12.14.17: If you're uploading a *.mov file, this requires a Quick Time player to be on your computer to view the file, you can try converting it to another video format file. You can use this guide: https://community.homestead.com/homestead/topics/can_i_add_an_html5_video_to_my_site.
Have you tried to use the You Tube embed code when using the HTML option?

I recommend adding the video via YouTube.

Here are instructions on how to upload a Youtube video to Sitebuilder Plus https://community.homestead.com/homestead/topics/sitebuilder-plus-add-a-youtube-video and here are instructions for WebsiteBuilder https://community.homestead.com/homestead/topics/websitebuilder-add-media-files.

AUDIO FILE PLAY AUTOMATICALLY:
This does happen sometimes with older audio players. Please delete the audio player and add a more updated version. The instructions are in this article:
