👉️ Description
Morkva Product Video lets you attach an MP4 video to any WooCommerce product – simple, fast, and theme-friendly integration:
✅ MP4 video field per product (supports relative or absolute URLs to files hosted on your site).
✅ Thumbnail is always placed second in the gallery (position control is read-only in free).
✅ Basic playback preferences (Autoplay / Loop / Mute at start).
✅ Works with popular themes (incl. Flatsome, Storefront, Block themes).
✅ Lightweight and Performance-friendly: the gallery still loads its images as usual; the video uses preload=”none”.
Need catalog autoplay previews and advanced behaviors (e.g., single page autoplay that replaces the main image, or choosing last position in gallery)? Check out the Pro version.

MP4/H.264 is recommended and used by default. Other containers/codecs aren’t guaranteed across all browsers. Keep bitrates modest for fast playback (e.g., 720p–1080p, 3–8 Mbps).
No. The thumbnail must be selected from the Media Library so that WooCommerce can inject it into the product gallery.
In the free version it’s always the second gallery item.
The plugin sets the video to preload=”none”. The gallery images load as usual; video bytes are not fetched until needed. For best results, keep your thumbnail optimized and sized similarly to product images.
It works with most themes that use the standard WooCommerce gallery hooks. We’ve tested with Flatsome, Storefront, and block-based themes. If your theme replaces the gallery entirely, results may vary.
Yes—the video is attached to the product (not to variations). If you need per-variation videos, that’s custom work.
Those enhanced behaviors are Pro features.
