Lottie Animations won't play automatically when a separate video is set to play automatically

Windows 10 here.. 

 

  • Create a new artboard
  • Place a lottie animation set to play automatically, it works.
  • Add a rectangle and apply a video to it. Set it to play automatically.
  • Video works, but lottie no longer animates on start up.

 

I've tried attaching the XD file, but these forums won't let me: 
"The attachment's lottie.xd content type (application/octet-stream) does not match its file extension and has been removed."

Hi dreamache101

 

Thank you for reaching out. Lottie will not play automatically if a video is set to play automatically.

 

We would also request you to please ensure that you've checked the current limitation of Lottie files in XD here: https://helpx.adobe.com/xd/help/work-with-lottie-animations.html#limitations which might be causing the issue.

 

Let us know if you need further assistance. We would be happy to help. 

 

Thanks,

Harshika

OMG, 

 

Thank you so much, I was scracth my head about that Lottie animation was not playing, it is because you have set the auto playing video etc.
