[🐛] Broken Autoplay in video ads

[perrusha98]

What happened?

HI.

I need your help to know if this is a mistake of mine or of the admob library, but when ads in rectangular format that contain videos are loaded, they are not loaded until the user has some type of interaction on the screen (Example: scroll).

I tried to isolate any other library to minimize the errors but even running only a new APP with the ads this error continues to occur.

video.mp4

Platforms

Only on Android
