To automatically start playing music, you can add an autoplay parameter to the embed tag. This would make the embed tag look something like this: <embed src="url-to-file" autoplay="true">. If you use an object tag, add a param tag that looks like this: <param name="autoplay" value="true">. If "true" doesn't work, try 1 instead.

To automatically start YouTube videos, start with copying the embed code on YouTube. For the object tag, find the param tag with the name "movie," and add "&autoplay=1" (no quotes) to the end of the url value but before the end quote. Do the same to the url in the embed tag. So both urls should look something like this: "http://youtube.com/stuff&autoplay=1"
