Hi Pablo and team. Wonder if this shall work as it is possible to have a different film in the 480 breakpoint? I have the original backgroundfilm in a layout grid/style setting. My Default 1920 and bp 1460, 1024, 768 and 480. The original film works in all breakpoints and doesn't even publish for the 480 bp? Should this work?

No, you cannot have a different background video in breakpoints.

Ok Pablo, understand. Thought you could because it was possible to change in the lowest brekpoint. Will put this to suggestions because it is very important that you can make a more suitable and smaller video for the mobile devises.

Why not add a second layout grid with the alternate video for the 480, then hide it in all the other views. Of course, the original layout grid will have to be hidden in the 480 view. It will add to the page weight somewhat, but it works.

Hi gofrank... as you wrote "it will add to the page weight" and that what I am trying to decrease by having a smaller video... so it makes it worse.

Honestly, i'm not sure if there is much of a difference between what goFrank suggested and what you are wanting in terms of page weight. Even if you could specify a different video in a breakpoint, both videos would still be loaded in the background. Even when you use 'display:none' in the css, they would be loaded. As with images, there is no HTML "srcset" for videos. I don't know if there is a javascript solution for something like this or not.
I would just make sure your video is compressed as much as possible and not terribly long so it loads quickly.

Hi crispy tnx for tuning in
You know I was out for this earlier on and used the extension from [rz] RP. That extension worked as a charm with both pictures and videos and different formats. But unfortunately it is a little outdated now and I have changed all the extensions I used from [rz].
I'm not a programmer but that extension showed it is possible to achieve.

Not tested the following script but it may offer a
possible solution. Not tested in anyway for information only.

Hi Bacon... tnx for your posts
And yes I have asked almost the same but at that time I did not notice that you could link another video at the mobile breakpoint and it keep it. You can not do this in any of the other breakpoints? But ok... now I got the answer for that to and yes it would be very convenient to have option for this function so you can keep down the loading time and bandwidth consumtion for the small usnits.
Tnx for the link
