    anyway, i added this to my list, would be great to be able to make elements have a certain fixed height one day. however, this is kind of low priority right now

    if you'd like us to take another look at your css, please create a new page, insert a html5 video and use a html class on it that has your css applied and post the link please <3

      Dear @vj

      have a look here:

      .html5video .html5-video-placeholder-image.w100 img {
          width: 100%;
          height: auto;
          position: absolute;
          left: 0;
          top: 50%;
          -webkit-transform: translateY(-50%);
          -ms-transform: translateY(-50%);
          transform: translateY(-50%);
          height: 100vh;
          object-fit: cover;
      }
      .html5video .ph {
          position: relative;
          padding-bottom: 100vh !important;
      }
      

      Best!

              I've achieved the desired effect by placing the video inside a carousel, but now the issue I see is that the standard video controls aren't appearing. Is there a way to make them show up?

                <script>
                window.laytheme.on('newpageshown', function(){
                jQuery('.lay-carousel-wrap video').each(function(){
                jQuery(this).attr('controls', 'true');
                })
                })
                </script>
                

                if you put that in <head> content in lay options -> custom html & css
                does that work?

                or instead of using that script, maybe use a normal html5 video element and this css?:

                .html5video .ph {
                    position: relative;
                    padding-bottom: calc(101vh - 74px)!important;
                }

                    when i was on your website i saw a cool thing about putting your video in a carousel

                    on any aspect ratio / screen dimensions, the full video will always show as it will always be contained in the browser width and height

                    if you use the html5 video solution i think this wont be the case

                    maybe you can add:

                    .html5video video {
                    width: 100%!important;
                    height: 100%!important;
                    object-fit: contain!important;
                    }
                    

                    then maybe it will work like this too if you use a html5 video element instead of only a carousel

                    and for the carousel i noticed that the unmute button loses its position when you resize the window. if you update the carousel addon now, this should be fixed

                      Before you post:
                      1. When using a WordPress Cache plugin, disable it or clear your cache.
                      2. Update Lay Theme and all Lay Theme Addons
                      3. Disable all Plugins
                      4. Go to Lay Options → Custom CSS & HTML, click "Turn Off All Custom Code", click "Save Changes"

                      This often solves issues you might run into

                      When you post:
                      1. Post a link to where the problem is

                      3. If the problem is difficult to explain, post screenshots / link to a video to explain it
