Use mp4 video instead of jpg within the main title text slider

[KMazor]

Hi there!

I just purchased your theme and am exploring how I want to implement it for my business.

One thing I would really love to do is use an mp4 as the content within the main title text slider instead of an image. I tried out a webp video which worked without issue, but an mp4 would be much more size efficient.

Is there any way for me to accomplish this?

Thanks!

Whoops accidentally made an img link instead of link link before. Here’s the
test with webp video

Hi there,
Welcome to SeaTheme forum.

Do you mean that the MP4 does not work? Could you please leave the issue page url? Thanks

Sorry the website actually isnt live yet.

Or did you mean you have an issue page?

Here’s the code for what I’m referring to. It will work with a webp video but not with an mp4 (as the code shows below) for some reason.

Any thoughts?

<!-- Main Content Wrap -->
        		<div id="wrap">
                    <!-- Top Slider -->
                    <div class="top-slider top-slider-text">
                        <div class="text-slider-inn middle-ux">
                            <h1 class="slider-headding slider-headding-1 headding-with-bg" data-bg="img/abstractreel.mp4">Mazor Creative</h1>
                        
                            <div class="slider-con">
                                <div class="slider-con-inn">
                                    <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nunc quam..</p>
                                </div>
                            </div>
                        </div>
                    </div><!-- End top-slider -->

HI,

The effect is implemented by the css property background-image, and the CSS background-image does not support mp4 format.

Is there any way for me to adjust things to make an mp4 work instead?

[SeaTheme]

Hi, It is not possible to use mp4, you can try to use GIF

Ok thanks! With that in mind, is there any way that I could make it so that background-image is always scaled to be just large enough to fit the headding-with-bg text scale? That would let me use a smaller file resolution.

[SeaTheme]

Welcome.
The fixed value of background-attachment does fill fullscreen, you can disable it by the CSS:

.backgroundcliptext .headding-with-bg.slider-headding { 
    background-attachment: scroll;
}
