One video on my webpage often plays unexpectedly, despite my coding to prevent this

HTML & CSS

The third video on my page often plays unexpectedly when the page loads. The html code follows below…

embed SRC=“x-bookmark.mp4” WIDTH=“450” HEIGHT=“550” AUTOPLAY=“false” controls preload=“none” CONTROLLER=“true” LOOP="false”

…I know only the basics of web design using html, and very little using CSS. If there’s a simple fix (preferably using html) to the above code, I’d be thankful.

so why are we using an embed rather than a video tag for a local video file?

Problem solved using Google search ai. :laughing:

Could you expand on how you fixed the problem, in case it helps someone else in the future?

<video width="450" height="550" controls preload="none" controls poster="gratitude1.jpg"> 
< source src="x-bookmark.mp4" type="video/mp4">
 Your browser does not support the video tag. 
</video>

I typed my original post into Google, and its AI gave me the correct code. (I omitted beginning brackets)
