Request for Guidance on Full-Width Player with Preserved Video Dimensions

[Solved]

Hamid 8 months, 2 weeks ago

Hi FV Player Support Team,

I hope you are doing well.

I am looking to configure the FV Player to occupy the full available width of the page, but I want to ensure that the video itself does not get distorted and maintains its original aspect ratio. I have seen a similar implementation on platforms like Udemy (see here https://snipboard.io/hHwpx5.jpg), where the player adapts to the full width (green rectangle), but the video content retains its dimensions without stretching or distortion (red rectangle).

Could you please advise on the best approach to achieve this with FV Player?

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Best regards,
Hamid

Hello Hamid,

Please set wp-admin -> FV Player -> Settings -> Sitewide FV Player Defaults -> Default Video Size to 100% for both Width and Height and then FV Player will fill any container size it has.

It will use the actual video aspect ratio to make sure it fits in. If it’s not available, it will assume 16:9.

Thanks,
Martin

Hi Martin,

Thank you very much for your prompt response and clear instructions. I applied the settings as you suggested, and it works perfectly! The player now occupies the full width while maintaining the video’s original aspect ratio, just as I wanted.

I appreciate your assistance.

Best regards,
Hamid
