Looking for an Autoplaying Video Player without Full-Screen Default

I want to have a video player that autoplays and does not automatically open the video in full screen when its playing. I dont want to use youtube or vimeo. I’ve tried these three plugins and the ones that i got to work only played when the video was full screen. Does anyone know of a plugin or custom code i can use to achieve this type of video player?

It should be as easy as including an HTML element with video code. The point for auto-play is it should be muted. Some browsers won’t let auto-play with audio.

Of course you have to play with width/height in the code vs in the HTML element to make it look better.

You can add a loop as well to make it loop.

<video controls  muted loop autoplay width="100%" height="100%">

  Your browser does not support the video tag.

Doesn’t really work. I have pasted the code and the video still goes in full screen… Any other ideas?

The solution really plays in a regular screen, however width/height the video is. It means something wrong with your settings. Maybe put your video code so I can check it.

Thanks hergin for your reply.


It is in a group. Sometimes the video plays automatically in full screen, sometimes it doesn’t play automatically…
