@forcesail, Thanks for the feedback. We found this not to be the source of the issue. The player automatically loads with default ratio If the specified one is unsupported. We have made some changes to not apply a ratio automatically.
16:9 is not the default (neither is 4:3). But it was set automatically before the update making the ratio parameter obsolete.
Hello,
It’s all very strange to read, because in my case I see that the parameter “ratio” is working (v.1.2.2.7) and until I changed the code all videos have been opening (with all last versions of the plugin) in only 16:9 horizontal ratio independently of the original ratio of the video and the ratio set as shortcode parameter.
Since I corrected the php of the plugin it works perfectly even without ratio parameter it detects the correct ratio.
You can try:
(https://forcesail.ru/berth/stern-to/) – the 1st is vertical video
[evp_embed_video url=”https://forcesail.ru/wp-content/uploads/vv/stern-to-.mp4″ width=”360″ ratio=”9:16″]
[evp_embed_video url=”https://forcesail.ru/wp-content/uploads/vv/stern-to-shrink-.mp4″ width=”710″ ratio=”9:16″]
https://forcesail.ru/berth/spring-off/
[evp_embed_video url=”https://forcesail.ru/wp-content/uploads/vv/multi-spring-off.mp4″ width=”864″ ratio=”4:3″]
Before the update, 16:9 was hardcoded regardless of the video dimension. The ratio parameter in the shortcode was not in full effect either.
As of version 1.2.2.8, If you wish to load your video in 16:9 please specify ratio=”16:9″ in the shortocde (not ratio=”9:16″).
v.1.2.2.8 – without ratio param it works now.
With my correction it works even with ratio param :))
v.1.2.2.8
I removed ratio parameter from the plugin all shortcodes and the player size adopts to the actual video ratio, independently either it’s 16:9 or 9:16 or 4:5 or 5:4 o 3:4 and so on.
Good work! Thanks!
