Document Classes ⇒ Auto-play for Movie in Presentation

[djpbarry]

Hello all,

I'm putting together a presentation with beamer, but I can't get movies to auto-play. Anybody had a similar problem? Here's a MWE of my code:

Run LaTeX here

Any ideas?

I am having the same problem when I compile on my Mac, but when I compile on my PC, it plays the movie automatically. It seems that despite the effort to make LaTeX cross platform, there are still some bugs.

[…] It seems that despite the effort to make LaTeX cross platform, there are still some bugs.

Not so much a matter of LaTeX, but more one of the used viewer. Furthermore movie15 is obsolete and should be replaced by media9.
