 * Hi Sara, could you let me know how you’re going about inserting the Vimeo embeds?
 * Could you please switch to Text/HTML view on both posts, and paste the code into
   two [Pastebins](http://pastebin.com/) so I can have a look? Once you’ve created
   the Pastebins, copy the links here. Thanks!

 * Could you please try using the [oEmbed](http://codex.wordpress.org/Embeds) method
   for inserting Vimeo, instead of using an iFrame?
 * Just put the URL for the video on its own line within each post, like this:

 * Thanks, Sara.
 * It looks like one of those videos is being made available by the creator in a
   larger 1280×720 version, while the other is only available as a smaller 640×360
   version. That is the only difference I can see. Here’s two screenshots to show
   you what I mean:

 * [http://cl.ly/image/0h0Z0N0k0X2U](http://cl.ly/image/0h0Z0N0k0X2U)
 * I took those screenshots on the Vimeo page for each video, under the “Download”
   link for each.
 * You might want to try experimenting with some other videos that offer the larger
   size and see if that makes a difference.

 * Hi Kathryn,
    about this post video [http://178.239.177.177/fannie-farmer-from-share/](http://178.239.177.177/fannie-farmer-from-share/)
 * I like the video in small size.
    I don’t like the black stripe does not continue
   below the video.
 * Is it possible to obtain the black streak continues ( without white over black)
   below the “small” video?
 * Thanks!

 * Hi Sara, this code should remove the white background so the black band shows
   through:
 *     ```
       .format-video .entry-content {
            background-color: transparent !important;
       }
       ```
   
 * An easy way to add custom CSS like this is to install the [Jetpack plugin](http://jetpack.me/)
   and activate the [Custom CSS](http://jetpack.me/support/custom-css/) module. 
   This way, your CSS won’t be overwritten when you update the theme.
 * Or, you could set up a child theme, so your changes won’t be overwritten when
   you update the theme. If you’re new to child themes, you can explore these guides:
