Issue using autoplay and colorbox

Hi Yes I found a solution for this.

What I did, probably not the best solution but it works:

I added a field to my content type "autoplay" with a default value of "?&autoplay=1".
I load op that field using views (excluded from display of course) it's just there to use with the colorbox trigger module.
This is what I used in the colorbox trigger popup filed [field_vimeo_id][field_autoplay]

So that the final html my popup opens is this http://player.vimeo.com/video/xxxxx?=&autoplay=1

making it start playing when opening the video in the colorbox.

You can see it in action on http://www.sonix.be/showreel

Here is my views export, it might help:

$view->name = 'showreel';
