On the Frontpage of Hardcore Surf and Skate Shop we use our JoomlaXTC Background Video Player in the debug position to play a video in the background and have several modules turned on. You first need to make sure that you have a HOME link set to Featured Articles and set the article count to ZERO and set the Templates advanced parameters to show NO COMPONENTS on Frontpage.
DEBUG - Youtube Background Video Module
In the DEBUG position we use our YouTube Background Video Module to create a background video for the Frontpage. In order to recreate the video you will first need to upload the Module to your Joomla install. Next simply enter the YouTube Video ID for your custom video or use one of the following videos we created for the demo: (*Make sure to publish the module on the homepage)
