Audio won't autoplay - html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<audio controls autoplay>
<source src="Rick Roll.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">
</audio>
</body>
</html>
For some reason, it won't play automatically. Is it because the file is too big?

Media like video or audio will not play automatically anymore. This is a security thing. In order to play the media, user must interact with the page, like with a click.

There is a space in your src that is invalid.
<source src="Rick Roll.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">
Try for fix that(if is this):
<source src="RickRoll.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">

HTML audio won't play file but download works

I feel like I have tried everything.
I have the following:
<audio controls ng-src="https://myS3routeToFile" class="w-full"></audio>
I have also tried the following variation:
<audio controls>
<source src="https://myS3routeToFile" type="audio/mpeg">
Your browser does not support the audio element.
</audio>
I am able to press download it does download the file correctly.
What am I doing wrong?
Use the second version and add an ogg version of your audio file to make it complatble with all browsers.
<audio controls>
<source src="your_file.ogg" type="audio/ogg">
<source src="your_file.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">

Open video in default media player in HTML

I am trying to open a video in my default media player. I have inserted video hyperlinks in my HTML document.
When I click on the hyperlink, instead of opening the video, it downloads the video.
I want the hyperlink to open the video in the user's default media player without downloading the video.
This is what I have so far:

Please advise. Thank you.
This is how you can use video tag in html5:
code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<video width="400" controls>
<source src="mov_bbb.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="mov_bbb.ogg" type="video/ogg">
Your browser does not support HTML5 video.
</video>

That's simply not how you embed video in html5. This is:
<video width="320" height="240" controls>
<source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg">
Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>
You can't open the default media player without downloading, but if you want you can make a page with just a html5 video player like Mayers said.

Background music HTML - How do I make it play instantaneously when page is loaded?

So I've written this piece of music that I would like as background music when browsing my webpage. You should be able to pause it, but I'd like it to play up instantaneously to get some good vibes!
This is my code so far:
<audio controls>
<source src="music.mp3" type="audio/ogg">
</audio>
I get it to play, but as I said - I want it to start play automatically when you load the page!
Thanks in advance!
Add the attribute autoplay
<audio controls autoplay>
<source src="music.mp3" type="audio/ogg">
</audio>
EDIT And to loop it:
<audio controls autoplay loop>
<source src="music.mp3" type="audio/ogg">
</audio>

HTML video not working

I am trying to get a video to play locally but it isn't working. the file is 'wildlife.mp4,' however, it doesn't play it is just a blank video box? Any help will be much appreciated, thanks.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>video</title>

<video width="320" height="240" controls>
<source src="wildlife.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="wildlife.ogg" type="video/ogg">
Your browser does not support the video tag.

Video tag is not closed.
Add autoplay if you want the video to play automatically.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>video</title>
</head>
<body>
<video width="320" autoplay="autoplay" height="240" controls>
<source src="wildlife.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="wildlife.ogg" type="video/ogg">
Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>
</body>
</html>
If you are running the script on Windows the browser can check the file type associated with the video ( wildlife.mp4 ). On my system ( W7) I clicked the -Properties- on the video file and CHANGed the -Type of file- from VLC (which is the default on my system) to Windows Media player and all was sorted.
Hope this helps.
