In case someone wants to know this:
Some people attach autoplay=1, but you also need to attach mute=1 to make it autoplay. That works, but with no sound (of course). It seems like the browsers made sure we can't play the video automatically without muting them. Which makes sense for limiting the bad guys, but it also affects us the good guys :/
