Frequently asked questions
Why add multiple source elements?
Different browsers support different codecs, so offering MP4, WebM and OGG sources lets each browser pick a format it can play, maximising compatibility from one <video> tag.
Why does autoplay usually need muted?
Most browsers block autoplay with sound to protect users, so autoplay only works reliably when the video is also muted. The generator adds muted automatically when you enable autoplay.
What is the poster attribute?
poster sets an image shown before the video plays or while it loads, giving viewers a meaningful preview frame instead of a blank black rectangle.
