    Hmmm, I wonder how to take a short video and play it as a full-size / responsive background to the homepage? Anyone have a suggestion how I might do this in Genesis?
    I don't really have a specific child theme in mind for this, but I would be testing it on Agency Pro and or Minimum.

    Thanks!

    I tried using this plugin... It seems to work if I implement it on a single page or post as seen here... http://comedycodes.com/index.php/sample-page/

    But in the settings when I tell it to work on the homepage, no dice. Is it because the homepage is all widgets? The background is still the same as the sample page above though. You'd think it would work everywhere. Any idea why it won't work on the home page of that site?

    Thanks!!
