Hello,

We're working on a masthead unit which moves the video out of screen when it ends. However, this works fine on Chrome and Firefox, however, on Safari Version 9.1 (11601.5.17.1), the video will end but it goes back to the poster frame. Checking the console, it is in fact invoking "YouTube end" but the animation won't trigger.

Has anyone ran into his issue?

Thanks!

Hi Lucas,

Do you have any animation delay in your ad? We are aware that there is an issue in Safari with using the delay in timeline animation. Safari  does pause animations when the tab loses focus, but depending on whether the animation had a delay or not, and whether the tab lost focus while the animation was in its delay period, it doesn't restart the animation as expected, so in preview the animation looks broken.

One way to fix the file is to replace the delay with empty keyframes. 

If you don't have any delay animation  in the Ad then please send us your source file ( before publish ) so we can debug this further at gwd-s...@google.com

Thanks
