Hi @leoking ,

The best solution for autoplaying a video :

Place below tag in Video tag :-

Note:

  • autoplay: starts the video automatically
  • muted: required for autoplay to work in most browsers
  • loop: keeps it playing continuously
  • playsinline: needed for iOS mobile playback without fullscreen
  • Make sure your site is using HTTPS and the video is in MP4 format for best compatibility.

After applying if this works , please test once on all devices and search engines .

Thanks !
