Autostart+loop videos YouTube videos

Solution

This is the correct way to loop the videos of a playlist (as Google explains here)

<iframe width="100%" height="100%" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed?
    listType=playlist&
    list=PLAYLIST_ID&
    version=3&
    loop=1&
    autoplay=1&
    rel=0&
    showinfo=0&
    controls=0&
    autohide=1
" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Problem

YouTube recently discarded the old "embed" code and replaced it with iframe code. In the new iframe code I found the way to loop+autostart videos on my website, thanks to this article. It says: It's important to note that the “loop” parameter needs to work together with the “playlist” parameter. This means that we are looping a playlist that has only one video. So the embed code will look like this: ``` <iframe width=”560″ height=”315″ src=”http://www.youtube.com/embed/V3oJR5IAMxM?rel=0&autoplay=1&loop=1&playlist=V3oJR5IAMxM” frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen></iframe> ``` But in my new code, why does each plalist have the two same videos? When I apply the code the playlist, it has the same two videos in it. See for example: How can I have only one video per playlist? I never created any playlists. YouTube shows by default that I have the same 2 videos in a playlist.
