My site is not live yet. Squarespace told me to just add a spacer over the content, however it crops the videos, and doesn't always work. 

Any suggestions on adding background videos to maintain the aspect ratio at full bleed or even inset? 

i'm trying to make page to replace the coverpage page feature. I love the auto play video.
