Video Banners

Showcase your content with video banners

Written by Support

Video banners are a dynamic way to bring pages and programme pages to life. They automatically play video content as part of your banner, adding movement and excitement to your site.


Adding Video Banners to Pages

  1. Navigate to:
    ​ONE Admin > Content > Pages

  2. Find the page you want to update and click Actions > Manage Content

  3. Click Add new content block > Banner Carousel

  4. Click Add new slide on the pop-up to customise your slide

Customisation options:

  • Choose between Custom Slide or Programme Slide

  • Fill in the required fields

  • Select a video to display

Click Save Content Block

Your video banner is now live on the front end!


How video banners behave

  • Videos auto-play without sound

  • Users can toggle sound on/off using the icon on the right-hand side

  • Multiple banners can be displayed in a carousel format by adding additional slides

Example: A carousel with three programme slides automatically cycles through videos for a dynamic effect.


Adding Video Banners to Programme Pages

  1. Navigate to:
    ​ONE Admin > Programme Management > Programmes

  2. Find the programme and click Actions > Edit

  3. Add your video to the banner section

The video will now appear at the top of your programme page and play automatically.


Please Note

  • Once the video finishes, it returns to the original banner image

  • Videos will not play on mobile; the standard banner image will display instead

  • This feature is currently only compatible with Brightcove


Why use Video Banners?

Tips

  • Keep videos short for maximum engagement

  • Use silent auto-play to avoid interrupting users
