How to use a video as a background that will loop?

[ohiocannabis]

So I want to add some videos as backgrounds to my website that have small graphics to them and will look cool when they are looped.

But I can’t seem to figure out how to get it to loop?

I uploaded the video to youtube

But when I try to add the video as a background lower layer, it doesn’t populate?

Then I can add it by dragging a video element to the section I want it in and it will populate the video but doesn’t autoplay it nor loop it.

I tried adding the video to my wordpress media library, but it’s 79mb and wordpress says max is 8mb, so I don’t know what to do.

Suggestions?

Thanks.

Hi @ohiocannabis,

Thanks for writing in.

The best way to follow what you want to achieve this is to follow something like the integrity demo 1.

First, the background uses revolution slider to control the texts and loops.

Next, where to upload your video, you can upload it the same with the demo. It is uploaded in Vimeo, a 3rd party video hosting. So it will render the video fast.

You can still upload your video in your hosting however I recommend that you will keep it short or reduce its memory. If still you won’t be able to reduce it that much. You can use FTP to upload your videos to your hosting.

Lastly, other way to use background as video, section’s background video.

Hope it helps.

Let us know how it goes.

Thanks.
