hi, I am Toby's developer and we are trying to solve the video issue on safari.
I add the code for .htaccess file, I also converted video to web, mp4 and ogv type and uploaded from backend but the slider still doesn't work on safari.
I was wondering how we can guarantee the video height can be set to 100% and not cropped with the footer sitting perfectly at the bottom of the scroll with no additional bg as it seems to have on ours on screens large enough to encompass homepage content and more?
Is there also a way to add play and mute buttons to the video?
Just a thought as regards my last question. If it helps I have the videos also hosted on Vimeo and YouTube, so if the answer for self hosting is no then is there a way through Vimeo or YouTube to enable this and have these control options visible like an embed?
Unfortunately this would require some custom development. If you really need this modification done you could head on over to microlancer which is a service from Envato that offers paid WordPress customizations. I'm sure a developer on there would be able to wrap this up for you :)
Thanks, I'll look into it but where you referring to my issue with 'guarantee the video height can be set to 100% and not cropped with the
footer sitting perfectly at the bottom of the scroll with no additional
bg'?
Just found the answer
