Frequently asked questions
Does requesting autoplay guarantee automatic playback?
No. The generator adds autoplay=1, but browser restrictions and viewer settings can still prevent playback.
Does the nocookie embed make viewing anonymous?
No. The generated embed contacts YouTube when loaded. Privacy-enhanced mode reduces some pre-playback storage but does not make viewing anonymous.
