Add video to homepage Prestige Theme without using Youtube or Vimeo

[JWDMK]

It seems that using embedded Youtube vids are killing side speed. I was wondering how i could replace the video on homepage on prestige theme with a uploaded video on Shopify itself while saving the exact ux (video can be seen through menu and mobile responsiveness). So basically keeping everything exactly the same as it is but just use an uploaded vid from shopify instead of hosting it on youtube and then use the link..

The website is www.suitsuit.com

@JWDMK - you will need to upload your video to files section , which you can find from settings at bottom of shopify admin. This video should not be more than 20MB.

Then you will need to add custom liquid or html section to home page where you want video and then using html video tag you can use uploaded video URL to show video on homepage.

@JWDMK

I understand you want to host your video on Shopify instead of Vimeo and YouTube

NOTE: Make sure that you use MP4 video format and your video file is smaller than 20MB

Step 1: Upload your video on the Files page:

1. From your Shopify admin, go to Settings > Files.
2. Click Upload files.
3. Select the video to upload. Click Open.
4. Copy the URL of the video and store it somewhere (you 'll need it later

Step 2: Add HTML video code to custom HTML section of Prestige theme:

Try it and let me know

HI, thanks a lot but this just adds the video to the home page but doesnt give the same experience as the current video. For example the video is seen through the menu etc. compare the two printscreens
