Automatically play free or already purchased content
See original GitHub issueThe Issue
Steps to reproduce
- Open a claim video / music ( maybe images and gifs too ).
- Click on play / open.
- Wait for the content…
Expected behaviour
There should be an option in settings to toggle this feature: I open a claim and then the video starts playing no need to wait or click to play, same for images or gifs and music. ( content already downloaded / purchased, obviously ) ^^
Also if I left before a video ends, it should trigger autoplay but:
The video should pick up where it left off (e.g. starting at 03:55, instead of at 00:00
Actual behaviour
Nothing, there isn’t an autoplay
feature 😛
Anything Else
I think this is also needed in other issues , so I’m connecting: https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-app/issues/491 https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-app/issues/579

I’m fine with an option to disable, but autoplay should be the default behavior. And I’d be fine releasing this without an option.
Regarding the loading component, I’d like the loading display for a video to give more feedback about the content itself, especially if autoplay is added. Currently the loading message is white text on a black background. If content autoplays, it will go immediately to this screen, with no display of the poster (the image for the video).
I think we want to probably still display the poster when content is loading if we add autoplay functionality. Additionally, we should make it possible to cancel/pause a video while it is still loading (pretty sure you can’t do this).
What do we want to happen if the video costs money? Prompt the user automatically for purchase? Don’t do anything?
I know there’s also a recent change to allow content under a certain LBC/USD to skip the purchase confirmation screen… Also need to decide if those should autoplay, but my guess is no.
