Twenty Seventeen: Video header issues

[stansk1954]

I have run into a problem with 2017 theme. I put a video in the header and when I do I loose all the picture posts on the front page except for Home page. When I remove the video they come back. Plus it was very difficult to remove the video. I had to do a hack to remove it. stephenstefanski2@…

Replying to SergeyBiryukov: I am not sure what your answer is.

Hi @stansk1954 - thanks for reporting this!

I think I'm seeing the same issue that you're describing. For me it's only happening in Chrome (the site looks fine in Firefox); the first image is kind of cut off, and the others are totally gone.

Partially gone:

These screenshots are from ​http://2017.wordpress.net/.

Is this the same as what you're seeing?

If it is not the same issue, can you please include a screenshot of what you're seeing on your site when you add a header video?

Thanks!

I've gone ahead with a patch for this, because I'm pretty sure we're talking about the same thing (@stansk1954, please let me know if that's not the case!).

It looks like this is somehow related to a recent Chrome update.

44479.patch​ includes a CSS fix suggested here: ​https://stackoverflow.com/questions/50804554/css-background-attachment-fixed-fix-for-chrome-67

I don't really get why it's only happening when the video is enabled, though; the CSS for .panel-image isn't changed in that case.

I belatedly realized my first patch caused issues in Firefox (the featured images no longer remain fixed, losing the faux-parallax effect). 44479.2.patch​ uses a different approach that doesn't cause that same problem.
