change aspect ratio of video player

bozoleclown

Hi,

is there a way to change the aspect ratio of the media player embeded (youtube, vimeo, etc....)?
it's 4:3 by default and i wish to make it 16:9

thx for yout help

I believe embeds are being reworked right now, so that will probably be in 2.6 or 2.7

Interestingly, just adding this CSS (e.g. in a custom stylesheet)

.Video.YouTube .VideoPreview img {
    width:560px;
    height: 315px !important;
}

...works just fine for YouTube videos. The preview image will be stretched, but the player adjusts itself to the preview dimensions.

thx in the meantime i also found this trick to stretch the preview and player.
it will be a great thing if we can adjust the size of media player directly in the options.

@bozoleclown do you mean that you found a solution to the stretched preview image with the css styling? Is there a way to resize the video with stretching the preview?

i found an other solution but the result is the same, the player is 16:9 and the preview is a 4:3 image generated by youtube stretched to 16:9
it's not perfect but it's work.
