To autoplay a muted video on loop in Webflow with responsive behavior and hidden player controls, you can follow these steps:
1. Upload your video: First, make sure to upload your video to Webflow's Asset Manager. Supported formats include MP4, WebM, and Ogg.
2. Add a video element: Drag and drop a video element from the Elements panel onto your page. By default, it will have a player control bar and an initial portrait placeholder.
3. Remove player controls: With the video element selected, go to the Settings panel on the right-hand side. Under the Video section, uncheck the "Show controls" checkbox to hide the player controls.
4. Mute the video: Still in the Settings panel, enable the "Mute" option under the Video section. This ensures that the video won't play any sound.
5. Set the video to loop: In the Settings panel, under the Video section, check the "Loop" checkbox. This will make the video replay automatically when it reaches the end.
6. Adjust the dimensions: By default, the video element will occupy the entire width of its parent container. To make it responsive on all screen sizes, you can adjust its dimensions using Webflow's Flexbox, Grid, or CSS techniques.
7. Fine-tune responsiveness: If you want the video to behave differently on mobile devices, you can apply custom styles through Webflow's responsive design features. For instance, you might want to change the video dimensions or even hide it on smaller screens to optimize the user experience.
Remember to publish your site to see the changes in action. By following these steps, you'll have a muted video that automatically loops, with player controls hidden, and responsive behavior on all screen sizes, including mobile.
