Autoplay

Lesson 4 of 7 in Coddy's YouTube Video Player - HTML Project course.

It's possible to let your video start playing automatically when a user visits the page, to do so, add the autoplay=1 query parameter.

To combine multiple query properties separate them with &:

In some browsers, auto playing without muting the video is not allowed!

Challenge

Easy

Make your video also auto play.

Don't remove it's mute!

Try it yourself
