Video List Section

Add a Video List Section on a page to easily add your YouTube/Vimeo videos that will be playing on the page. This is a great way to keep your website visitors engaged.

Pixpa supports embedding videos from YouTube or Vimeo. You cannot directly upload a video to your website. Apart from this section, you can also add your videos to Gallery or a Banner.

Pixpa enables you to share your YouTube or Vimeo profile in the social links. You can also add your music files hosted on Soundcloud in the Music section.

Points to be noted:

You can upload a .gif file wherever videos are supported.
In case the video you have added loads a lot, click on the play button and pause it for a few minutes. Then, resume the video. This way, it loads better with less buffering.
