I have a video in first section. But it's not auto-playing. If I add a carousel there and have the video as the second entry, it auto-plays but if it's the first entry it does not. As far as I can tell, I have auto play turned on. Am I missing something?

Hello,

This issue is not related to Canvas's Codes. The Video is blocked from AutoPlaying by the Browser as it is not muted. You will notice that as soon as you add the muted Attribute to the `` Tag, it will start playing. This is something Modern Browsers now enforce upon for a better User Experience.

Hope this Helps!
