 * When I embed a Youtube or Vimeo video and iframe is created width a width of 
   1200px. How (where) can I change this to full-width?

 * Hi [@tastymouse](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tastymouse/) – this depends
   on a couple of things, such as the theme you’re using, and whether it’s a block
   theme.
 * In Twenty Twenty-Three (a block theme) for example, elements – including video
   embeds – set to **Wide alignment** have a default width of 1200px.
 * You can change that value in the Site Editor under **Styles > Layout**:

 * Let me know if this helps! If you need further assistance, please provide a link
   to a page on your site with a video block, so I can take a look directly.

 * Oh, but if you just want a full-width video, choose the **Full** option from 
   the alignment settings above the block, no need to modify the Wide width as I
   showed above. Screenshot:

 * Hi [@zoonini](https://wordpress.org/support/users/zoonini/) ,
   I see how this 
   works with Twenty Three, which I still need to be accustomed to since it doesn’t
   use the customizer.
 * I usually use Astra theme, I’ll ask them, else I’ll have to change to Twenty 
   Three.
 * Thanks, Tom

 * Asking the Astra folks sounds like a good idea!
 * FYI, it’s not just block themes (like Twenty Twenty-Three) that provide a full-
   width option for video embeds. For example, I just tested Twenty Twenty and the
   full-width option’s there too. So if you wanted to stick with a classic theme
   that uses the Customizer, there could be other options. 🙂
