I may have missed if anyone mentioned this in other replies but why not just Mute the site in settings in Chrome? It's drastic and means you'll need to open posted videos in their native site (YouTube, vimeo etc) but it works.

At this point I've done all I can do at my end. The house video that shows our mag cover being created is set to mute at two separate places. It's an embed directly from Youtube. It's set to be muted there. The software we use to embed it also sets it to mute. So at this point to find the issue I need anyone who is still getting the problem to use this form as it asks for specific info about your browser. We've tried here but we can't replicate the issue so it may be something with specific browsers. It may not. But we'll only find out if we collect that information.

Most definitely not fixed as of this morning. Scantily clad ladies, too, which seems a little off trend

I got a blurt of polish the otherday. I think it was toothpaste.

Scantily clad ladies sounds terrible

Thanks for the vol/dnd tip in a mildly patronising/accusatory tone, I wasnt expecting it off the back of a jokey passing comment. Obviously I generally have the phone on silent at appropriate times, fully familiar with how phones work thanks, but sometimes need vol up in the day... And then life happens and you maybe just fail to make the change back, then get ambushed by some random AD at inappropriate times. Hope that clears things up.

Yup, loud autoplay ad just popped up now, before I could even log in. Caused browser to freeze too.
On Android phone/chrome browser.
Seems to be a lot of 'we've done all we can do, must be your fault'.
Not going to cancel my subscription or anything, but it makes the user experience less than enjoyable.

A load of wimmins in underwear and blaring music. Really, it not 1999 anymore, any ad that appears and makes noise is totally unacceptable these days.

I had it yesterday. Was involved in a dull MS Teams meeting so thought I would see what’s going on here.

Next thing music blasting out of my laptop speakers for everyone in the meeting to hear. Yes school boy error I should have gone on mute.

No idea what it was, had to close window immediately.

PC - Chrome

Or you could set a schedule for it. Then you never need to touch it again. Let alone have to remember to 'change back' anything.

Which is what I said. And what you presumably already knew as you're seemingly a previously undisclosed expert. So I can only conclude that you're wilfully making things more difficult for yourself.

I was trying to help, albeit in an irreverent fashion.

The Comments / Posts refer to the rest of the site, not here. You need to look under the 'Forums' section.
