Youtube autoplay and loop

[mlegg]

On this page http://www.pscompetitiveedge.com/references.html I have an embedded Youtube video (Greetings Intro) in the middle of the page. I have &autoplay=1&loop=1?rel=0 in the embed code. I got this from the Youtube help page, but it doens't seem to be working. :confused:

The video does start. It does not loop and thus causing related videos to show at the end.
&loop=1? should cause the loop
rel=0 should show no related videos

Why didn't this work? :confused:

the video is completely working fine for me on the link given by you

The video does load and play. The video does not loop, thus causing rel videos to show at the end.

Maybe this can shed some light - from Google developer documentation;

Note: This parameter (loop) has limited support in the AS3 player and in IFrame embeds, which could load either the AS3 or HTML5 player. Currently, the loop parameter only works in the AS3 player when used in conjunction with the playlist parameter. To loop a single video, set the loop parameter value to 1 and set the playlist parameter value to the same video ID already specified in the Player API URL:so it seems you also need to set the playlist parameter too. Ref: https://developers.google.com/youtube/player_parameters#loop

I am using this code

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/JkQS1MIplKI?&autoplay=1&loop=1?&playlist=JkQS1MIplKI?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

would it help if I changed it to the "old" style code and add the &autoplay=1&loop=1?rel=0?

<object width="420" height="315"><param name="movie" value="//www.youtube.com/v/JkQS1MIplKI?version=3&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="//www.youtube.com/v/JkQS1MIplKI?version=3&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="420" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>

var controllable_player,start,
statechange = function(e){
if(e.data === 0){controllable_player.seekTo(0); controllable_player.playVideo()}

};
function onYouTubeIframeAPIReady() {
controllable_player = new YT.Player('controllable_player', {events: {'onStateChange': statechange}});
}

if(window.opera){
addEventListener('load', onYouTubeIframeAPIReady, false);
}
setTimeout(function(){
if (typeof(controllable_player) == 'undefined'){
onYouTubeIframeAPIReady();
}
}, 3000)
</script>

<iframe id="controllable_player" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/JkQS1MIplKI?autoplay=1"></iframe>
rel=0 doesn't make sense in a loop.

The “loop” parameter needs to work together with the “playlist” parameter if you want the loop to work.
As you don't have a playlist, just make your single video look like one:
