Possible to create video header in Cafe Pro?

[ginabegin]

I would like to replace the background image in the first section of Cafe Pro's front page with a looping video instead of a background image to create a large video header. I tried messing with the site I am working on a bit and ended up adding a demo video to the "Before Header" widget which is obviously wrong (you can see it at the very top of my site now).

Under the video section there is a photo of a kitchen and a text box in the middle that says "Kitchen Gallery". The image in that section is what I would like to replace with a video.

Is that possible, and if so does anyone know how or have a place I could get more info? I've asked at Treehouse where I'm taking courses on web design, looked through every tutorial page that Studiopress has put out about Cafe Pro, and I've searched WordPress forums, sent an email to customer support, and Googled in general, but can't find anything.

Thank you for the help!

I would like to do the same thing - put a video on the first section of Cafe Pro where the logo is.

The only thing I could figure out to do is use mb.YTPlayer plugin. Problem is that the video is behind the image. I removed the image, but now I just have the white background. I know that the video is behind it but I can't figure out what to do in the css to make the white background disappear or become transparent.

Look at http://designitdigital.com/dahliaweddingvideos

I'm also using genesis extender and when I click to show my css builder on the front end, it makes the white background drop down and I can see a part of the video behind it.

Thanks for your help!

I would like to figure out the same for the Parrallax Pro theme. A background video in the top widget of the homepage.
