Problems with getting a youtube video...
I've got a problem with getting a YouTube video and my S-Drive blog responsive. It's been awhile since I set these up but I'm just now getting back to straightening them out.
The video is set up as a HTML element on my home pages and with advise from on here I set up the HTML in the design panel as such:
<div class="video-container"><iframe width="800" height="605" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/eidLv5-yTow" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
I also went into HTML editor and made up a new document with this:
.video-container {
position: relative;
padding-bottom: 56.25%;
padding-top: 30px;
height:0;
overflow: hidden;
}
.video-container iframe {
position:absolute;
top:0;
left:0;
width:100%;
height:100%;
}
and saved in as a custom-style css document in the css folder in the exported file. After uploading there was no effect to the video. So I'm assuming I'm doing something wrong. Can anyone advise what it is I need to correct?
Thank you,
Linda

Use http://embedresponsively.com/ Just paste in the URL to the video and it will provide you with a block of markup that makes the video responsive.

Great, thanks Scott. Looks like that will work.

Now what do I do about the S-Drive blog that we want to start up. I haven't done anything to it except set it up to embed into our website. How do I get it to be responsive?

It seems that when you use embedresponively that it does not pick up the option - Show suggested videos when the video finishes when its not checked. My client called very upset when a competitor's video came up after his finished! Can't understand why
Byron,
Is there a work-around for that issue?
Thanks,
MJ

I just posted a general question on the forum for that - the only thing I can think of right now is the old way we did with RLM.

I had to ask this question and here is the answer to save some folks some time as it is related.
For W3C validation the <style></style> section of the embed code needs to be placed in the <head></head> section of the page.
