Activate Autoplay for Cloud PBX

In order to be able to play sound on the page without user interaction you must allow “autoplay” in the browser.  

Chrome

Option 1: Automatic autoplay – Media Engagement Index (MEI)

The MEI measures an individual’s propensity to consume media on a site. Chrome’s current approach is a ratio of visits to significant media playback events per origin:

  • Consumption of the media (audio/video) must be greater than 7 seconds.

  • Audio must be present and unmuted.

  • Tab with video is active.

  • Size of the video (in px) must be greater than 200×140.

From that, Chrome calculates a media engagement score which is highest on sites where media is played on a regular basis. When it is high enough, media playback is allowed to autoplay on desktop only.

Option 2: Manually allow autoplay on page

  1. Go to the chrome://settings/content/sound
  2. Click on the “Add” button near “Allow” section:
  3. Add site on which autoplay should be allowed (e.g.: pbx.tenios.com) and click “Add” button

  4. Click the “Settings ” button to the right of Autoplay.

  5. Select Allow Audio and Video in the Status drop-down for any of the websites.
