The easiest way to play videos in HTML, is to use Youtube.

Struggling with Video Formats?

Converting videos to different formats can be difficult and time-consuming.

An easir solution is to let Youtube play the videos in your web page.

Youtube Video id

Youtube will display an id (like tgbNymZ7vqY), when you save (or play) a video.

You can use this id, and refer to your video in the HTML code.

Playing a Youtube Video in HTML

To play your video on a web page, do the following:

• Upload the video to Youtube
• Take a note of the video id
• Define an <iframe> element in your web page
• Let the src attribute point to the video URL
• Use the width and height attributes to specify the dimension of the player
• Add any other parameters to the URL (see below)

Youtube Autoplay + Mute

You can let your video start automatically when a user visits the page, by adding autoplay=1 to the YouTube URL. However, automatically starting a video is annoying for your visitors!

Note: Chromium browsers do not allow autoplay in most cases. However, muted autoplay is always allowed.

Add mute=1 after autoplay=1 to let your video start playing autoplay (but muted).

Youtube Playlist

A comma separated list of videos to play (in addition to the original URL).

Youtube Loop

Add playlist=videoID and loop=1 to let your video loop forever.

loop=0 (default) - The video will play only once.

loop=1 - The video will loop (forever).
