  Hello,

  At the top of my site, under the header block, I’d like to put a video as background (found on http://coverr.co/). On this background, I’d like to write a sentence and to put an opacity on the video. I never did this with Dante or another Theme, which element should I choose. Can I host the video as a media or do I need to use Youtube or Vimeo…
  Tx for your help and nice day
  Marine

  Hi Marine,

  Yes, you can host it or you can use YouTube/Vimeo to serve the video.

  To place the video on the page, you can use either the Swift Slider, a Row asset from the Page Builder or the Video Asset.

  Thanks.

  Be sure you do not have the Row set to Window Height.

  Please add a WP login for me.

  Hi

  It’s a tricky one, the height will stay at content height plus the padding, but as you change the width of your browser the video background will change width, so sometimes you will see all of the video and other times you wont

  There isn’t really any workaround
