Youtube Autoplay API Change?

I just found out, that the autoplay setting has no effect on youtube videos anymore. No matter if 0 or 1 is passed to the parameter, it keeps starting it. In the API reference i couldn't find anything but on internet some people using "0" instead of 0 and some using ?autoplay instead of &autoplay..... nothing worked for me. The only way to stop it to autoplay by default was to remove the parameter (&autoplay=#autoplay#) from the "defines" in /modules/boonex/videos/classes/BxVideosConfig.php

I can reproduce on demo.boonex.com

Excellent!!!!

Was a big pain when a member posted a youtube to profile and I have the audio set to "auto-play."

Its very iimportant for me, thanks for your help!

Works fine!

Hello

Thanks for reporting. This issue will be fixed in the next Dolphin version.

If someone needs fix now, then one should do the following:

edit "modules/boonex/videos/classes/BxVideosConfig.php", replace "&autoplay=#autoplay#" with "#autoplay#" everywhere in this file, save and close it.

edit "modules/boonex/videos/classes/BxVideosTemplate.php", replace the following code:

$sPlayer = str_replace("#autoplay#", (getSettingValue("video", "autoPlay") == TRUE_VAL ? "1" : "0"), $sPlayer);

with this one:

$sPlayer = str_replace("#autoplay#", (getSettingValue("video", "autoPlay") == TRUE_VAL ? "&autoplay=1" : ""), $sPlayer);

As you can see youtube API hasn't changed regarding this option anyhow and I think it's some kind of embedded player bug that possibly will be fixed soon on their side.
