<video id="coinSaverIcon" autoPlay playsInline>
<source src={coinsaverIcon} type="video/webm" />
</video>

You can add muted property
<video id="coinSaverIcon" autoPlay playsInline muted>
<source src={coinsaverIcon} type="video/webm" />
</video>

In some browsers autoplay (Chromium for example) is not allowed anymore.
Furthermore you shouldn't implement this kind of features for accessiblity issues.

Win 7 + IE 11 First video plays but second and later videos won't play

I've a list of video's in a page. The videos are fetched from Server via Rest API and are used in html as below. The first video plays well but later video's wont play. The resolution are same for all video. This works well in other browsers and platform.
<video width="645" height="425" id="myvideo" class ='video' controls controlsList="nodownload">
<source id="source" src="" type="video/mp4">
</video>
In my source tag, I've mentioned type="video/mp4"
In JS Side I do the below
$("#source")[0].src = <path-to-the-video>;
This works great on all browers and platform except for windows 7 and ie 11.
The error I get is
MEDIA12899: AUDIO/VIDEO: Unknown MIME type.
I've checked over the net
to add the type="video/mp4" which is already there and does not solve the problem.
The video resolutions are correct because the same video works in the same IE and Window when played in a separate HTML file.
What am I missing?

<source id="source" src="http://hostname.com1/video2" type="video/mp4">

How can I redirect to a URL when browser dose not support HTML5 videos?

I am trying to redirect to a different URL when html5 video's not supporting. Actually HTML5 video are not playing in safari browser. So I want to redirect my page to home.html instead of index.html. Any help or direction My browser giving message Your browser does not support HTML5 video. Here is my code, any help will be appreciated.
index.html
<video id="myVideo" autoplay preload controls >
<source src="final.mp4" type="video/mp4">
<source src="final.ogv" type="video/ogg; codecs=theora, vorbis">
<source src="final.webm" type="video/webm; codecs=vp8, vorbis">
Your browser does not support HTML5 video.
</video>

You can check if the video element is supported in JavaScript, and then redirect if it isn't supported:
if (!document.createElement('video').canPlayType) {
window.location.replace('home.html');
}

video is not playing on chrome but playing in other browsers

I'm developing a site in which I want to play video in background. Following is my code, video is playing in Internet explorer but not in Chrome. I'm using 2.2.4 version of jquery and I cannot change it because my all site is developed and If I change jquery than my whole site stops working.
<video id="vid" width="110%" height="100%" autoplay controls loop muted="muted">
<source src="../img/led.mp4" type="video/mp4" />
</video>
Thanx in advance.

html5 video autoplay doesn't work on iPhone

<video autobuffer controls autoplay>
<source id="mp4" src="../vid/coolvideo.mp4" type="video/mp4">
</video>
Is there anyway to autoplay a .mp4 video file on page load for iPhone and Android Smart Mobile Devices. The above works great in the browser, but struggles hard on smart mobile. Is there any other HTML5 or even If I must JS solutions for iPhone (without loading a bloated third-party resource, ideally). Plain javaScript or plain jQuery, HTML5 solutions ideal.

It works only if you add muted and playsinline attributes
<video autoplay playsinline muted loop>
<source src="cover.mp4" type="video/mp4">
Your browser does not support HTML5 video.
</video>
