Video
The Video element embeds a video hosted on YouTube or Vimeo via its URL. Vivlab automatically detects the platform from the link and adapts the offered options.
Video link
Paste the full URL of the video into the Youtube or Vimeo video link field (for example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=…). A preview appears above the field to confirm that the video is detected.
If the link isn't recognized, the preview shows No video and the video won't appear on the site until you correct the URL.
Auto-play
The Auto-play option starts the video automatically when the page loads. When enabled, sound is disabled and the video fills the element (browsers prevent auto-play with sound to respect the visitor).
YouTube-specific options
When the URL points to YouTube, additional options appear:
- Sound disabled — mutes the sound on play.
- Loop playback — the video automatically restarts at the end.
- Enhanced privacy mode — uses the
youtube-nocookie.comdomain so YouTube records no information on visitors who don't start the video. Recommended to respect privacy and GDPR.
Style
The style panel gathers the background, borders, corner radius, shadow, inner margins, filters and transitions. You can also frame the video in a device mockup for an immersive presentation effect.
