Hello using JCE 2.9.3 beta9, with this code: 

<p>
<video src="https://www.joomlacontenteditor.net/images/2021/video.mp4" autoplay="autoplay" controls="controls" width="100%" height="auto"></video>
</p>
on this page: https://www.domebulfaro.com/ the autoplay sometimes works, sometimes not. For example, on Chrome/Mac the first time I load the page it works, if I reload not. On Firefox/Mac it doesn't start at all. what can I do to get it fine? Thanks

Browsers can be configured not to autoplay media, despite the video settings. With some browsers this is enabled by default. Firefox on my Mac does not autoplay media.

Just because you're not paranoid doesn't mean everybody isn't out to get you.
