    The video backgrounds I have added to the header of most of the pages within this website do not show on mobile (iPhone).I have checked both on Safari and Chrome.  All videos on the website are housed on Youtube.

    Thanks Tahir - 

    Curious - do they work if I convert them using these two links?  If not, is there any way to have them work on mobile devices?

    Hey Again,

    Self hosted videos will work on Mobile and those links work too.

    Thanks so much for your quick reply!

    Do you have any suggestion on where to self-host?  I haven't done that before as I have always just used Youtube.  Is JWPlayer a good one?

    Sorry, one last question.  If I were to self-host, where would I insert the code for that?

    Hey Again,

    - For Page Headers you have to add the videos in the media library : http://prntscr.com/rxbasq. 

    - For Row Backgrounds as well first upload the videos to the media library and then add the urls in here : http://prntscr.com/rxbbeg .
