Making embedded videos automatically responsive

We have released an update for Premium websites that will automatically display videos at the correct width and height based on the available space. This update requires Javascript, so will only activate if the user has this turned on in their browser.

This works for embedded videos from YouTube, Vimeo or Facebook added via Passenger Content. It is designed to work with videos that are presented in a 16:9 widescreen ratio.

If you have a video hosted on a different video host to the ones listed above and you’d like it to be automatically responsive, please get in touch with your Account Manager.
