Guest Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Site URL: https://heptagon-halibut-debs.squarespace.com Hello! I like the background video feature in which you can add background videos to sections, however, is there a way to play the video upon scrolling to it when it enters the viewport? Background videos auto-play by default, and I would like the video to play when the user eventually scrolls to it. My website is just one of the templates on Squarespace, with a 4k video of Costa Rica video linked in one of the sections towards the bottom. How would I do this to that video as an example?

It can pause/play Youtube and/or Vimeo background videos as they come into the viewport. Did this help?
