Video background - BillionAnswers

Hello Anneke,
Currently Themler doesn't have such functionality. You may try to look for some third-party plugins. However, we've never tested them ourselves.

Also, as a workaround you can use the slider control as the page background.

Please let us know if you have any further questions.

Regards,
Aileen

Hello,

I know Themler haven't that function yet. But that's why I would put it on the wishlist :)

Video will become more and more important this year. So, would be great.

In general yes. You should change Slider positioning to absolute on page and make it 100% screen width and height:

Thank you.
Achieved something with position:fixed. Follows a lot of thinking about other blocks, positions and z-index. But it can be done.
I will try your settings. They are different.

This is solved I believe. Now you can put video in slider, even video as full background. But I did not tested and I am not 100% sure, needs some documentation.

Hello!

I don't know if anyone has solved this yet but you might want to try this until it becomes a feature of this product.

Steps:

Add a new blank section
Set height to 100vh
Insert HTML control into the section you just created
Go to this website and cut/paste the HTML and the CSS into the HTML control.

Get code here

You will probably want to edit to your specs.
Good luck!
