2. Add <canvas> tag

It is easy to play video that you just code like these.

	</canvas>
</div></div>

If you need video to autoplay, loop, or mute(start playing), you can code like these:

<div><div class="canvideo">

		Your browser dose not support canvas.
	</canvas>
</div></div>

//...
<script src="lib/js/canvideo.min.js"></script>
<script>
	var videoList = [
		['title1', 'url1'],
		['title2', 'url2'],
		//...
		['titleN', 'urlN']
	]
	var video = new CanVideo(videoList);
	// Uses API to do more...
