# Responsive HTML5 Background Video

 * Does anyone have any tips on how to create a full-screen responsive HTML5 video
   background (like [this](http://www.bkwld.com/))? I’ve found some tutorials online
   that show how to write the needed HTML and CSS, but **I’m wondering if there 
   is a way to make it so that my client can easily change/update the video in the
   WordPress editor rather than going in and changing the HTML** every time he wants
   to upload a new video. Does anyone know if this is possible?
 * Thanks!

 * Of course it’s possible. But not they way you’d like it to be. What you’ll have
   to do is create a custom field somewhere that the client can select which video
   they want. Then you’ll write a custom page template that pulls the video into
   the custom HTML and CSS that you’ve written based on what you said! Easy as that.
 * This way you’ll have complete control over the way things are done, and the client
   will just have to pick which video to place. All you have to do is store the 
   ID of the video in question (if you are hosting the video yourself) or the URL
   of the video (if it’s off site such as YouTube or something). Using the ID/URL,
   you can do whatever you’d like.
