Chrome Vimeo Iframe autoplay not working anymore

since some days my vimeo iframe will not autoplay anymore. I know the chrome update, which will block autoplay videos with sound. Is the block already active?

The Vimeo Example code doesn't work:

<iframe src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/12345?autoplay=1&loop=1&autopause=0" width="500" height="281" frameborder="0" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen></iframe>

But netflix.com and vimeo itself has an autoplay video on the homepage, which works.

EDIT: Chrome version 66.0.3359.139 macOS High Sierra 10.13.4

Does anyone have an idea or answer?

Thanks!

yes, according to their documentation it is.

EDIT:

Advance browsers like FireFox, Chrome and Safari are now blocking video autoplay by default.

CHROME Auto-Play Policy:

https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2017/09/autoplay-policy-changes

The Media Engagement Index, or MEI for short, a way of Chrome is to allow AutoPlay audio on your page to be based on your previous interactions with this webpage as a user. You can see what this looks like by going to

chrome://media-engagement/

MEI is calculated per user profile, and is persisted to incognito mode.

FIREFOX Auto-Play Improvements:

NOTE: Don’t assume a media element will play, and don’t show the pause button from the start. Look at the Promise returned by the play function on HTMLMediaElement to see if it was rejected:

var promise = document.querySelector('video').play();

if (promise !== undefined) {
    promise.catch(error => {
        // Auto-play was prevented
        // Show a UI element to let the user manually start playback
    }).then(() => {
        // Auto-play started
    });
}
