Tips for Background video in this theme
Permalink Browser Info Environment
Has anyone seen those sights with background video playing, It can be a great effect and here is how to do it.
I have just used the Add-On YouTube Background (OMG!) add on with this theme and it is fantastic. - There is a free version of this add-on, but then you can't use your own videos, but test with the free one first.
Just add the YouTube Background block and then you can hide the block from all devices (mobile, table, desktop) using built in Bootstrap classes in the custom CSS (very simple), but it will still use the video as the background for all other slides in this theme
Then you can create empty content blocks if you just want to show the video, You can create blocks with text, which will show up on top of the video,
And for any blocks where you don't want video showing in the Background, just change the background for those blocks to a solid color or us an image for the background and it overrides the video background.
The video doesn't show in background for iPhone 6 android, haven't tried on tablet yet, but it is amazing on desktop.
