Hi tabschoolcourses,

If the video is on the first slide most browsers will not play the video. This is a security policy by browsers mostly in response to advertisements automatically playing. You can read more about this here: https://developer.chrome.com/blog/autoplay/

What you can do is use the first slide as an introduction and the video/s would be placed in the succeding slides. This way the aforementioned security policy will not affect the auto play because the user has already interacted with the content.
