Comments Autoplay

Written by TJ Hoffman

With the Comments Autoplay feature, you can play only the sections of your video that are tagged with a time-stamped or time-range comment. Enable the Comments Autoplay feature to reduce the total amount of video footage you have to watch and focus on the most important parts of your video.

When enabled, Comments Autoplay will play the portions of a video associated with time-stamped and time-range comments. The feature will start 10 seconds before your first time-stamp and then play either the portion of the video that spans from 10 seconds before a time-stamped comment to 10 seconds after the time-stamped comment OR it will play the entire time-range comment and then jump to the next time-stamp.

In order to enable Comments Autoplay, your video must be at least 1 minute long. 

Steps to Complete this task

To enable Comments Autoplay:

  1. Make sure your video contains time-stamped or time-range comments.

  2. Click the Comments Autoplay icon below the video. The icon will turn black when Comments Autoplay is enabled.

  3. The video will automatically begin playing either 10 seconds before the first time-stamp or at the beginning of the video if the first time-stamp is fewer than 10 seconds after the the start of the video.

  4. To disable Comments Autoplay, click the icon below the video.
