This is driving me crazy trying to research into this, I'd love this exact thing.
My main page contains many image blocks, a sort of folio, each image has caption overlays on hover with a click-through that takes you to the relevant page.
I'd love each image block to have an autoplay-video-on-hover function, that also displays the caption.
I've found custom CSS that auto-plays videos, but only from a video block. Video blocks do not have any 'click-through' options available to go to a descriptive page, at least on the template I'm using (Flatiron). Maddening. 
I cannot find a straight forward description of how to achieve auto play video on hover (from an image block) anywhere.
Any help/code is greatly appreciated!

I need this too. 

I'm using the theme Jasper and on my project thumbnail blocks (on homepage) I'd like still images that when you hover over a video plays. Is this possible?
 
Thank you

@sansari I found this article and it helped me a lot (even though it's for 7.0 and I'm using 7.1) https://beatrizcaraballo.com/blog/loading-background. I was using all black backgrounds and even though i wasn't using any of the light ones at all it was still flashing white when changing pages.
I changed the Main color and Overlay color on all the light background options to black and it fixed my problem. I'm not sure if that will work for all issues but perhaps it will help with yours too. 

Can you share link to site in screenshot? We can help easier
