I'm trying to have a short video play when going to my web page. I'd like it to play automatically and on a loop. I can't get this to work with Rocketcake.

I've added my video by inserting an HTML5 Video box, I've selected "play" and "loop" from the left bar for the video. When I go to preview, it is just a black box. I've tried with multiple browsers and none work.

It does work if I add the controller option. I can then play and stop, etc. I don't want that though. I just want it to play automatically and on a loop. This is the html it says for that section:

<video id="video_67c5a5c8" src="rc_images/example.mp4" autoplay="autoplay" loop="true" >
Your browser does not support the video element.
</video>
</div>

What am I doing wrong? How can I fix it? Thanks for any help.

Most browsers stopped supporting autoplaying a video, unless it is muted.
So if you right click the video, select "Html code...", then "additional attributes" and enter

 muted


(note the space in front of the word, it's important)

Then it should work.

That seemed to do the trick. Thanks!
