Hi Community

Background Video (in Wordpress) does not work
- on Chrome Browser with https

.. it does work
- on Chrome Browser without https
- on Safari Browser with https
- does work on all Mobile Browsers with https

Don't think it's a FrontEnd/Wordpress issue.
I suppose it's a let's encrypt certificate issue, I installed a few days ago via bncert-tool

Thoughts?
Thanks a lot for your help!

Hi @gartner,

You seem to have mixed content (non secure HTTP links to images and videos). I guess the video has a non secure link and Chrome refuses to play it. There are a few plugins that fix this:

Hi @michiel
Thanks a lot for your very fast reply!
Appreciate it!
Great idea, unfortunately, that did not solve the issue.
The video is saved in my library, it is not added via Link.

Any ideas?
Cheers
