Autoplay video

I inserted a YouTube video on my site and selected the autoplay option, but it does not autoplay. Is there some other code that I should add to make autoplay work?

Use the properties editor: Select auto play.

INSERTING A VIDEO:
1. Select Insert > YouTube Video > copy and paste the URL into the YouTube Video Settings > Select play options, position and size > save and publish.

Thanks Russell, but that did not work. Perhaps I don't understand what autoplay should do, but I expected the video to play when the page opened or was refreshed, instead, I had to press the play button on the video.

@pat9913 I would expect autoplay to play automatically when the page opens. What is the page url?
