Okay, I have been trying to do this for the last 2 hours trying to figure out how to autoplay a damn video on my wordpress site.

This is what I'm trying to do.

Have my video play in a widget automatically when someone visits. I've seen many posts about adding this autoplay script to the end of the video, but youtube changed the way the embed code looks so it doesn't work.

I used tubepress (youtube plugin) and I got it to work, however, part of the video is cut off unless I make the widget like 700 pixels wide. And there's no option to change the actual video size from youtube itself using tubepress since you just put in the video ID.

Does anyone know how to autoplay a video with the html code from youtube so i can adjust the dimensions and it's not cut off?

I the script make the following changes, just check your script and make sure both these values are 0:

startPage=0&autoPlay=0

I currently use &autoplay=1 in my embed code at the end of the youtube video URL and it works okay.
