   # Bug Report
   
   ## Problem
   I want to play/autoplay an inline video on a secondary screen (Airplay).
   Test Project: [Looper.zip](https://github.com/apache/cordova-ios/files/5784267/Looper.zip)
   
   ### What is expected to happen?
   Once the extended screen (airplay) launches, the inline video should load and autoplay.
   
   ### What does actually happen?
   Once the extended screen (airplay) launches, the inline video appears to load, but does not autoplay.
   
   ## Information
   My config.xml contains the following preferences:
   `<preference name="AllowInlineMediaPlayback" value="true" />`
   `<preference name="MediaTypesRequiringUserActionForPlayback" value="none" />`
   And my external page contains this tag:
   `<video src="img/fireandiceocean.mp4" preload autoplay playsinline loop />`
   
   _The preferences do not appear to apply to the secondary webview._
   
   I've modified the [cordova-plugin-wkwebview-external-screen](https://github.com/josiaho/cordova-plugin-wkwebview-external-screen) plugin in [WKWebViewExternalScreen.m](https://github.com/josiaho/cordova-plugin-wkwebview-external-screen/blob/master/src/ios/WKWebViewExternalScreen.m) with the following with no avail:
   
   ```
   - (WKWebView*)getWebView {
       if (!self.externalWebView) {
           UIScreen* externalScreen = [[UIScreen screens] objectAtIndex: 1];
           CGRect screenBounds = externalScreen.bounds;
   
           self.externalWebView = [[WKWebView alloc] initWithFrame: screenBounds configuration: [[WKWebViewConfiguration alloc] init]];
   
           // I ADDED THESE TWO LINES
           self.externalWebView.configuration.allowsInlineMediaPlayback = YES;// Updated 'true' to 'YES'
           self.externalWebView.configuration.mediaTypesRequiringUserActionForPlayback = WKAudiovisualMediaTypeNone;
   
           self.externalWindow = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame: screenBounds];
   
           self.externalWindow.screen = externalScreen;
           self.externalWindow.clipsToBounds = YES;
           [self.externalWindow addSubview:self.externalWebView];
           [self.externalWindow makeKeyAndVisible];
           self.externalWindow.hidden = NO;
       }
       return self.externalWebView;
   }
   ```
   
   Any thoughts?
