GIFs muted until end of playback

alerque opened this issue 8 years ago · 5 comments

I'm having a hard time with media items attached to tweets. On regular frustration is that GIFs start as muted (probably a good thing) but I am unable to unmute them until they reach the end of playback. At that point the unmute works and I can restart playback at the beginning and watch with sound.

As if GIFs weren't generally a waste of time anyway, now even the ones I do open take 2× the time to view :(

How do you unmute them? If I tap on the crossed out microphone symbol nothing happens.

Wait-- GIFs don't have sound. Did you mean videos?

@mkody It's not apparent in Twitnuker what the media type is for any given attachment, but yes obviously these would be something other that plain GIFs.

@okoetter One they read the end, I can tap (twice) on the mute icon and it unmutes, then I rewind to the beginning to hear....

Awesome! Will be looking for it in the next Play store release.
