Unfortunately, embedding an MP4 video directly from your local device into a Webflow project without internet access is not possible. Webflow does not have the capability to host videos directly on their servers. It's important to note that Webflow is a web design and hosting platform, and their hosting service is designed to deliver assets (including videos) to your website visitors over the internet.
To display videos on your Webflow site, you will need to use an external video hosting platform that supports direct video uploads. These platforms, such as YouTube, Vimeo, or Wistia, allow you to upload your videos and generate an embed code that you can then insert into your Webflow project.
Here's the typical process for embedding a video into your Webflow project using an external hosting platform:
1. Upload your video to your chosen video hosting platform. Make sure the video is in MP4 format and ensure compatibility with the hosting platform's specifications (e.g., file size, quality, etc.).
2. Once the video is uploaded and processed on the hosting platform, they will provide you with an embed code. This code contains HTML that you can copy.
3. In your Webflow project, go to the page where you want to embed the video.
4. Add a new HTML embed element to the desired location on your page. You can find the HTML embed element in the Add panel on the left-hand side of the Webflow Designer.
5. Paste the embed code provided by the video hosting platform into the HTML embed element. This code usually consists of an HTML `
6. Adjust the size and positioning of the HTML embed element on your page as needed.
7. Preview or publish your Webflow project to see the embedded video in action.
While it's not possible to directly embed an MP4 video from your local device in Webflow without internet access, using an external hosting platform is a common and practical approach to display videos on your website. This allows for optimized video delivery, quality, and compatibility across different devices and browsers.
