    Does this not work at all or just for the free version?

    Can someone explain why I can’t get video backgrounds on mobile, as my client is insistent that he wants it!

    Is there a way to get it working at all?

    cheers

    Hello @tinkertravels, video backgrounds do not work on mobile devices. It is the limitation of the mobile browsers – they do block background videos automatically, so only thumbnail can be displayed there.

    You can insert video to content editor..

    ah ok thanks for the info.

    As a solution, I have converted the youtube video to a gif and trimmed it down. Then selected the gif as a fallback for the video on desktop!

    Not great for performance and site speed though, but I have my orders that the video is a must lol
