Autorefresh function in header and YouTube

Hi, guys,
I encountered a situation with my coding (not an expert, still leraning a lot of stuff).
As less as possible I’m trying to avoid using plug-ins for small functions. So I needed an autorefresh function. I searched the forum and I found a small command to put in the header (<meta http-equiv=”refresh” content=”600″>). Everything works well except on thing that became annoying: in my home page I embedded some YouTube videos. But the users can’t see the entire videos because after ten minutes autorefresh kicks and strat all over the videos.
My question: is there anything that I can do so everything refreshes except the YouTube videos? I know it’s an impossible situation but doesn’t hurt to ask.Thank you very much!
