    Hi there,

    I would like to play a video full screen (or at least full width) with sound and an option to mute and pause the video.
    Background video works and i got it to play sound, but now you can’t turn it off which can be annoying to visitors.

    Could you help me with this?

    Best, Eva

    Hey Evadidly,

    Please refer to this post – http://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/color-section-with-100-container/ and create a Color Section element with 100% container width and place Video element inside that color section, best of both worlds :)

    Best regards,
    Yigit

    Hey Yigit,
    Up til now I got the background video working in a content section. But now (maybe it was before as well) the video doesn’t autoplay anymore. And since there are no play/pause buttons it doesn’t play at all.
    I actually can’t find the ‘color section’ in my builder, does this still exist?
    Ideal would be a full screen video with play/pause option and with sound.

    Hope to hear from you.

    Best, Eva

    Hi Eva,

    Please send us a temporary admin login and login URL so that we can have a closer look. You can post the details in the Private Content section of your reply. Also please point out where we can see the actual problem, I get redirected to /en/ when I navigate to the URL you posted and that leads to a 404 page.

    Best regards,
    Rikard

    Hi Rikard,
    That is also a problem I just opened a new thread about the 404.. I’m not able to fix it on my own I think..!

    The URL of the original site is http://roefamsterdam.nl/ but your browser probably goes to English. Please click on the dutch flag for this issue. When you click on “Wat” there should be a video that might or might not play. Sometimes it does sometimes it doesn’t.

    Hi guys,

    That wasn’t my question, the sound already works actually.. I’ve been waiting quite some time for response to this question, and now I get an answer to another question.. Should I open a new thread or something?

    Here’s the question again:

    Up til now I got the background video working in a content section. But now the video doesn’t autoplay anymore. And since there are no play/pause buttons it doesn’t play at all.
    I actually can’t find the ‘color section’ you referred to in my builder, does this still exist?
    Ideal would be a full screen video with play/pause option and with sound.

    Best, Eva

    Hi,

    Thank you for the clarification, I’m sorry you had to wait long.

    Color section is the 2nd Layout Element from right.

    Try adding the video to Color Section > Section Background > Background Video

    Please note the audio does not play by default in a color section.

    Load the audio using a plugin like https://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?type=term&q=background+sound

    Or give these plugin a try https://wordpress.org/plugins/video-background/

    Allright thanks. I am using the theme in Dutch so it’s called a Content Section.. ;)
    Than I’ve already been using this background video option for a while. The only big problem is that I’ve made it play sound and autoplay. But sometimes the autoplay just doesn’t work and people would never know that it is a video…

    So long story short; is it at all possible to have a background/full screen video with play/pause buttons… (and sound..)?

    Thanks!!

    Hi!

    You can add a custom audio control to the color section. Example here:

    Unfortunately, this is not going to work for the play/pause button.
