Wordpress LScache Plugin: streaming movie performance
Last Updated on: Wed, 15 Apr 2026 00:00:02 Hi Folks, On our branding website, we have a streaming video in the first section of the home page. This video was buffering quite quickly when we first deployed it. However, in the last week the performance has been slower, more jumpy/granulated on Windows, and sometimes doesnt play in Safari/Mac. Can you check to see if Litespeed Cache is impacting on the performance of the movie please? Thanks, Steve The page I need help with: https://brand.insightdesign.com.au/ Hi @insightdes, normally LiteSpeed Cache plugin will not affect the video loading as its a static file. Did that performance change because you turned ON LiteSpeed cache plugin or migrate to LiteSpeed server? If yes, could you provide the steps on how to reproduce the issue? LiteSpeed cache was on before and after the performance change. The video loads fine for me in Chrome on Mac, Chrome on Windows. The problem lies on my bosss Macbook in Chrome. Hes cleared his cache, and experiences a longer buffer time than when we first published the movie on the home page. Hi, Is that background video in the homepage the one you talked about ? Please check against with dev tool and see how long that mp4 file takes to load. Best regards, Hi, Im going to mark this topic Resolved, due to lack of activity. If you still need help, please provide the previously requested information. Well be happy to reopen the topic if necessary. Thanks!
