The easiest way to play videos in HTML, is to use YouTube.

in the earlier parts of this tutorial, you must have seen that you need to convert the videos to different formats for playing them seamlessly in all browsers.

Conversion of videos to desirable playable formats is pretty difficult and takes a lot of time.

There is an easy solution for this which is letting YouTube play the videos in your web page.

YouTube will be displaying an id (like XGSy3_Czz8k), when you are saving (or playing) a video.

You can utilise this id, and make a reference to your video in the web page HTML code.

For playing your video on a web page, the following needs to be done:

• Video should be uploaded to YouTube
• Note down the video id
• Defining an <iframe> element in your web page
• The src attribute should be point to the video URL
• Using the width and height attributes for specifying the player dimension
• Addition of any other parameters required to the URL (see below)

Value 0 (default): When the player loads, the video will not play automatically.

Value 1: When the player loads, the video will play automatically .

A comma is used to separate the list of videos to play (in addition to the original URL).

Value 0 (default): The video will be playing only once

Value 1: The video will be playing in loop (forever).

Value 0: Player controls will not get displayed.

Value 1 (default): Player controls gets displayed.

Note: YouTube <object> and <embed> got deprecated from January 2015. You should be migrating your videos for using <iframe> instead.
