The **Video hero** section displays an auto-playing video (without sound) to add dynamism into your page.
If you want to add a Vimeo or YouTube video, which includes sound, you should use the [Video section](/minimog-theme/theme-sections/video.md) instead.
In this article, we will show you how to add and edit a Video hero section.
