Image Overlay

Image Overlay: Show or Hide an Image Overlay

Note: Using Image Overlay overrides Autoplay. Videos will not autoplay if an Image Overlay is set.

If Image Overlay is set to Yes, the following options become available:

  1. Image: Set your Image
  2. Lazy Load: Defer loading of the video resources until the user clicks the Play button *
  3. Image Size: Set your Image Size
  4. Play Icon: Slide to YES to show a Play Icon
  5. Lightbox: Slide ON to view the video in a Lightbox. Once ON, you will have to set an image

Lazy Load replaces the video embed code with a static image of your choice, and optionally, a play icon on top of the static image. The video is only loaded when the user clicks on the image.
This greatly helps speed up the initial page load time because the user’s browser doesn’t download the many extra resources Youtube and other video services embed, all before a user even needs them. If you want faster load times on pages that embed videos, Lazy Load is a good option to enable.

Style

  1. Aspect Ratio: Change the videos aspect ratio. Choices include: 1:1, 3:2, 4:3, 16:9, 21:9, and 9:16
  2. CSS Filters: Set up a blur, brightness, contrast, saturation, and hue
