Go to group page Set videos to Autoplay with YouTube Embedder
YouTube Embedder has got to be one of the (if not the) cleanest, easiest to use plugins I've ever seen.
One thing would make it perfect... Is there a way to change the url so that the videos will play automatically?

Autoplay youtube for YouTube Embedder
On line 54 of youtubeembed.php (modules/content/..)
replace:
return '<object width="'.$width.'" height="'.$height.'"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/'.$vCode.'"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/'.$vCode.'" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="'.$width.'" height="'.$height.'"></embed></object>';
with:
return '<object width="'.$width.'" height="'.$height.'"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/'.$vCode.'&autoplay=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/'.$vCode.'&autoplay=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="'.$width.'" height="'.$height.'"></embed></object>';
basically you're adding: &autoplay=1
to the end of where the url populates: "http://www.youtube.com/v/'.$vCode.' HERE "
I did it successfully, but decided it's best to let the user decide to view the content, the file I'm calling is quite large...
Good luck! :)
