 * Hello to all the forum;
 * I was wondering if a small video of 10 seconds can be added on the homepage that
   starts automatically when the page is loaded and once the video ends and the 
   start page appears behind it. As if it were an intro.
 * Thanks in advance
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fvideo-intro%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Yes it’s all possible, but will you drive your users away?

 * Hi [@anevins](https://wordpress.org/support/users/anevins/);
 * What do you mean, I will expel my users?
    It is not advisable to add a video 
   at the beginning? Something I have read about that but many very elegant pages
   still preserve video as an introduction. What is your opinion about this? I like
   to know all points of view. PS: Thank you very much for the plugin link

 * The reason I have caution is because people expect websites to load in a couple
   of seconds these days.
 * With the video intro, users will still have to wait a second for your server 
   to respond, then another few seconds for your website to load, then 10 seconds
   to see your video, and only then your website will make itself visible to the
   user.
 * Unless someone really wants or needs to see your content, they will navigate 
   away.
