    If I add a YouTube video to a page or post, without the shortcode and specifying the video width, the right edge of the video is being cut off by the menu strip on the right hand side between 1200 and 992 pixels. Unfortunately an iPad Air 2 in landscape orientation is just within those dimensions. I could force the width, but then the video wouldn’t be responsive.

    So if you’re planning what to fix in the next theme update, I recommend this.

    Thanks,

    Looking at this a little more closely, it looks like the videos only resize to either 480 pixels or 640 pixels wide, so not exactly responsive. I suppose I could put in a bit of jquery that resizes the videos, but obviously a css fix would be a lot better.

    OK, I’ve found an inelegant workaround. I think the calls to FitVids.js that is supposed to fix the scaling of videos isn’t working, so I’ve added a script in the post that call FitVids() and that correctly sizes the videos. So I hope the creators of this theme are reading this and will know to fix this.

    Thanks,
