Hi

I have a self-hosted video background playing in the banner here: https://inspiringactiveplaces.je/

I would like to know any workarounds possible to place larger videos in this space. I'm aware of YouTube backgrounds but they seem to take a long time to load and look sloppy.

Is there an easy line of custom JS / CSS that will allow me to place any video source in there instead? Could be vimeo or something from google drive or our server...

Thanks in advance.

Hi Tahir

The self-hosted player still only has the option to upload through wordpress with a max size of 2mb which is too small as video is around 30mb.

Also, surely this just shrinks with the video with the window? I need a full-height video that crops when the window is scaled down (see below).

This is the actual site, and how the youtube video responds is how I want it to be, just without the overlays and the slow loading speed: http://envirorally.oi-you.io/

Thanks

I pasted the code in the theme functions (see attached). Will that work, or do I need to follow one of the other routes?

Thanks for your quick responses by the way, much needed and appreciated.

sorry, this is the attachment.

Thanks, we're on it.

Secondly, how can I reduce the white bar that's showing near the footer? (see attached) I've disabled the footer with CSS as far as I'm aware and turned off all known options in the theme settings.

Thanks

Hi Tahir

Hasn't worked unfortunately. Strangely not as much of an issue on the initial test page i set up here, but still there only smaller:  https://electricliving.gg/enviro-test-page/

Excellent, thanks dude.

Really appreciate your help.
