Handling of self-hosted videos for different formats

Aras Puodziunas

Allow to self-host both desktop and mobile format videos without loading hidden sections. 
We don't want to use Youtube etc... So we self hosted both desktop and mobile and made the video hidden. 
When visiting the website, we noticed it loads the hidden video! No good!

Hi,
Normally, you should use the same video for all devices. I'm not sure why you had to used different videos for devices like that.
Please send me the link to your page and take some screenshots of the video section so I can check it from my end to see if I can help.

You'll see for mobile format, we extend the video to allow for a better mobile experience. Desktop is wider format and makes the text fit better.

Aras Puodziunas: This concerns the video aspect ratio and the elements inside the Section. On mobile, you should reduce the size of the elements within the section and decrease the spacing between them to lower the section height, so the video displays properly. Please watch this video and adjust accordingly: https://www.loom.com/share/d14c04064b2644949b03847335888a4b
