Autoplay YouTube Video?

[everyday09]

all you have to do is get rid of everything before the first "embed" and after the second "embed" til it looks like this below.

<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/s3iyAFFElb4" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed>

after that you add to the url "&autoplay=1"
like below

<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/s3iyAFFElb4&autoplay=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed>

Thanks for the useful tip, everyday09, but I found that you don't need to remove the "object" code, which is there to make the embed compatible with IE. You can just add "&autoplay=1" (without the quotes) to the end of both url's: the one within the object tag and the one within the embed tag.

Also, if you wanted to make the video or playlist loop just add &loop=1 after the original code (or after &autoplay=1 if you want both autoplay and loop.)


<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/s3iyAFFElb4&autoplay=1&loop=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed>

First I want to say Hi to everyone on this forum.
I'm new here and I'm glad I found this place.

I found the forum by doing a Google search with this searchterm "html code to make video autoplay"

Actually I was searching for an autoplay code to add to the HTML code I get from Screencast when I want to put a video I recored with Camtasia and uploaded to Screencast on my blog. (I hope this sentence is clear...

I added this code "&autoplay=1" to the URL in that code, but this does not work...

Does anyone knows if there is another way to do it?

Would be very helpful!

Thanks a lot,

Elmar

If you're just looking to loop videos for yourself, try http://www.infiniteyoutube.com

In the address bar, add the word "infinite" before the word "youtube". This is the easiest way to put Youtube videos on loop. When you are finished your address bar should be changed from:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMH0bHeiRNg

To

http://www.infiniteyoutube.com/watch?v=dMH0bHeiRNg


You can also go to http://www.infiniteyoutube.com and just paste in a link to the video or even search for videos.

If you couldn't get it to work you made a mistake with the code... there can be no space before the &autoplay=1" That is what should be added to the end of the script like shown above. There are no spaces and no extra quotations at the beginning... it is simply added on to the script:

<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/oXaUpoPJPTk&hl=en_US&fs=1&color1=0xcc2550&color2=0xe87a9f&autoplay=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed>

How do you make this video autoplay?

<embed id=VideoPlayback src=http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docid=-2956447426428748010&hl=en&fs=true style=width:400px;height:326px allowFullScreen=true allowScriptAccess=always type=application/x-shockwave-flash> </embed>

I can't seem to do it. Thanks.

I tried many times to debug this code. Please help me to auto-play this video.


<object width="480" height="390"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/AbUc68bTBmg?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/AbUc68bTBmg?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="390"></embed></object>[/code]

Answer to @jamesfrancisco

Code: Select all

<iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/v/AbUc68bTBmg&autoplay=1" width="480px" height="390px" scrolling="no" style="border-width: 0px;">Your browser does not support iframes.</iframe>

If you need words to wrap around this video, then you will need to specify align="left/right".

If you need to configure margins and padding, then add to the style attribute.

I have found that style="margin-left: -10px; margin-top: -10px; -moz-padding-start: 10px;"> works to make mine line-up the same on IE and FireFox. But I also use align="right" to make the words wrap the left side of my video.

You might need to tinker around with the different margins and padding options to get the video to appear correctly and exactly where you want it.

The &autoplay=1 only works on youtube URL's that have a "/v/" instead of "/embed/". ie.

THIS WORKS

<iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/v/AbUc68bTBmg&autoplay=1" width="480px" height="390px" scrolling="no" style="border-width: 0px;">Your browser does not support iframes.</iframe>

THIS DOES NOT WORK

<iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/AbUc68bTBmg&autoplay=1" width="480px" height="390px" scrolling="no" style="border-width: 0px;">Your browser does not support iframes.</iframe>

In fact, the second example doesn't even appear on the screen.

If you want your video to NOT autoplay, then add &autoplay=0 to the end of your URL without spaces.
Or simply remove &autoplay=1

Hi,
I managed to get the code sorted for iframe code to autoplay substituting ?autoplay for &autoplay.
What I would like to do now is as well as autoplay be able to loop play a youtube video . Are you aware of what amendment can be done to the iframe code for both these functions to happen.
Code I have at present is :-
<iframe title="YouTube video player" width="640" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/OKQEpzJTUio?autoplay=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe

Thanks Alan

[leedssocialclubs]

Sorted this now. Used the code suggested in an above posting to substitute v for embed and added &autoplay=1&loop=1

Code Used for this:-
<iframe title="YouTube video player" width="640" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/OKQEpzJTUio&autoplay=1&loop=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

I NEED SOMEONE TO MAKE THIS EMBED AUTO PLAY

[Bfreshhhx]

I am trying to get a youtube video to autoplay on my tumblr page. I decreased the size of it to where its just the play/pause button now I just need it to autoplay please help thanks.

heres my code.

<iframe title="YouTube video player" width="32" height="28" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/6AmJX4zUrUA" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

[Bannana97]

If &autoplay=1 does not work, try ?autoplay=1 - one will have to work.

Example:

Code: Select all
