That file does not exist - use F12 (browser dev tools - console) in the future.

Hi Oxy

Thanks for your reply.

I had placed Sunrise.mp4.mp4 in htdocs folder.

Is it the correct location to place or should I place it in another folder.

Thanks for looking into the other errors as well.

I will be changing it to Static ip etc.

Uday

I can’t find any file called Sunrise.mp4.mp4 in your htdocs folder. Can you please verify that the file is actually there?

Note that there is a 10 MB file size limit on free hosting. If your video file is approx. 10 MB or larger, it will likely have been deleted after uploading. Please reduce the video size or host it on a specialized file or video sharing host instead.

[Earlytester]

yes the file size is 100 mb

I am trying to upload using any CDN.

Thanks for your help.

100 MB as a video background?

people will hate you right away because loading such a page will take a long time.

and it is not effective - because the video will appear in 15+ or more seconds

if you really want, then use Youtube
which, depending on the device and resolution, will also send a smaller file as streaming.
