DMS 2 Revslider Videos Not Loading in Chrome

[sethoof 3]

After the last update, my header video in revslider on my homepage started showing up in black on Chrome.  It still works in firefox, but doesnt load in Chrome.  Can someone please let me know if there is something I can do to fix this update collateral damage?

Hey Seth,

 

It might be that you need to 're-add' the video to the canvas area.  Also, make sure you have both mp4 and ogg formats for maximum compatibility.

Just tried it.  I added a new rev slider and put in the videos, but that stil l didnt work. I use both video formats and have since I first installed the erv slider.  It works fine on firefox, but is black on chrome.

Apologies for this, its a bug in the stable release of Google Chrome browser. If you update to Google Canary ( the testing version ) your site works fine, so hopefully this will be fixed when they eventually release an update.

As a bandaid you could add a default image background to the element so your chrome users wont just get a big black rectangle.
