Hi, I opened my new site without fanfare a couple of days ago. The landing page has a hero video banner that uses the Doobox Play stack inside the Foundry Reveal stack.
The video show sunrise over Earth from space. I designed the banner to fade in, then the video should play the sunrise. But it’s delaying far too long, and people aren’t seeing the sunrise - which is the whole point of the video.
If you’re patient for a few seconds, you WILL see it. It plays perfectly in RW8 preview mode.
All software is the latest versions.

Thanks for your time and attention.
Namaste,
David.
@DavidBourke I’m not seeing anything slow in the video. Takes about 6 seconds to fully play … but given the nature of the video that seems about right. Is it taking longer for you?
Video doesn’t play at all on mobile, and I think you should take a look at the Foundry Margins stack, as your content is very thin.
Thanks for responding.
The sun never rises - I wait 40-90 seconds. Viewing in Safari 14.1.1 on a 2017 MacBook Pro running Mojave 10.14.6, and in Safari 14.1.1 on a 2021 maxed-out iMac Pro Intel running Big Sur 11.4.
This is starting to look like an ISP issue, I suspect.
Thanks for responding.
Since this site supplies nothing that can be used or even downloaded on a phone or tablet, I deliberately didn’t do mobile versions in order to force people to use a PC to view it.
No problem. It’s your call 
Video works perfectly on my Mac.

Thanks! That definitely makes it an ISP issue.
Works for me on desktop, fades in an the sun rises.
Thanks for confirming this. I would never have suspected that an ISP could be the source of a problem like this. I’m based in Thailand, and friends in America and the UK say it works fine for them, too.
