Media Elements

Media Elements

The Video and Audio elements let you embed responsive media directly in the page — responsive because, unlike most other video embeds, they automatically adjust to different screen widths.

Background videos

Two options add background video to the canvas: the Background Video Container and the Full Screen Background Video. Both are made up of two nested elements — a Container and an HTML5 Video element. Since the Video element is nested inside the Container, use the context menu when hovering on the canvas to select it directly.

  • Background Video Container — adds a video background to a section of the page. Resize the parent Container to whatever height and width you need.
  • Full Screen Background Video — covers the entire viewport (canvas) with video.

When one of these elements is added to the canvas, a media placeholder appears until a real source is set.

HTML5 Video

On the Element pane → Selected Element Properties, configure the video source and an optional poster image. The element supports MP4, M4V, WEBM, OGG, QuickTime, and MOV file types.

Video Element Controls

Click the red × next to a source file to remove it, or click Add Video Source to add a new one. Available controls:
