Transparent Video – Webm file

    I’m able to use a .webm file with the default video player on WordPress 5.8. It’s encoded with an alpha channel, which works flawlessly on most modern browsers.

    Unfortunately, I’d prefer to use the Easy Video Player as it seems to give better control on CSS. And here’s the bad news: the .webm file I was previously using doesn’t work: it’s not transparent anymore as the background is now full black.

    Is there a way to make it work?

    Hi @naa986 !

    I’m using Easy Video Player v1.2.1.

    Here’s the link: https://www.needfx.net/tgv-italia-esperienza/

    As you can see, I’ve added two videos. The first one is included with EVP and the second one is included with the default video player. They are both using the same video link.

    The first video has a black background instead of being background, and despite me setting the background-color property as ‘transparent’.

    Oooh… I found the issue! I was editing the wrong CSS property!

    Instead of changing only .plyr__poster, I updated several CSS properties.

    .plyr__controls {
    background: transparent !important;
 }
.plyr__video-wrapper {
    background: transparent !important; 
}

.plyr--video {
    background: transparent !important;
}

    Thank you for your time and your plugin ??
