Tutorial: How to Embed Videos on Shopify Pages, Products, and Themes

In this video, we are going to explore the various ways that you can add and embed video files on your Shopify store. There are many different ways to showcase videos on your store. One popular way is to simply use the Shopify file manager to upload your video, and then use a small piece of code to embed the video anywhere in your store - however - for larger files, above 20MB, the file manager within Shopify will not allow you to upload it! There exists a few workarounds, and we will explore each one of these workarounds within the video.

Important notes & troubleshooting steps:

- If you want to autoplay a video, make sure you select the correct settings in the youtube video embed generator from the link above. If your video is not autoplaying, make sure you have this option checked, and try a browser other than Google Chrome.
- Videos will always show related videos. *Removing related videos using the "rel" option with the URL is no longer supported*. See: https://developers.google.com/youtube/player_parameters#rel
