    Hello all. I found this video that explains how to set up the revolution slider very nicely. He’s a version or two behind, but still very relevant.

    The second part is be aware of setting up a video background incorrectly; I had a 30Mb looping background video and left the website up for the evening after going to bed. When I came back, GoDaddy had locked me out of the account because of bandwidth being exceeded. Seems a looping video left open like that for multiple hours yields over 49Gb of traffic! I had to switch to a paid hosting plan in order to fix the issues. Better to not have the video background looping.

    Hello There,

    Thanks for sharing this information. It would take more than 1500 times of a 30MB video to reach the 49GB of traffic. I would suggest that you should add a shorter and smaller video file to avoid such kind of bandwidth issues. In our demo site, we used a 3rd party site to host the video to avoid excessive bandwidth from our servers. You can check out this link: https://resources.goanimate.com/8-best-youtube-alternatives-for-business-video-hosting/

    Hope this helps.
