To load a higher fps (frames per second) file in Webflow without sacrificing the scroll animation feature, you can follow these steps:

Optimize your file: Before uploading the file to Webflow, make sure it is properly optimized to reduce its size without compromising the quality. Use video compression tools or software to compress the file size while maintaining a high quality.
Convert the file to the appropriate format: Convert your video file to a format that is supported by Webflow, such as MP4 or WebM. These formats have better browser support and compatibility.
Upload the file to a third-party video hosting platform: Instead of directly uploading the video file to Webflow, host it on a third-party platform like YouTube or Vimeo. These platforms can handle high fps files better and provide better streaming services.
Embed the video in Webflow: Once your video is uploaded to the third-party platform, you can simply embed it in your Webflow project. Copy the embed code provided by the platform and paste it into an embed element in Webflow.
Adjust settings for optimal performance: To ensure smooth playback and performance, you can make certain adjustments:

Set the desired size of the video: Use Webflow's built-in video element to set the size of your video. This allows you to control the dimensions and avoid resizing issues.
Autoplay vs. on-demand: Decide whether you want the video to autoplay or only play when the user interacts with it.
Set the appropriate poster image: Choose a poster image that represents the video content well. This image will be displayed before the video starts playing.

By following these steps, you can load a higher fps file in Webflow without sacrificing the scroll animation feature, while ensuring smooth playback and optimal performance.
