๐Ÿ”† YouTube embed link loop example

The parameter "loop=1" triggers the loop feature, so the video keeps repeating endlessly.
In theory this should work, but I noticed that looping doesn't always work the way it should.

Example:
<iframe 
    width="560" height="315"
    src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ABCDEFGHIJ?&loop=1">
</iframe>

๐Ÿ”† YouTube embed link autoplay example

The parameter "autoplay=1" triggers the automatic play feature, the video starts on page load.
In theory, however I noticed that autoplay doesn't always work the way it should.

Example:
<iframe 
    width="560" height="315"
    src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ABCDEFGHIJ?&autoplay=1">
</iframe>
