Overview
The "Background Videos for Visual Composer" plugin is designed to enhance the Visual Composer page builder by enabling users to add background videos to any row element within their layouts. This plugin supports various video formats including mp4, webm, and ogg, ensuring compatibility across different browsers. Users have the flexibility to add a semi-transparent overlay with a solid color or a pre-defined pattern to their videos, and configure several options such as adding a pause/play button, setting an auto-pause time, specifying a poster or fallback image, and adjusting the overlay opacity. Developed and maintained by the BG Stock team, this plugin remains useful for those utilizing older versions of Visual Composer, though it is not compatible with the latest updates.

They sell a good idea but it does not work. After installing it does nothing, there is no add video option as stated! Someone else in the support forum already asked about the same problem 2 weeks ago and did not get a reply. From the looks of the support there is nobody home!
