Is this the end of Facebook header videos?

Facebook Pages that have been using header videos may have noticed that they have stopped working and have been replaced with a single frame from the video. Additionally, the option to upload a video header or select a new video for the header has disappeared. Despite a quick Google search, there appears to be no information coming from Facebook as to why this may be.

Our team discovered that the only way to upload a video to your header is to use the Facebook Business Suite. When you load up business.facebook.com and select your page, you will see the option "more tools" on the left of the page. Once you have clicked on this, you will "view page," and this will take you to an older version of your page where you will find the option to upload or select a video has returned to your header.

The Workaround is Unworkable

Unfortunately, this workaround will not work. Although you are able to select a video and even upload a new one, only a screenshot of the video will display. This has left many Facebook Page owners searching for a solution, but for now, it seems that header videos are no longer supported on the platform.

If any new information becomes available from Facebook, we will update our readers.

We did reach out to Facebook's public relations team but they did not provide a response.
