The Video Scroll feature is a dynamic tool that adds a video to your page that plays as a user scrolls. It's a great way to make your website more engaging and visually dynamic. You can use it as a standalone section or embed it within other sections.

Loop Count: Choose how many times the video will loop.
Loop Alternate Direction: Toggle this option to make the video play in the opposite direction after each loop.
Limitations
Frame Rate: The Video Scroll component generates a maximum of 12 frames per second, with a total maximum of 300 frames. For very long videos, this can result in a lower frame rate.
Video Length: For the best results and a smooth effect, it is recommended to use videos that are at least 25 seconds long.
Section Width: The Video Scroll section always covers 100% of the screen width and cannot be resized.
File Size: Videos should not exceed 512MB. If your video is larger, you should compress it or increase the playback speed to reduce its file size.
Tips for Optimal Performance
Keep videos short and engaging to maintain user interest.
Always compress large videos to ensure smooth playback without buffering.
Experiment with the offset settings to create the most impactful and seamless scrolling effect.
