![]() ![]() My problem is that Flickr isn't respecting the autoplay video settings here: If you visit any page on Flickr besides that one, and log-in, you shouldn't see the video at all. There's a log-in popup, but the video is here: ![]() You can click to sign in from any page on flickr, but it will take you to a sign-on page." I find it easiest to start there, as I log-off at the end of every session. The home page is not the sign on page, it just contains a sign-on link. You can click to sign in from any page on flickr, but it will take you to a sign-on page. It autoplayed for me in Chrome just now when I tested. To clarify, Flickr doesn't have a "login page". Both on the login page, and on the home page. I usually remember the time zone thingie. I have no way of influencing the setup of the classroom or library computers, and those are obviously the ones where auto-playing can be most disruptive. #FLICKR UPLOADR ANNOYING SOUND WINDOWS#The things in common between all the computers I've used are Firefox (likely multiple versions) and Windows (XP and 7). To be fair, it is only just past 8am PST. Thanks to people who have shown me a way round. Thanks for pointing out the spelling typos, but I think you get the gist. Perhaps staff will drop in here later today (though they seem to be largely ignoring the forum this morning, even in the official topics). I can only test here on two computers and a handful of browsers.) Using Firefox on Windows classroom, office, home computer, laptop - auto-plays everywhere. It auto-plays for me when I go to that page. The video on that page doesn't auto-play for me, either. It waited for me to click the play button. On that page, there's a video, but it doesn't auto-play. Oh, then you might be talking about a different page than I was. "It caused quite a knee-jerk reaction when suddenly was blasting sound from the speakers in the classroom and I had to apologize to the students" If I had known, I would not have gone there, or gone to a different URL, or muted the sound system, or all of those, but this came out of nowhere. It caused quite a knee-jerk reaction when suddenly was blasting sound from the speakers in the classroom and I had to apologize to the students. I routinely use Flickr to search for and find pictures for class materials and was trying to multitask by updating a lecture while proctoring an exam. Oh, I'll be sure to post it in Flickr Ideas if nobody else has done so yet. ![]() Maybe that explains why they haven't left yet. (As I said in my response above, yesterday.) Log in from your photostream, or your profile, or your favorites page, or any other page on Flickr. You can log in from any Flickr page that's been the case for a couple of years now. "At least provide an optional non video log in page" You can log in from this page, for example "" ![]() Why insert a video?Īt least provide an optional non video log in page. So now, if I am listening to music and decide to log into Flickr, I have a stupid unwanted message/video I have to pause.įlickr is primary a photo upload site, videos are available, but rare. The video ? this thread ? life in general ?Ĭannot think of a better intensive to leave Flickr. I don't mind be one-upped when the suggestion is a good one. So set your bookmark to be your photostream, or your Recent Activity page, or something else. On Flickr, you can sign in from any page of the site. Just don't go to that page when you're not logged in. "(I'm talking about when not logged in yet)" Hairlover edited this topic 120 months ago. Most modern keyboards have a "mute" button. Right now, all you can do is hit the "pause" button." Or, you could turn the sound off before logging into Flickr. If you don't want the video ad to play when logged out, you may want to offer that suggestion in Flickr Ideas. (I'm talking about when not logged in yet.) That is unexpected, extremely annoying and puts on my "don't open while at work" list. Please get rid of the video ad on, or at least make it so sound is opt-in and not immediately starting to play when opening that page.
