AcuityVisualDesign Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 I'm working with a gym right now and want to show off some of their more unique pieces of equipment with looping videos of it being used instead of still images. What's the most efficient way to achieve this file type, bandwidth, and encoding wise? Link to comment
Ziggy Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 Likely the best way to do this is uploading the videos to Squarespace (rather than Youtube or Vimeo) and then use the video controls to autoplay and loop: AcuityVisualDesign 1 Please like and upvote if my comments were helpful to you.
