videopress for self hosted site is displaying aspect ratio of videos wrong

  • Unknown's avatar

    I’ve got two problems I’m dealing with, with videopress that is being used on a self hosted wordpress site.

    1. The aspect ratio should be 16:9 and it shows up that way in my media library but when posted it distorts to a 4:3 ratio. The files were uploaded as a 853 x 480 in size and are coded as h.264.

    2. The posts I have read show that you can change the width and height of a posted video by adding an “h=” and “w=” with the dimensions in the shortcut for embedding. In the post they show the code as [wp video PbIxLwMp] but mine show up as [videopress PbIxLwMp]. Why is mine showing up differently then people are referring to it? Also the h and w codes don’t seem to work on my shortcut for embedding.

    PLEASE ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED!
