@@ -2,21 +2,8 @@ Drop your landing assets here:
 
 - `loop.mp4`: the hi-res looping background video (recommended: H.264, muted)
 - `poster.png` (or `poster.jpg`/`poster.gif`): lightweight preview image shown before video loads (and when video is blocked)
-- `config.json`: optional overrides for `videoSrc`/`posterSrc` (useful for pointing `videoSrc` to an external URL in production)
-- `config.local.json`: optional local-only overrides (checked first, ignored by git)
 
 The landing page references these paths directly:
 
-- `/landing/loop.mp4` (fallback)
-- `/landing/Loop.mp4` (fallback)
+- `/landing/loop.mp4`
 - `/landing/poster.png`
-- `/landing/config.json`
-
-Recommended setup to avoid large git history:
-
-1. Host the video externally (example: GitHub Release asset).
-2. Set `videoSrc` in `config.json` to the hosted URL.
-3. Keep a `config.local.json` for local testing if needed.
-
-GitHub Release URL format (works well for large files):
-`https://github.com/<owner>/<repo>/releases/download/<tag>/Loop.mp4`
