[OTHER] WCMS appears to be overriding Multimedia Player code styling

GoC-corypaetsch opened this issue · comments

Hello! I'm looking for some explanation or guidance about the Multimedia Player and how videos are being shown when trying to play a video in an overlay.

I see there is "official" coding to have the player launch in an overlay. When I copy the coding from the style guide (https://wet-boew.github.io/v4.0-ci/demos/multimedia/multimedia-en.html), specifically under Multimedia player in an overlay, I notice the coding includes the following;
<video poster="demo/video1-en.jpg" title="Looking for a Job">

After I make my adjustments to customize the webpage and save in WCMS, when I go back and look at the code I now see;
<video width="300" height="150" poster="demo/video1-en.jpg" title="Looking for a Job">

This is a problem because I'm expecting my video to play in the full width of the overlay. This appears to cause my videos to play in a tiny frame on the overlay, which users are finding frustrating. As far as I can tell in the style guide information, this shouldn't be occurring or it doesn't give guidance on how to avoid this re-sizing. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

I'd verify the version of WET being used.
Currently the demo page is using v4.0.75 - 2024-03-05.

I am assuming WCMS is Wet Content Management System?
