Embedding redesigned reddit topics with video

Unless @techAPJ wants to take it, I’d say pr-welcome

Any takers for a PR on this one?

If you click on the Share > Embed button on this example URL, then copy this code:

<iframe id="reddit-embed" 
src="https://www.redditmedia.com/r/timelapse/comments/w2al1z/amazing_timelapse_of_summertime_storms_in_florida/?ref_source=embed&amp;ref=share&amp;embed=true" 
sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups" 
style="border: none;" scrolling="no" 
width="640" height="419">
</iframe>

The video does embed and play in the composer window:

But the video then disappears when the post is submitted.

Adding allow="autoplay 'none'" on the end of the iframe element does then made the video appear, and it then plays fine with all the embed controls working (pause, play, etc):

<iframe id="reddit-embed" 
src="https://www.redditmedia.com/r/timelapse/comments/w2al1z/amazing_timelapse_of_summertime_storms_in_florida/?ref_source=embed&amp;ref=share&amp;embed=true" 
sandbox="allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups" 
style="border: none;" scrolling="no" 
width="640" height="419" 
allow="autoplay 'none'">
</iframe>

Like so:
