Twenty Twenty-Five: How to decrease the size of YouTube embeds?

    I’ve started adding song samples to my website’s music review pages, and I like to do so with the YouTube embed block. You can see an example of that linked below.

    However, I noticed that the size of these embeds is exceptionally, needlessly large on desktop. It pushes the comment section et al. further down the page, which is liable to increase bounce rate and decrease interactions.

    Naturally, I care about that, as well as general aesthetics. I tried looking at the block’s options, but could only locate a way to adjust margins, which had no effect. Thank you for any help. I am completely new to anything regarding code.

    Put the YouTube block inside a Group block.

    Then change the size of the Group block container.

    Thank you, George! Before I mark this as resolved, what is the best way to automate this process? Naturally, selecting YouTube embed, then grouping it, then typing in the dimensions is a bit of a pain. Is creating a custom Pattern with a preconfigured Group size the most convenient solution?
