    Hey friendly people in this forum,
    I am using thumbnail videos and it works awesome for desktop. But for mobile it requires too much bandwidth. Is there a way to fall back on images as project thumbnails on mobile?
    I found this thread here, Armin said it should actually be the default behavior.. but for me videos play right away on mobile (after loading). do I miss a setting there?
    my page: https://rlon.com/stories/

    thanks for any advice and best wishes
    Philipp

      Dear Philipp

      @rlon

      Are the correct setting applied within:

      Customizing ā–ø Project Thumbnails > Project Thumbnail Mouseover


      Just to be sure šŸŒ

      Sincerely
      Richard

        @Richard I think he wants no video thumbnails on mobile only.

        @rlon for me, your stories thumbnails are loading pretty slow on desktop too. I like this tool: https://handbrake.fr it compresses videos to a minimum size.

          Hey @Richard and @felix_rabe, thanks for the feedback. Indeed I am looking for no video thumbs on mobile only. it seems to be the default but does not work for me..

          @Richard, these are my settings in the customizer, seems not to have any effect on the video thumbs for mobile. Screenshot 2021-06-13 at 12.12.46.png

          Thanks Felix for the hin on the videos, will check this tool.

          have a good weekend :)

          I also code custom websites or custom Lay features.

          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
          2. Does the problem happen on Chrome, Firefox, Safari or iPhone or Android?
          3. If the problem is difficult to explain, post screenshots / link to a video to explain it
