EDIT

Seem the problem is from the repo jquery.mb.YTPlayer. If we look at the issue https://github.com/pupunzi/jquery.mb.YTPlayer/issues/49

Be sure you have the last version of the repo.

After reading the doc from the repo, try to replace : autoPlay: true, by autoplay: true,

Final code :

<a class="player" id="player" data-property="{
   videoURL: 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9fgbuH0_RI&feature=youtu.be',
   containment:'#videobg',
   autoplay: true,
   optimizeDisplay: true,
   showControls: true,
   startAt: 0,
   opacity: 1,
   ratio: '4/3', 
   addRaster: false }"></a>

<div id="videobg" class="section-divider white-text videobg" data-scroll-index="4">
    <div class="pattern-overlay"></div>
    <div class="triangle-right"></div>

    <div class="container extra-padding">
        <div class="col-md-5 extra-padding">
            <h1>INNOVATING THROUGH TRAVEL</h1>
            <p>Travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living.</p>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>
