  [Sorry, no link, site isnt public yet].

  My Youtube background video doesnt autoplay on mobile, and thats not a huge problem, except theres a big play button in the middle of the video that cant be clicked but is very visible.

  Is it possible to [by default, ideally, since autoplay and muting are both turned on] to have the video autoplay?

  Failing that, is there a workaround? [Maybe a fallback image, though I dont see where Id add that or perhaps local video would fare better?]

  Any word, Dmytro? Local video sot of works but makes the page load quite slowly. Id like it to work with Youtube, but it needs to at least be able to use a fallback image on mobile. If youtube doesnt support this natively, then you could still use the control, and just hide the youtube preview on mobile in favor of an image.
