Prevent embedded iFrame video from autoplaying.

Hi, 

I need to embed a video from my cloudinary account into an iFrame. This works fine except the video autoplays - is there anyway to prevent this whilst keeping the video in an iFrame and not changing to a video element? 

Thanks, 

Enrique

    Hi Enrique,

    Iframe has a built-in autoplay.

    If you are using HTML5, using the Video tag is suitable for this purpose and will not autoplay.

     

    Thanks,

    Aditi

    Hi can you provide more information when you say "using the video tag". What are we supposed to add to the <iframe>script to stop the videos from autoplaying?
