Video parallax on mobile device like iPad not working

[TIS123]

Hi,

Although a parallax with an image works as expected on my mobile devices a parallax with video does not. I’m using latest version of Theme-X and it makes no difference if I deactivate third party plugins.

Is this still a common X issue or am I doing something wrong? Please see the secure note for the URL of the site I am working on.

Hi @TIS123,

Unfortunately parallax effect is not available for mobile devices, please try with this solution instead:

@media (max-width:979px){
    .x-section.bg-image.parallax, .x-section.bg-pattern.parallax {
        background-attachment: fixed !important;
        background-position: center center !important;
    }
}

Hope it helps

Hi Thai,

Thanks for fast responding! The parallax works fine if I use an image, so far so good. Using a video it does not work, with or without your CSS code

I saw this was already an issue reported about 2 years ago, will this ever be solved?

Regards, Hans.

Hi Hans,

Parallax is intentionally disabled on mobile view (same for video backgrounds) for performance reasons.

And there is no alternative solution for the video background yet.

Stay tuned.
