    Hello Kriesi,
    We have been working with your Enfold theme for awhile now and is getting close to finishing our page. Our question would be about a video hosting site. On our homepage we start off with a video that is set on a color selection layout element. We tried embedding a video we uploaded to vimeo. We signed up there as plus members. The thing we don’t like is that vimeo’s player shows the play/pause button for the first 6 seconds as it loads. It doesn’t look so professional. We noticed that on your demos there aren’t any at all. We tried throwing our video on the media library, but our video we got is 335mb. What’s the best way for us to get a hd video to play on our intro page?

    Thanks

    Also, we’ve noticed that when the video is playing there is no sound. Is it possible to have the sound work too?

    Hi!

    Would suggest self-hosting it, is the video a mp4 file? 335mb seems to high unless the video is very long.

    To un-mute the video, open /config-templatebuilder/avia-shortcodes/section.php: and look for:

    'video_mute' => true,
    

    Change it to:

    'video_mute' => false,
    

    Regards,
    Josue

    Hey josue, thanks for answering back. The video is a .mov. should i convert it to a mp4? how would I self host it? Thanks.

    Yes, that should decrease the size tremendously, in order to self-host it simply upload it in Media > Add new. Also upload .ogv and .webm versions to make sure the video works in other browsers (you don’t need to set each one in the Section, Enfold will look for it automatically, just make sure they have the same filename, ex: video.mp4, video.ogv, video.webm).

    Regards,
    Josue
