When to use it

When the video is the content and needs no accompanying copy.

Setting it up

1. Add the section and set the video and poster image.
2. Upload captions with the video in Shopify admin — the player surfaces them, but it cannot generate them.

Where the content comes from

Shopify-hosted or external video.

Notes and cautions

• Space pauses playback, and switching browser tabs pauses it automatically.

Section settings

Every setting on the section itself, in the order it appears in the theme editor. Group headings match the editor's own grouping.
