At Wistia, we like to use looping autoplay videos to make high-quality GIF substitutes. Setting your video to loop is a great way to keep your viewers engaged, or to just have some interesting background movement. Videos set to Play with sound will display a thumbnail and play button in contexts where play with sound is blocked. For the best experience across all devices/browsers, we recommend the Muted option, or the Play sound if possible option.

Play sound if possible will enable the video to autoplay everywhere, silently where required, and with sound where permitted.Īutoplay with sound is currently blocked by default on mobile devices, Chrome, and Safari. Play with sound will begin playback with audio, which means that the video will only autoplay in some browsers (where autoplay with sound is allowed). Muted will play the entire video silently. You can choose to have the video play muted with a Click for Sound button, play Muted with no click for sound button (this is for autoplaying a silent video), Play with sound, or Play sound if possible.Ĭlick for Sound will autoplay the video in a muted state, with the option for the viewer to manually turn on the volume. There you’ll see a checkbox to Autoplay your video. To set your video to autoplay you’ll want to navigate to Controls in the Customize panel. Need to capture your viewer’s attention right at page load? Can’t wait for them to click play? Autoplay is your new best friend. Need to autoplay your videos to grab attention? Check that Autoplay box, where you can set your video to Click for sound button, Muted, Play with sound, or Play sound if possible.įor end behavior you can choose from three options: Pause on the last frame, Reset to the first frame, and Loop the video.
