Looping Video in background

Hey, is there any possible way I can have a video looping in the background of a game? I've tried iFrame, but whatever I seem to do, it just loads over all of my other objects which is not what I want. Any help is appreciated. Thank you, Rogalog.

If you're using the Video plugin, I'd say there's no chance to play it underneath the canvas. Just open a console ( in Chrome or Firefox/Firebug ) and observe where the video object is position relatively to the canvas one. You'll see what I mean.

If you have a short-animated video, you may add it as a sprite, frame by frame, although you'll have to be careful with the size, and whether you want to export it to mobiles or just PC.

Thank you for the replies, I see that the Video Plugin will not work, as it completely covers the screen. As for jegcelorio's post, the video is only about 9 seconds long and I want it on repeat. How would I go about splitting it into frames as you suggested?

You may want to import the video into a video editor and there from to export all the frames individually. Photoshop ( late versions ) might be able also to do this.

Okay, just tried that. Split it into 200 frames, and even with 200 frames the quality is pretty bad. Doesn't look like this is possible then. :( Maybe something which allows videos to be put behind objects will pop up in the future.

Thanks for the help anyway guys, greatly appreciated.
