I am attending a BlueJeans Event and I see the message:

Browser's autoplay policy is blocking BlueJeans Event videos.

enter image description here

(in case anyone is concerned about privacy, the image is publicly accessible)

How can I configure Chrome so that it doesn't block BlueJeans Event videos?

    (1) When the video is playing, do you see a small switch at the bottom of the video that allows autoplay? (2) Try invoking Chrome with the parameter --autoplay-policy=no-user-gesture-required.

Chrome has been moving away from allowing autoplay of any kind, and successive version have been laying down strict rules.

I have listed below one solution, but note that successive versions of Chrome might invalidate it.

Disable autoplay policy

This is done by running Chrome with the following parameter:

chrome.exe --autoplay-policy=no-user-gesture-required

You might need to specify the full path for chrome.exe.

If this works, note that this will enable autoplay on all websites.

You could also try an extension like AutoplayStopper. In its menu, it has an option to enable autoplay for a website. It worked for me to get autoplay working on a different website, not sure if it'll do anything here, but worth trying as that's more comfortable than relaunching Chrome with a specific flag.
