  • 1.  Building Video Backgrounds / Video platforms

    Posted 01-29-2020 13:10
    Hello Community,

    I am new to this platform and wanted to ask a few silly questions.

    1. Does all of our Flex Event content automatically get pushed to the CrowdCompass App?

    2. What video platform is best to hold videos. I heard Wistia was good. Which leads to a third question

    3. Can you embed other video plaforms besides Vimeo and You tube?

    4. Can you make a silent video background video behind a text overlay

    Hello Drew,

    1. No it does not, the design of the CrowdCompass app differs from the design of the Event website, things like admissions items, sessions, descriptions will come through into crowd compass.

    This article will go more in depth on the integration between CrowdCompass and Cvent:

    2. This is subjective, youtube probable has the best servers to since google's infrastructure is huge, vimeo is also a great option, both vimeo and youtube will have better server infrastructure than most video hosts.

    3. Yes you can use YouTube, Vimeo, or Wistia:

    4. No, you cannot have a video as your hero background
