Player dimensions — Proportions and size of a player. Basically, a player is flexible and takes the proportions of the video being played. For the width, the player always gets the full width of the article if not placed in a controlled div element.

  • Smart Fit dimension shows vertical videos in their original size on Mobile devices and limits them by square area on Desktop, so they don't take too much space on the screen. Horizontal videos are shown as they are both on Mobiles & Desktop.

  • 16/9, 4/3, Square fix player proportions as selected.
  • Fill page element — player fits the div-element it is placed in


Sound starts — How sound is started. Basically, all autoplayed videos are started muted. We don't recommend to autoplay videos with sound as they can be blocked by some browsers and it is annoying users. For the videos started manually you can choose should they be with or without sound.

  • Autoplay for all visible videos – all videos visible on the screen start automatically 
  • Autoplay for one visible videos – one video visible on the screen starts automatically 
  • Click to play – video starts by a click
  • Mouse over – video starts on a mouse hover
  • Page loaded – video starts after page is loaded

100% Visible — Videos are started automatically


After video ends — What to do after the video is finished.

  • Replay button  – replay button appears.
  • Loop — video plays from the beginning. So looped videos never stop. This is the most popular option for short videos.
  • Stop at last frame — video stops when the last frame is reached. No fade-offs, no elements. The best way to show 'Animated images' When you want to animate something which becomes an image at the end.

  • Play next recommended video  – next video from Recommended folder plays automatically.
