    Hi there,

    so far I've used the WordPress Video Block to embed videos. However, I found out that Safari doesn't support WebM videos. Unfortunately, I can't add a second source (WebM/MP4) as a fallback.

    I've then used the Hervin: Hosted Video Block. Luckily this one supports two sources (WebM/MP4). However, and that's my problem, I don't have any controls: AUTO PLAY, LOOP, PLAYBACK CONTROLS OFF is what I need. Basically the video should look like a looping GIF.

    Can I enter the parameters into the HTML/Shortcode somehow?

    Or do you know a way to add a second source to the original WordPress Video block, as a fallback?

    Thanks a lot!

    Hi there, can you upload the video as MP4 this format is supported by most browsers?

    or you could use a plugin such as
