HTML 5 Video – force autoplay & improve speed

[cedricschanze]

Hi guys,

hope you had a nice holiday. =)

I am having a problem with HTML5 Videos on mobile.
Is there a way to force HTML 5 videos to auto-play, even when the phone is in "low power" mode? Any snipped I could use or any box I should check? =)

And is there a way to boost the loading speed of these Videos?
Do I miss any new technology to use Videos on my page? =)
Any plugin or process I should know of to improve my page speed?

This is my page, including some video loops:

Thank you in advance!
