 * I hope you’re well!
 * My homepage background video will not immediately load and instead shows a blue
   transitional background. Even if I set up a background fallback, there is a lag
   and visitors see blue.
 * I’ve gotten the video size to under 800KB and I still experience this lag.
 * Would you please advise?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fbackground-video-load-lag%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
