Autoplay video when site is finished loading

[iliketurtles]

Not sure if I`m putting this in the right place, but whattaheck..

I have a small website I wanna have a video in. It`s a sales page, and the vid is going to convince people to buy. I want the video to start playing when the site is finished loading, maybe after half a second, a second, or something. Anyway, what I DONT want is a Youtube video. The video must not have a frame all the way around it, but it may, however, have buttons for sound volume, pause & play at the bottom.

One more thing, I would like the video to be clickable after it`s finished playing, so I can send people off to the payment site.

What would be the best solution to make this work?

Just append ‘&start=2′ to skip first 2s of the video. In general you can modify the value after start= to the number of seconds you want to skip the video for.

Anyway, what I DONT want is a Youtube video.

YouTube video will do the job perfectly. If you worried about other ads and
vids, Publishing your content in the form of Youtube video? Don't want people to see other people's content that may be related but may as well be in competition to you? Just add ‘&rel=0′ to the end of the url part of the embed code and you just turned off the related video suggestions!

The video must not have a frame all the way around it, but it may, however, have buttons for sound volume, pause & play at the bottom.

Just make sure you size the video correctly,

use an annotation. or build a specific youtube page with one video on it
and dirct people to the descrition

What would be the best solution to make this work?

Example code:

<object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ATseT9sBtxM&start=5&autoplay=1&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ATseT9sBtxM&start=2&autoplay=1&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object>
