Play inline video (local) on Android?

Apparently its super easy on iOS:

<video autoplay loop webkit-playsinline>
   <source src="video.mp4" type="video/mp4">
</video>

but for some reasons I cant get it to work on android. I tried to query the dom object and .play() programmatically but with no success

Any help?

Thank you! I ll give it a try

Most audio & video element issues with Android are nonexistent when using Crosswalk with your project. #protip
