I am using background videos here:

> **[Physiotherapie & Ergotherapie in der Südstadt](https://physiotherapie-rohland.de)**
>
> In persönlicher Atmosphäre behandeln wir Sie ohne lange Wartezeiten.

On all Browsers, the video start and play without any problems. On Safari 15, the videos start to play and then get stuck. Only after a while they begin to play. It seems to work well with any previous safari version. I did try several stacks for video background play and did try to save videos with e.g. handbrake to enable web playing. To no avail.

Has anybody experienced similar or has a tip of what to do?

Thanks,  
Jan

Just looked and it’s working fine with Safari 15 on Big Sur for me (Macbook Pro 2016)
