Vimeo & autoplay and loop

v1ncent

hey! I am trying to embed a video with autoplay and loop. The video doesn't have any sound. I can only insert the normal link but then autoplay / loop doesn't work. Found this very old topic: http://laythemeforum.com:4567/topic/449/add-to-vimeo-video-auto-play-and-loop
but it is not working really well. Is there a better way to have an easy way to embed Vimeo with autoplay & loop?

Thanks!

Richard

Dear @v1ncent

If you are having trouble with adding autoplay and loop functions yourself, Vimeo offers this option already for you.

With Vimeo videos - within 'Share' located at top right you can select 'Show Options':

From there you can set autoplay and loop as well as responsive Iframe sizing:

This can them be inserted via '+more - HTML' within your Gridder Options:

This is wonderful! Sometimes the easiest things get overlooked ;) Thanks for your help!

Actually this gives very varying results. Sometimes it autoplays, sometimes it doesn't, all with same video and Vimeo link. Any idea what could be the problem?

Dear @v1ncent

Applying the same video has different results? are you able to post a link to your website with the examples

Hey Rick, just sent my site via PM. At first the movies had autoplay on some of them. Now none of them work anymore. It's good to know I tried this with different MP4's I uploaded to Vimeo, but all rendered without sound.

This is the video embed code I used for all of them. I used XXXXX instead of actual Vimeo ID in this example.
