My game doesn't show the video bg, only buttons. How do I solve this?

Thanks for sharing this! I never knew it was a feature.
However I can't get my WebGL build to run -- it always posts the error:
"Unable to parse The file is corrupt, or compression was misconfigured? (check Content-Encoding HTTP Response Header on web server)"

Usually this can be solved by enabling decompression fallback, but that didn't seem to be the case here. Any idea what might be going wrong here?
