Hello!

Does anyone know how to alter title when embedding a video into Github?

And perhaps other options such as auto-play, thumbnail frame etc.

Kind regards

I haven’t done this on GitHub, but the normal syntax for a rendered preview with alt text in markdown is `![Alt text](URL to video)`

It seems to be supported by GitHub based on this blog:
