Display full screen media backgrounds
Display full screen videos, audio, images, and color backgrounds. UMBG makes it easy. You can use videos from YouTube, Vimeo, Wistia, Dailymotion, or HTML5 Videos.
See how it works on the demo site.
Simple to Use
Unlike other plugins that make you go all over your WordPress website to find where you want to insert your shortcode, with UMBG you simply select where you want it to display right from it’s own page.
Admin pages are styled to match the rest of WordPress administration pages so everything matches with what you are familiar with.
If you need to uninstall the plugin, it does not leave any files on your server or any data in your database. It will completely remove everything associated with it and will not leave any “junk” cluttering your site, specially your database. Uploaded media files (images/videos) are the only files that UMBG will not remove.

FAQ

What UMBG does not do?

For media needs that go beyond what UMBG can do please use a media editing software to modify the media file further or consult the proper professional.
