Autoplay/Looping Video for Mobile Version

Hi,

I have spent the last days researching this and hope I have not overlooked a topic that might deal with my issue (but couldn't find a solution so far..). I have set up my squarespace homepage (version 7.1) and have created a short motion graphic/video (uploaded on youtube) that I would like to autoplay when someone goes to my homepage. I started by just adding the motion graphic as a background video, which worked on the desktop version but not on the mobile version (the format was too big and cut off the graphic and it neither would depict when accessing the page from the phone).

I then changed my plan and just used a custom embed code with autoplay and loop included in an embed box, which worked on the desktop version as well as the mobile view in the squarespace admin space but not when I actually accessed the page via my mobile (it would just display the box and I had to click on play for the browser to open an extra tab and play the graphic).

Here is what my ideal outcome would be: I would love an autoplay, autoloop graphic that fits on the screen in the mobile version without seeing a frame around the box or having to press play. I have no real coding experience and mainly worked with basic embed codes. If anyone can help me with my question, I would be very grateful.

Many thanks in advance.
