Video
Styling for videos.
Responsive video
By default, videos are responsive, meaning that their max width is set to 100%
and their height to auto
.
This will fill the parent container width with the correct aspect ratio of the video (16x9 vs 4:3). The controls
attribute will overlay the controls at the bottom of the video. Aspect ratio is not altered.
Note that the autoplay
attribute does not work on iOs devices, and Chrome will not autoplay if there is audio. Overall, avoid the autoplay attribute unless it makes sense for the content.
