How to put videos on loop and auto play with HTML/CSS?

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone! 

I wanted to change a few things from the videos with a custom htlm/css code. I want to remove the play arrow from the videos and I want to make these have autoplay and loop. 

 

I also have the specific html embed codes but I have no idea how to place these inside the HTML code.


Any suggestions? I appreciate the replies and thanks in advance.

Hey! Thank for the reply @tuanphan

Here is the page I am talking about https://www.alanvidali.com/videos

 

So this is one of the links of the place where I host the website.

https://streamable.com/gpqiln

 

The embed code from the video hosting site is the following:

 

<div style="width:100%;height:0px;position:relative;padding-bottom:56.250%;"><iframe src="https://streamable.com/e/gpqiln" frameborder="0" width="100%" height="100%" allowfullscreen style="width:100%;height:100%;position:absolute;left:0px;top:0px;overflow:hidden;"></iframe></div>

 

I have no idea where to place and how to place this in the CSS/HTML custom code editor.

 

Thanks again for taking a look and I appreciate the support!

 

Cheers!

With play icon, add to Home > Design > Custom CSS

svg.sqsVideoBlockPlaceholder-play {
    display: none;
}

With autoplay, try edit your code to this

<div style="width:100%;height:0px;position:relative;padding-bottom:56.250%;"><iframe src="https://streamable.com/e/gpqiln" frameborder="0" width="100%" height="100%" allowfullscreen style="width:100%;height:100%;position:absolute;left:0px;top:0px;overflow:hidden;" autoplay loop></iframe></div>

If this can't help, I have no idea :(

Hi @Vidali,

This is a bit easer if you have not found out a way.  I'm using Vimeo, and I have used the below iframe inside Squarespace's video block.  But instead of adding the link, you can click <>  and insert this code.  

I am using it on our new SquareKicker website for our learn page here:  https://squarekicker.com/features

Just swap out the vimeo number for yours.  See screenshot below for example.

<iframe src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/466007910?autoplay=1&loop=1&autopause=0&background=1&color=ffffff&controls=0&portrait=0" width="800" height= "500"  frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; fullscreen"  allowfullscreen></iframe>

It also will auto play on mobile.  You can adjust the settings for controls back to 1 instead 0.  And muted is background=1, so if you want sound change that, switch it to 0.
