I have a youtube video embedded onto my homepage that I'd like to have play automatically when the home page loads. I saw this was an option for site-hosted videos but not for embedded youtube videos, or at least not that I could find. Is there a way to do this in salient?
Apologies for getting back so late. I appreciate the help. However, when I use the self-hosted video player, under the autoplay option it says "this option will automatically mute the video" or something similar. Is there any way to have a video play automatically, with sound, on my homepage? That's really what I'm looking to do.

Hello Teague,
Thank you for writing to us.
I am afraid Youtube does not support autoplay. Try passing the Self hosted video via the online convertors to optimize it: http://themenectar.com/docs/salient/page-builder-columns/#video-background .

Hello Teague,
Thanks for keeping in touch.
Please check whether this is turned off as it should be on in this case.
Thanks.
Hey Again,
I am afraid the Videos are Muted as a Browser Policy therefore it can't be auto-played with Sound.
Thanks
