Wow, I don’t even know where to start. I watched the video about recreating the GoPro home page and followed along building my page. I changed a few little things here and there. When I went to drop in the BG video, it worked, but was misplaced. i changed some setting and did it again and ever since Webflow crashes and acts all funny if I try and add a BG video.
I try and add it, get the choose a video box, and it never goes away, unless I use the back button, or open another page. Just now, even when I went to my pages menu I only saw 2 or 5 pages I have, and now I see none. If press create a new page, nothing happens. Hit the browser back button, and everything is there!
As an experiment I used the add media item adding video and managed to add the video via the Vimeo link (video is just a tad over 5MB). The first time I previewed it it worked, fine, now it doesn’t play. I have the BG video place holder there (in a section under it), but once again when I double click to change (or add the content) I get the video settings/add video dialng box and essentially the program locks up. For example I have the navigator panel open, and when I click on the “setting”, or any other tab for that matter they change color, but nothing happens (and the BG video dialog box is still open).
If I click on pages, I can go to another page, but those tabs still don’t work (even with the new page open). Click the back button on my browser and it takes me back to the dashboard where I open the project, and all is back to working order (except I still only have the vimeo video placeholder and it doesn’t work (btw - I edited and rendered that video from 4K footage on this same desktop without issue using Davinic Resolve).
So is this me? Am I losing my mind? I’m gonna go try on my laptop and see what happens. Oh, and I even re-started my computer for kicks, nothing changed. Just created a fresh page with nothing but a body - dropped in the BG video “bam-mo” all locked up with the dialog stuck open.
My guess is this will all work fine tomorrow for some reason, or maybe even on another computer, but right now I’m frustrated, so at least I get to vent :). Thankfully I have no deadlines, but still I’d prefer not to spin my wheel with nothing productive as a result.
