I am trying to make my youtube embedded video 100% width of the screen like can be seen here but without black space between the edges which can be seen here at the side of the video. this is caused by me setting a max-height of 600px.
.
I am able to make the video responsive, and I want to set a max-height on it so that when the screen is big that it doesn't take up the entire screen, but instead just a section that is responsive but remains the same height like on the site I have shown above.
Please see jsfiddle here. If you resize the jsfiddle and make it go as big as it can you will see that it stretches below the end of the screen. I want to prevent this, but without creating black space between the video and the iframe border. By setting max-width on the iframe this black space appears which i want to avoid.
I hope there is no confusion, but if so please let me know and i can provide more details. I can see that the iframe attributes are constantly changing in the page I have provided as an example, but cannot see where this is happening.
#home-video {
position: relative;
padding-bottom: 56.25%;
/* 16:9 */
padding-top: 25px;
}
#home-video iframe {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
.main-image {
width: 100%;
background: url(http://ichef.bbci.co.uk/news/976/cpsprodpb/10E0E/production/_88043196_bret_hart_1920x1080.jpg) center center no-repeat;
background-size: cover;
height: 100%;
}
<div class="main-image">
</div>
<section id="home-video">
<iframe id="video " src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/QP5_n5UmbHc "></iframe>
</section>
The page you provided uses this plugin to achieve that effect.
The plugin allows you to set a video as a kind of a background image in the same way as in the page you provided.
Hope it helps.

Tried different method to customise(hide YouTube title,logo etc). But still not working. My goal was to hide the title top bar primarily. So looking for some guidance if this is possible at the current time?
*Tried css method,iframe viewport method and some other
Well, there is a solution since youtube deprecated the parameter showinfo, you can use html and css.
First, you have to put the youtube iframe in a div:
<div class="frame-container">
<iframe></iframe>
</div>
Next, you must increase the size of the frame so that it is outside the browser window, and then align it in the centre, since youtube only tries to centre the video and keeps its logos on the sides, this trick should work.
.frame-container {
position: relative;
padding-bottom: 56.25%; /* 16:9 */
padding-top: 25px;
width: 300%; /* enlarge beyond browser width */
left: -100%; /* center */
}
.frame-container iframe {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
and finally, to prevent everything from stretching because of the size, you put it inside a wrapper.
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="frame-container">
<iframe></iframe>
</div>
</div>
.wrapper {
overflow: hidden;
max-width: 100%;
}
EDIT 1: In case you want to disable suggested video and just allow pause, you have to replace the url with:
In that case, you have to replace the youtube url with:
https://www.youtube.com/embed/VIDEOID?playlist=VIDEOID&loop=1
When the video is looped, the suggested videos will be disabled, and even with the controls disabled you can pause the video by clicking on the video.
I've been trying to fit the video into the full screen but had no luck. As per pics the video has two (white) pillars (Please click on the picture), the video dimension is 1280x720. I have tried changing the dimension of the video which didn't work. Can anyone help with this, please?
This video is in a section
Below CSS
#myVideo {
position: fixed;
background-size: cover;
right: 0;
bottom: 0;
min-width: 100%;
min-height: 100%;
z-index: -100;
filter: brightness(60%);}
remove margin from body and html
html, body{
margin: 0;
}
If still doesn't work, then open developers pane in Google Chrome and highlight the white area to see which element is generating the white space.
Seems like a margin issue with the video div, or a padding issue with whatever parent div. Link to page?
Is there a way to for web browsers to enable scrolling the entire height of a background image with background-image-size: 100%? I want to image to cover the entire viewing area horizontally, but doing so cuts of some off the image at the bottom. I want users to be able to see the rest of the image if they scroll down.
If you set to body tag a background image it will be shown in full height of page. Page height will depend on how many content on page.
From what I can tell, the answer is no. Instead, I wrapped the image in an img tag. Once it became content, scrolling worked as desired. Unfortunately it mean adding a z-index css property to the other content to get it to appear over the image.
Here's a snippet:
body {
width: 100%;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
margin-top: 0;
margin-bottom: 0;
}
#image {
width: 100%;
margin: 0;
}
#content {
z-index: 100;
}
The title says it all. I have an image with height: 100% inside each of a couple display: inline-block <li> elements. When their container is position: static. All is peachy. But when I change it to position: absolute/fixed, the <li> elements get width of the original image, not the scaled down width even though the image itself has correct dimensions.
This behaves as expected in Chrome, but breaks in Firefox.
Did anyone encounter this behaviour? More importantly, is it possible to fix it without JS?
Background: I am making a responsive position: fixed gallery that fits the screen with image thumbnails covering bottom 20% of the viewport.
Isolated Demo (click the button to toggle position: static/fixed ):
http://jsfiddle.net/TomasReichmann/c93Xk/
Whole gallery
http://jsfiddle.net/TomasReichmann/c93Xk/2/
I finally got it working. It seems that when you declare something with
Position:fixed, left: 0; top: 0; right: 0; bottom: 0;
Only chrome recognizes that as "explicitly defined dimensions". Once I added height: 100%; Other browsers caught up. Fortunately the height 100% didn't break the layout even when the content underneath overflowed viewport.
http://jsfiddle.net/c93Xk/3/
It still breaks uniformily across all browsers when you try to resize the window. I guess, I'll have to calculate the widths by hand with JS
DEMO
Check the demo, is that what you are looking for?
I have added these 2 lines of css to make it work like that:
/* Keep Position fixed at bottom */
#gallery:not(.toggle) { width: 100%; bottom: 0; top: auto; height: 20%; background: transparent; }
#gallery:not(.toggle) .gallery-thumbs{ height: 100%; }
I am trying to find a way to hide the black strips across the top and bottom of a vimeo video. I thought there might be a way to cover them up with CSS.
I basically wanted to achieve what this person wanted to achieve with an image in the link below except I want to do it with an embedded video whilst keeping it repsonsive.
Removing black borders 4:3 on youtube thumbnails
Many thanks.
HTML
<section class="d5-d13 c5-c13 b5-b13 a5-a13 video">
<div class='embed-container'>
<iframe src='http://player.vimeo.com/video/69252713' frameborder='0'
webkitAllowFullScreen mozallowfullscreen allowFullScreen></iframe>
</div>
</section>
CSS
.embed-container {
position: relative;
padding-bottom: 56.25%;
padding-top: 30px;
height: 0;
overflow: hidden;
max-width: 100%;
height: auto;
}
.embed-container iframe, .embed-container object, .embed-container embed {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
For your use case, I don't think you'll be able to use just css.
Usually we add letterboxing or pillar boxing around video iframes to keep the height and width at a certain ratio for presentation. But in that case, the black borders would just be as simple as a css background.
To keep things responsive, you would set the height to something like zero (like you have) and use the padding hack to keep the aspect ratio of the video (in this case a 16:9 video; 9/16 * 100 = 56.25%). That number would be either your padding-top or padding bottom value. Since the padding is measured with percent, this scales the padding in relation to the width keeping the correct ratio no matter what width you size the video to.
In your case, this video actually has the letterboxing in the actual video which you can see from the source of the video tag within the iframe. I'm not sure why you have the padding-top:30 but that makes the black borders even bigger. You'll need to hack your situation even more though because of the built in letterboxing. I put together a jsfiddle demo here which includes a few comments but it uses JS to achieve what you're looking for.
The concept for the code is as follows:
You want the outer container to crop off the bottom and top of the
video. Assuming you wanted the video to be responsive, and be cropped, you need to always have the actual video be larger than the outer container which masks it.
The video should be moved up in relation to how wide the video is vs the thickness of the top border
You'll want to shrink the height of the outer container a bit to compensate for the negative top margin yet still hide the bottom portion of the video
Personally I don't like doing expensive DOM operations on resize which maybe is the reason you asked for solely css but FWIW, you have the demo.
Ideally your best option would be to get the video re-recorded without the letterboxing so all you would need is the padding hack.
Cut the 1px off all edges with CSS:
.embed-container {
position: relative;
padding-bottom: 43%; /* Aspect ratio of the video */
height: 0;
overflow: hidden;
max-width: 100%;
}
.embed-container iframe,
.embed-container object,
.embed-container embed {
position: absolute;
top: -1px;
left: -1px;
width: calc(100% + 2px);
height: calc(100% + 2px);
}
HTML:
<div class="js-video [vimeo, widescreen]">
[video html goes here]
</div>
CSS:
.js-video {
height: 0;
padding-top: 25px;
padding-bottom: 67.5%;
margin-bottom: 10px;
position: relative;
overflow: hidden;
}
.js-video.widescreen {
padding-bottom: 57.25%;
}
.js-video.vimeo {
padding-top: 0;
}
.js-video embed, .js-video iframe, .js-video object, .js-video video {
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
position: absolute;
}

I had this same issue and the problem was simple to solve. My videos were embedded in Wordpress pages and posts using oEmbed. Wordpress was wrapping my embedded videos in <p> tags, the <p> tags had some margin which was causing black borders on the top and bottom of my videos. I used the following bit of jQuery to remove the <p> tags from my embedded videos:
$('.embed-container iframe').unwrap();
I solved this problem by removing padding-top in .embed-container
padding-bottom: 56.25%; will set screen ratio to 16:9 and remove the black bar in top and bottom.
padding top here will add extra black bar area back.
I created a solution for this exact problem using a portion of this github post. Removing Black Bars. It doesn't change vimeo's background color but merely hides it from the viewport.
https://github.com/davatron5000/FitVids.js/issues/130
#myid {
height: 112.6%;
}
However, If you add a width using CSS "vw"(viewport width) it will size consistently on any monitor/device without showing the black background. I added a margin so that the iframe will stay centered in the div once the width is shorter.
#myvimeoiframeID {
height: 112%;
width: 80vw;
margin: 0 15% auto;
}
In my parent container that holds the video, I added:
.embed-container {
padding-bottom: 40.25%;
}
This seems to make sure the video shows in the div. When I removed this section the video disappears but you can still here it play. So there is something that is pretty awesome with the padding-bottom: 40.25%;
I changed the vimeo embedded iframe code to have a height="100%".
So you can add a height to the iframe or you can do it in css. In order to control the height by css, I kept the base height in the iframe at 100% and any adjustments to that base height is through the css.
Simply put frameborder="0" as one of your attributes.
I just solved this -
The video container was built with a video-captions-container DIV which was a black transparent bar.
