When doing research on this topic, I ran across several others complaining about the ridiculous limitation that mobile devices cannot play videos. My client does not understand this limitation – especially after I sold him on how Enfold was a good theme.
I do remember one of the support folks had mentioned that he had a workaround for this but the details were never disclosed. If you could help me find those details, it would be greatly appreciated.
If you have other solutions and workarounds they would be equally appreciated!
Thanks,
Robert
Hey Chiefi,
Thank you for the inquiry.
You can replace the Color Section with a Layer Slider and apply the video as slider background. This video should play on mobile devices. If you want to just hide the element on mobile view, edit it, go the Advanced tab and look for the Element Visility options in the Responsive Settings toggle.
Best regards,

Hi,
We created an example of the layer slider with background video in a test page. Please check the link in the private field.
In order to apply a background video to the layer slider, you have to add a new Video/Audio layer and enable the Background Video option under the Layer Settings > Media Options panel. You can also adjust the slider size in the Project Settings > Layout panel, we selected the Hero option in this example.
Best regards,
Ismael
