Autoplay with oembed

[xf-]

I want to embed a video privacy-friendly in a website without loading until somebody presses play. At that moment the iframe source will be set and autoplay will start the video.

Modern browsers no longer allow video autoplay with sound – there is nothing we can do about that. Sorry.

@saerdnaer that's not true or not in all cases. I have a working website with up2date firefox and chromium working. Tested in private/incognito windows. Maybe something is different after it isn't started onload.

I use the attribute autoplay true with no source set. onclick the source is set.

You are in matrix or IRC? I would like to show you an example.
