Hi.
I have a song, that I would like to have looped, but I cant really figure out what the problem is. Currently it's only playing a single time and then stops with no loop.
The code is as follows
<embed name="bosse" src="bosse.mp3" loop="true" autostart="true" style="visibility:hidden;"/>
Try the HTML5 Audio control:
<audio controls loop autoplay hidden>
<source src="bosse.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">
Your browser does not support the audio element.
</audio>
In the first tag, it specifies loop, autoplay, and hidden. The Your browser does not support the audio element. part is for if the audio controls is not supported by the browser, however, Firefox, Chrome, IE and Safari, as well as Opera all support this, according to W3Schools.

I want an mp3 file to play automatically when the page loads, but that doesn't happen.. the file only plays when I press the play button.. how do I get it to play automatically?
<audio controls autoplay>
<source src="muzic.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">
<p>If you can read this, your browser does not support the audio element.</p>
</audio>
It works with another browser, but is there any way to make autoplay work in Chrome?
Have you tried other browsers?
This should help

Not all browsers support this feature because the code you have written is correct. However, there is another javascript trick that can be used I will suggest you try to use that.
Autoplay mode should be added to the opening tag of your code, this is widely supported by Chrome and FF
You only need to change that mpeg to mp3. Just like this:
<audio controls autoplay>
<source src="muzic.mp3" type="audio/mp3">
<p>If you can read this, your browser does not support the audio element.</p>
</audio>
it will work
There are two things that could be wrong.
1) your browser doesn’t support it
2) your file format “mpeg” should be “mp3”
I'm trying to play an external HTML5 video within a webOS web application. According to this question, webOS should support .mp4 video, but whenever I try to play a HTML5 video within my application, the video simply won't load/play. My code (for testing purposes):
<video id="demo-video" autoplay muted loop>
<source src="http://mirrors.standaloneinstaller.com/video-sample/jellyfish-25-mbps-hd-hevc.mp4"
type="video/mp4">
Your Smart TV does not support the current video format (MP4)
</video>
I've tried different sources, but none of them seem to work. When testing in a browser, it does work, but when opening the application on a webOS Smart TV, nothing happens. Even trying to play a local .mp4 file doesn't work.
I found out that .play() on the video element returns a Promise with status pending. Strange behaviour and reloading the source doesn't fix the problem.
I found the problem: it had something to do with the styling I applied on the <video> element. When developing, Chrome showed the video just fine. But apparently, border-radius is not allowed? At least not in the version of Chrome used on the Smart TV and emulator. So if you're experiencing the same problem, check for styling that may cause the video not to play.
Try adding width and height attributes to your video tag. The video works on my TV.
<video id="demo-video" width="1920" height="1080" autoplay muted loop>
<source src="http://mirrors.standaloneinstaller.com/video-sample/jellyfish-25-mbps-hd-hevc.mp4" type="video/mp4">
Your Smart TV does not support the current video format (MP4)

I'm trying to create a HTML5 video background for a website but I cannot seem to get it to work on Safari. Does anyone have any ideas?
Here's the HTML video tags I'm using
<video id="bgVideo" class="bg__video" autoplay loop>
<source src="./vid/Sample_Vid.ogv" type="video/ogv">
<source src="./vid/Sample_Vid.m4v" type="video/m4v">
<source src="./vid/Sample_Vid.webm" type="video/webm">
</video>
I've tried adding a script tag under it to start playing the video with JS but that's not helped either.
document.getElementById("bgVideo").play();
When I inspect the page it looks like the video element is taking up space in the DOM but it's just invisible basically.
I've also tried opening the .m4v files directly in the browser & it plays it there so I assume the file isn't an issue. These were all generated from easyhtml5video.com
I also have the Modernizer script to detect if autoplay is enabled for the browser which I've had to alter based on a pull request in the github repo as it was always saying that Safari doesn't support autoplay otherwise.
The test site I've setup is http://treetopia.neilnand.co.uk/
The supported video format for Safari is mp4 with H.264 encoding. (you have a .m4v extension and file type)
If video does not has sound - use
document.getElementById("bgVideo").volume = 0;
Safari don't allow autoplay for videos with sound.
I'm having trouble making an MP4 video autoplay in my HTML5 page in IE9.
From reading other stack overflow posts on the subject I know that it should autoplay, especially as I've already used qt-faststart on the video to move the file info to the headers, but all I'm getting is the fallback image when I look at the page in IE9 (XP).
I'm wondering if the fact that there is no audio track at all on the video could be causing IE9 to not want to autostart it? Wouldn't be the quirkiest thing IE had ever done...
The code for my video element is as follows:
<video autoplay loop preload width="1200" height="510" poster="/path/to/header-video-poster.png" class="hero__subsection__image">
<source src="/path/to/video.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<img src="/path/to/header-video-poster.png" alt="Fallback">
</video>
On the front page of this website, there is a sticky post titled "National Radio Advertising Campaign ForACURE" which contains the following HTML:
<embed type="audio/x-wav" src="http://www.foracure.org.au/wp-content/uploads/FOR-A-CURE-RADIO-Daniel-45sec.mp3" autoplay="false" height="20" width="200" autostart="false">
However, when I load this website in Chrome v31.0.1650.57 m, the audio plays automatically, even though both autoplay and autostart are set to false.
Is there a better cross browser method of embedding this audio?
Chrome doesn't seem to understand true and false.
Use autostart="1" and autostart="0" instead.

<video width="320" height="240" controls autoplay>
<source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4"> Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>
Remove autoplay
if you want to disable auto playing video.
Just set using JS as follows:
<script>
var vid = document.getElementById("myVideo");
vid.autoplay = false;
vid.load();
</script>
Set true to turn on autoplay. Set false to turn off autoplay.

None of the video settings posted above worked in modern browsers I tested (like Firefox) using the embed or object elements in HTML5. For video or audio elements they did stop autoplay. For embed and object they did not.
I tested this using the embed and object elements using several different media types as well as HTML attributes (like autostart and autoplay). These videos always played regardless of any combination of settings in several browsers. Again, this was not an issue using the newer HTML5 video or audio elements, just when using embed and object.
It turns out the new browser settings for video "autoplay" have changed. Firefox will now ignore the autoplay attributes on these tags and play videos anyway unless you explicitly set to "block audio and video" autoplay in your browser settings.
To do this in Firefox I have posted the settings below:
Open up your Firefox Browser, click the menu button, and select "Options"
Select the "Privacy & Security" panel and scroll down to the "Permissions" section
Find "Autoplay" and click the "Settings" button. In the dropdown change it to block audio and video. The default is just audio.
Your videos will NOT autoplay now when displaying videos in web pages using object or embed elements.
Just change the mime type to: type="audio/mpeg", this way chrome will honor the autostart="false" parameter.
I had assumed that autoplay="false" applied to all other browsers, besides Chrome, so I added
autoplay="false" autostart="0"
to each video tag. With six videos on the page it was a tower of bable (didn't work).
The solution is to remove autoplay entirely and just add
autostart="0"
to each video tag. This worked for Chrome, Firefox, and MS Edge.
Apparently the lack of an autoplay attribute is sufficient for the other browsers.
This will prevent browser from auto playing audio.
HTML
<audio type="audio/wav" id="audio" autoplay="false" autostart="false"></audio>
jQuery
$('#audio').attr("src","path_to_audio.wav");
$('#audio').play();
<embed ... autostart="0">
Replace false with 0
I removed "autoplay" and "autostart", it worked
This is my code:
<video width="427" height="240" controls >
<source src="/abc.mp4" type="video/mp4">
</video>
add attribute controls to video tag. It worked on my code
the below codes helped me with the same problem.
Let me know if it helped.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<audio controls>
<source src="YOUR AUDIO FILE" type="audio/mpeg">
Your browser does not support the audio element.
</audio>
</body>
</html>
The problem is your plugin. To solve this is to only enter this address:
chrome://flags/#enable-NPAPI
Click activate NPAPI, and finally restart at the bottom of the page.
