Video has a opaque overlay

  • Hi there, I have a problem with a website I’m helping a friend with and i’ve spent a day trying to fathom out a problem when playing video.
    It either has an opaque layer of the video itself has some kind of opacity setting but this is the link to my problem: https://www.arguseurope.co.uk/team/

    as you can see, the video at the top is not clear at all. I’ve tried looking at some css settings but can’t find anything obvious and i’ve googled the problem with no success so i’m asking the experts

    The video file is hosted locally and is just put into the header using a centered_video tag. It’s using the corpress theme.

    If i embed a vimeo or youtube video then they play fine but of course don’t loop and can’t be used as a banner.

    many thanks in advance for any help you can give

    p.s. It’s using the corpress theme

  • either remove the class ‘bg5’ from div class=”inner bg5″ or edit style.css .bg5 and change .bg5 {
    background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.6);
    color: #ffffff;
    }
    to
    .bg5 {
    background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);
    color: #ffffff;
    }

    Right, found the theme/assets/style.css (for some reason i was looking for the mediaelement.css that i found earlier, i thought it would be in there but I have made those changes, problem is i don’t have ftp access, for some reason it’s resticted to just one ip address but i have made the change using the file manager in the control panel but unfortunately it’s not saving the changes. I’ll let you know how i get on
