Autoplay & Sound
Sound, autoplay, and speed — your rules.
Decide exactly how your video plays: muted by default, sound-on for CTV, autoplay on scroll, or a viewer-controlled experience. VideoNest handles browser compliance automatically — no workarounds needed.
Capabilities
Every playback setting, under your control
Autoplay on or off
Set a global default for your channel, then override per-video. Content that should play immediately does. Content that shouldn't, doesn't.
Muted autoplay
Browsers block sound-on autoplay by default. VideoNest handles this correctly — activates muted, surfaces a clear unmute control the viewer can tap or click.
Sound-on autoplay
For CTV apps, interstitials, and full-page experiences, sound-on autoplay is available — configured at the placement level, not globally.
Speed controls
Viewers can adjust playback speed from 0.5× to 2×. Configurable per player — enable for content where it adds value, disable where it doesn't.
Preference persistence
When a viewer mutes or adjusts speed, that preference is remembered. The next video they watch respects their choice automatically.
Per-placement overrides
Override any global setting at the embed level. A homepage hero plays differently than an article sidebar — configure each independently.
