Turning autoplay off on embedded videos

[glennandrew]

Does anyone know how to turn off the autoplay/autostart feature of embedded videos?

I would think that there is a piece of code I could add to the embedded object html, but I don't know where to start.

I copied the video embedding code from a video into a blog post and the player automatically starts playing whenever the page is displayed or refreshed. My concern is that when I do my next post that will show up on the same page, I would like to have the player default to off.

I haven't found anything in the FAQs or User Guide.

Can anyone provide some help?

When you copy the clip embed code from the studio or player there is a checkbox option for for auto-play which will allow you to specify this. You can also set this in the embed code by making sure the parameter for initialIsOn=false
