how solve the problem?

Hi,
note – always best to use Google to find support for basic WordPress issues, unrelated to the theme.

FYI – videos embedded in wordpress posts are managed by the wordpress oembed function, not by the theme. Meaning, ALL wordpress themes/site can place videos into a post — and has nothing specific to do with the theme.

So, if you “google” this issue it’s very common.

One solution was to lower the height of the video code you are embedding to remove the height which is taller than aspect ratio of the video, hence the black bars.

e.g., try changing the height of the embded

width="500" height="281"

If this is a “featured video” post format, then you might need to edit the theme template for this issue. But it looks like you’re just placing video as per normal practice into the post.

FYI: On Vimeo, You can adjust the size by going to your video > click the share icon at the top right hand corner of the player > click ‘Show Options’ > adjust size and embed.

Thank you, I thought this is a problem of theme. Thank you very much Chris S.

but the problem is that the size of the video does not react, do not resize videos

change the sizes of the code, but nothing changes. videos are one standard sizes videos do not change. i cant change video sizes.

What code are you pasting into the post ?

Are you using the Vimeo embed code for WordPress ?

When you got to the video on Vimeo they do have a specific embed code just for WordPress, and they also have option to save custom sizes, but that video being loaded is coming from Vimeo and is only appearing on the post in an iframe — meaning what is “inside” the iframe is being loaded *from* Vimeo.

So, you need to get the right setting from the video share page to use on the post in WP.

You can also “view source” on your actual live post to *see* the size of the video being loaded into the frame, to see if it’s the right/wrong size.

You may have to change the “frame” height in the HTML when embedding the video.

One of those annoying things to experiment with. Hope that helped 🙂

:: NOTE: TagDiv support may have BETTER ANSWER come Monday, to use some custom CSS to change the default height of the iframe.
