Video background

A page that moves behind your words.

Instead of a still image, you can set a video behind your page. It is the effect you see on the big landing pages: a moving ocean, a crowd, a drone over a landscape.

WAOU handles it natively, in the same Background panel. You bring in your video, you switch on "autoplay + loop + muted", and it is done. The video runs silently behind your words and pictures.

On a phone, WAOU automatically falls back to a still image (the first frame) to spare the visitor's battery and data — good practice, and one the mobile browsers insist on.

✓ A silent looping video behind the page
✓ Switched on or off page by page
✓ Falls back to a still image on phones
✓ Filters and opacity you can adjust
✓ Works with any web video (mp4)

💡 Compress your videos before bringing them in (aim for 5–15 MB) so the page loads fast.
