Can't use video file

I'm trying to import a video onto my site. I don't want any controls, I just want it to play. I'm using the tag, but when I downloaded the video from YouTube and tried to use it, it said that "Brackets only currently supports UTF-8 encoded files". (Brackets is my code editor) I opened the file in Notepad++ and converted it to UTF-8 to no avail. I downloaded an extension to convert it to UTF-8, also not working. Here's the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMd580H8rGY
Please help!

Solution

  • You have to upload the video on your server then add to your page something like:

    <video width="320" height="240" autoplay>
  <source src="movie.mp4" type="video/mp4">
  <source src="movie.ogg" type="video/ogg">
  Your browser does not support the video tag.
</video>
