Maniola Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Site URL: https://www.clipsk.com/test I'm trying to embed or upload videos displayed in vertical / 9:16 aspect ratio but I can't find a way to make it work. The video block always shows up in standard widescreen format. If I use an embed block and define aspect ratio in pixels in the embed code, the video flows outside of the container/block. https://www.clipsk.com/test Magopavlov 1 Link to comment

This worked, but the video player is wider than the video. How could I match the width? How do I apply it to only videos that I upload that are vertical, the CSS above didn't seem to do the trick.

Fulleren Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 I uploaded a vertical video into assets. When I select in the video blocks, it appears as a vertical video within a horizontal block. Is there a way to adjust this block so that it fits to the video? In this case, the video is 4x5. Link to comment

alexpac Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 have the same problem , how do you solve it? Link to comment
derricksrandomviews Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 Adjust the block with CSS code as explained very well right here: https://insidethesquare.co/squarespace-tutorials/video-block-size Link to comment
Fulleren Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 Thank you everyone. I ended up doing a workaround that @Tuanphan (commented above) recommended to me, which is to upload the video via Manage Custom Files, and then use a custom block to showcase it. Link to comment
tombigby Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 Hi folks, Having similar trouble with video formatting as a background to a section on a homepage. Formatting of the video and the spacing of the adjacent section all looks good on desktop and mobile landscape, but on mobile portrait view, I end up with a big space underneath (image attached). Website is here: BaltimoreSmartLine.org If you need the PW DM me please. Here's the CSS i'm using for video formatting now: /**Full Width Block for mobile**/ @media screen and (max-width:767px) { [data-section-id="5e8e5176957b3306a8e428c7"] video { width: 100% !important; height: auto !important; left: 0 !important; top: 0 !important; bottom: 0 !Important; } [data-section-id="5e8e5176957b3306a8e428c7"] { height: 35vh; margin-top: 20vh; } } Any thoughts on how to tighten up that spacing on mobile portrait view without messing up other views? Thank you! Link to comment

Panos_vsl Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 this is such a big issue how is Squarespace not resolving this? We have vertical videos for many years now and many creators have both vertical and horizontal videos because of course MANY times a project will have both. I have both format videos on a page and its not clear at all how to actually resolve this. The chrome extension doesn't seem to show the IDs so i can try some of the solutions proposed here. We live in a world were vertical video is here to stay , come on Squarespace give us some kind of toggle within the video container!! Can anyone help? I will have this issue on several pages so if there is a solution i will follow it... https://clover-vanilla-t98p.squarespace.com/excercitatio pass: testing Link to comment
