Embed Youtube Videos That Play In Fullscreen Automatically

So what I'm trying to do is have fullscreen video across my website. But I would like to auto play a youtube video and automatically in fullscreen (The size of the browser window).

Solution 1:

This was pretty well answered over here: How to make a YouTube embedded video a full page width one?

If you add '?rel=0&autoplay=1' to the end of the url in the embed code (like this)

<iframe id="video" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/5iiPC-VGFLU?rel=0&autoplay=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

of the video it should play on load. Here's a demo over at jsfiddle.


Solution 2:

Chrome Doesn't Support Automatic Fullscreen But You Can Play A Video As Simple As This:

<iframe width="640" height="360" src="youryoutubeurlhere" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Solution 3:

This will help to autoplay the video onload and will make it full screen but the video running will have to be muted due to the Chrome Autoplay Policy.

// https://jsfiddle.net/jlam55555/o5njka95/6/

function requestFullScreen(element) {
    // Supports most browsers and their versions.
    var requestMethod = element.requestFullScreen || element.webkitRequestFullScreen || element.mozRequestFullScreen || element.msRequestFullscreen;

    if (requestMethod) { // Native full screen.
        requestMethod.call(element);
    } else if (typeof window.ActiveXObject !== "undefined") { // Older IE.
        var wscript = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
        if (wscript !== null) {
            wscript.SendKeys("{F11}");
        }
    }
}
// FullScreen function
function makeFullScreen() {
    document.getElementsByTagName("iframe")[0].className = "fullScreen";
    var elem = document.body;
    requestFullScreen(elem);
}
iframe.fullScreen {
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
}
<body onload="makeFullScreen()">
<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/668nUCeBHyY?autoplay=1&mute=1&controls=0&rel=0" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; picture-in-picture" title="YouTube Embed"></iframe>
</body>

I found 2 solutions ✌ for embedding YouTube video in HTML

  1. Only HTML No JS
    in this solution we set players option in iframe parameter

    
        body {
            overflow-x: hidden;
        }



        .video-container {
            width: 100vw;
            height: 100vh;
            overflow: hidden;
            position: relative;
        }



        iframe {
            position: absolute;
            top: -10%;
            width: 100vw;
            height: 117vh;
            pointer-events: none;
        }
