-----------------------------------
Summary: HTML5 video playback in iOS is muted by ringer switch
Key: CB-7708
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-7708
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 3.5.0
Environment: iOS 7, iOS 8
Reporter: Sterling Nelson
Priority: Minor
We've got a Cordova based iOS app (targeted for iOS7 and 8) that plays back
a fair amount of media content as HTML5 video. We've been having issues
with video not playing sound for some users. I suspect some of the issues
are related to device ringers being set to mute (which does not seem to affect
video playback in Safari), and would like to cross these cases out. From my
perspective it'd be nice if behavior of the HTML5 video element in iOS WebViews
matched its Safari behavior.
I managed to get the behavior I would like by fiddling with the Cordova
default view controller, but I would rather not modify Cordova's controllers in
place (in part because it seems wrong, but mostly because we'd like to be able
to re-build our Cordova app without having to worry
about modifying library files.)
Is there currently something I should configure to have Cordova just do this
for me? I see that the Media plugin does something similar to this, but
couldn't find anything like it documented for video. If this is not currently
set-able, are there particular plans to implement (or never do so)?
We're using Cordova 3.5.0-0.2.7. I'm happy to provide more info about the
fiddling I've done thus far.
Thanks!
