A backgound with a full video?

Question
1

How can I embed a video as a full-screen background?

2

I think it can be done in the “Page Setup” as described here:

When using a video background, suggest you use a Vimeo video. This will help save bandwidth on your own server.
Example on this restaurant website I built with Sparkle: www.mattakeese.com

@thc2603. Another way you can do it is drop in an “Embed” container on your Sparkle canvas and then “arrange / full page width”. Then you can collect your video as an iframe from Vimeo, YouTube, etc and place it in the “Embed” container “Style / Embedded content”.

Have play and good luck! :slight_smile:

Hi guys

Has anyone actually been able to do this well? I have a nice video I would like to use as a hero section at the top of a page but would be nice to have it fit full page width and scale as the page scales?

I have tried vimeo and embed but it fixes at 640px width !

Any help or suggestions welcome.

Thanks in advance.
