Complete Breakdown of Responsive Videos

Ulrich Pogson — Sun, 10 Feb 2013 00:48:35 +0000

There had been a few posts on the forum asking about adding responsive videos. At the time I was unable to give a good answer. Now I have taken time to do a bit of research and I able to give a number of responsive video solutions. The solutions are in the order of difficulty, starting with the easiest solution. These are the players that I am going to be covering today.

YouTube
Sublime Video
Wistia
Simple HTML5 Video
Simple HTML5 Video with flash fallback
MediaElement.js
Video.js
Flowplayer
JW Player
Important info on FitVids.js
Troubleshooting

Note – This post is written for the Responsive theme for WordPress but it does not mean it cannot be used for any other themes or site types. FitVids.js is integrated in Responsive so you will not need to add it when using Responsive. For all the rest of you please see the part on FitVids.js.

YouTube

Very easy to set up
Needs FitVids.js so that it is responsive
The video is hosted on YouTube
Works easily on multiple devices and browsers

The easiest solution is to use YouTube. It works on multiple devices. In some countries YouTube plays an advertisement before the video. If you upload your own video this should not be the case. At the end of the video you get a grid with other videos. If you don’t want those then when embedding YouTube make sure you uncheck the “Show suggested videos when the video finishes”.

YouTube share settings

Youtube Demo

The rest of the solutions are for those who do not want to use the YouTube player and wish to host their own video.

Sublime Video

Easy to set up with the code generator
Need to add JavaScript code
No need for FitVids.js
Basic HTML5 code with flash fallback for IE8
Works with self hosted videos and YouTube videos

Sublime offers a solution for your own hosted videos and also YouTube videos. Chose your option and then add the link to your media or for the YouTube videos add the video id.

Sublime Video Source

In the video setting the “Fit” option is very important.

Video Settings

At the end you can click on the “Get the Code” button at the bottom. You will then get a code like this.

The next step is to add the JavaScript. Every site has its own file.

Sublime Demo (YouTube video) Sublime Demo (hosted video)

Wistia

Very Simple – only one file to upload
the code is an iframe
Hosted on the Wistia servers
built in Video analytic
Free version (3 videos / 5 GB bandwidth / branded player)
Paid version begins at $25/mo
has additional featured e.g. social sharing, call to action, require email to play and a few more which you can find here.

Solution 1

Wistia Demo

Solution 2

There is a solution where Wistia supports responsive videos with their own code. So FitVids.js is not needed. To be able to achive this you need to chose the API option.

Select API Option

Then you need to add videoFoam: true to the same place where the videoWidth is.

Example code

Wistia own Demo Wistia my Demo

Simple HTML5 Video

Need to create markup
simple set up
videos hosted on own site
different players on every browser
IE 8 and lower are not supported

The video tag is a new standard to display videos. I have added more information then you might need. To understand it best I have split this section into two parts.

HTML5 Markup – HTML5 Video & Source Tags
Video Files – mp4, webm & ogg

HTML5 Markup

Here is a simple code example

So that the videos will work on multiple browser we will need multiple formats.

Here is a simple code example. I have also added a possibility to load a lower resolution video for smaller devices.

The video Tag has the following attributes. Some of them are easy to understand.

global attributes – standard atributes like class and id
autoplay
preload - none, metadata, auto
controls
loop
poster – poster=”/image.jpg”
height
width
mediagroup – control two media elements(videos) through the first element(video)
muted
src – video link

W3 Video Tag Reference

Here are the source attributes.

global attributes
src
type
media

W3 Source Tag Reference

So to have a responsive HTML5 video you need to have this CSS.

video {
	width: 100%;
	max-width: 100%;
	height: auto;
}

You can use a service provided by video.js to create HTML5 video markup.

Video Files

There are three main video files.

Format	Video Encoding	MIME-type
MP4	H264	video/mp4
WebM	VP8	video/webm
Ogg	Theora	video/ogg

Not every browser supports all formats that is why we include all of them in the html. The easist way to get your video in the different formats is to use Miro converter

Heads up! I had some problems playing the webm format in Firefox that was converted by Miro.
Miro Support said:

To get around this download an updated version of ffmpeg from here: http://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/

Take the ffmpeg.exe file from the updated build – and dropped it into C:\Program Files\Participatory Culture Foundation\Miro Video Converter\ffmpeg - replacing the existing ffmpeg.exe file and then convert without issue using MVC.

We will have to make a new release to update ffmpeg – but in the meantime you can use the workaround and you should be all set.

Mozilla Firefox – WebM, Ogg
Google Chrome – MP4, WebM, Ogg
Opera – WebM, Ogg
Safari – MP4
Internet Explorer 9+ – MP4
Internet Explorer 6-8 – No HTML5, Flash Only!

To test it your self Video Format Test

WordPress does not support webm at the moment and for that reason you will need to add the following code to your themes functions.php. If you are running a multisite you will need to check the list of allowed files.

add_filter( 'upload_mimes', 'custom_mimes' );
	function custom_mimes( $mimes ){
		$mimes['webm'] = 'video/webm';
	return $mimes;
}

If you want any further reading then read this

HTML5 multiple format Demo

Simple HTML5 Video with flash fallback

The same points as for HTML video except with IE8 and lower support

This is how the code would look like with FlowPlayer being used as the backup.

To save time you could use the Video for Everybody generator by Jonathan Neal to generate the code snippet according to your options. (FlashFox player seems to only resize if the browser is refreshed but does not change size dynamically,)

A complete explanation can be found at Kroc Camen’s site, the originator of this technique.

HTML5 with flash fallback Demo

MediaElement.js

Standard Player
out of the box responsive
Supports HTML5 Video
Automatically supports IE8 and lower
Working WordPress plugin

How to get it running on your site.

First you need to download the files.
Open the zip file and then extract the build folder
Move that build folder to your child theme. You can rename the folder if you want
Load mediaelement-and-player.min.js and mediaelementplayer.min.css

Load this javascript to activate the MediaElements player

// activate mediaelementplayer
jQuery('video,audio').mediaelementplayer(/* Options */);

Then you can include the HTML video code.
```
	
	
	
```

MediaElement Demo

MediaElement.js WordPress plugin

This is very simple. Install the plugin and then add this shortcode to the post or page. Just change the links to your video.

[video

Video.js

Flash Fallback
WordPress Plugin
Needs FitVids.js

Load the JavaScript and Stylesheet
Add the markup e.g.
```
	
		
		
		
	
```

Add extra css

.fluid-width-video-wrapper .video-js {
	position: absolute;
	top: 0;
	left: 0;
	width: 100%!important;
	height: 100%!important;
}

Activate FitVids.js for Video.js

// Target your #container, #wrapper etc.
	jQuery("#wrapper").fitVids({ customSelector: "div[class^='video-js-wrapper']"});
});

Video.js WordPress plugin

The plugin does make it a bit easier to host the files. So install the plugin then add this code. Just change the video links and size.


[video poster="http://mediaelement.grappler.tk/files/2013/02/trailer_1080p.jpg" mp4="http://videojs.grappler.tk/files/2013/02/trailer_1080p.m4v" webm="http://videojs.grappler.tk/files/2013/02/trailer_1080p.webm" ogg="http://videojs.grappler.tk/files/2013/02/trailer_1080p.ogv" width="960" height="540"]

Videos.js WordPress Plugin Demo

JWPlayer

Popular
Not responsive out of the box
Extra work for every video

Standard embed with responsive CSS Solution

I have found another way of making JWPlayer responsive. This should be a bit easier.

Add this code to the page or post

Change the div id so that is different for every video. Make sure it matches the code in the JavaScript.

Add this css

#player_1_wrapper {
	width: 100%;
	position: relative;
	padding: 0;
	padding-bottom: 56.25%;
}

#player_1_wrapper object {
	position: absolute;
	top: 0;
	left: 0;
	width: 100%;
	height: 100%;
}

You will need to add this css for every video.

So that the video keeps its proportion you will need to change the padding-bottom percentage. This is calculated video height/width*100. E.g. 540/960*100 =56.25%.

JW Player wo/ iframe Demo

iframe Solution

The solution that I have for JW Player is a hack that Ethan from Longtailvideo sent me. Here is how to do it.

Download the files
Copy jwplayer folder to your child theme using a ftp client
Create a html file in the child theme

Paste this code in



	
		
			JWPlayer Reponsive Video

Change four links – Change the location of jwplayer.js, jwplayer.flash.swf, the video link and either update the image link or remove it.
Then add an iframe with the link pointing to the newly created html file.
Then we have to make sure that FitVids.js will work with this iframe. More on this here.

JWPlayer iframe Demo

JWPlayer Documentation

Note! The JWPlayer WordPress plugin has been recently updated to use JWPlayer 6 and so I will be inlcuding that too soon.

FitVids.js

Here are a couple of important things to know about FitVids.js.

The current version of FitVids.js conflicts with Video.js and MediaElement.js. That is why I would recommend using my version. It can be found on GitHub.

So that the video doesn’t distort script calculates the aspect ration. This is calculated by dividing the height by the width in the html code. That is why it is important the width and height is correct.

When adding iframes from other sources then it is necessary to add selectors. So that I can add an iframe from this site I would use this JavaScript. It is also important to check if www is used or not.

jQuery(document).ready(function(){
// Target your #container, #wrapper etc.
	jQuery("#wrapper").fitVids({ customSelector: "iframe[src^='http://grappler.tk']"});
	jQuery("#wrapper").fitVids({ customSelector: "iframe[src^='http://www.grappler.tk']"});
	jQuery("#wrapper").fitVids({ customSelector: "iframe[src^='http://fast.wistia.net']"});
});

Troubleshooting

Here are two links to help with troubleshooting the video setup

Note! Please let me know if you would like me add another player. It might take some time. Please let me know if I should include any points that are important(Pro, Cons, Info) to the different players.

Enhance your Responsive Theme with Google Fonts

christine — Fri, 25 Jan 2013 02:28:41 +0000

One to the best thing about working with Responsive is that it comes with loads of options, yet is very simple to enhance. The fact that Emil has chosen to keep to arial as the base fonts makes the CSS super easy to enhance.

When modifying your Responsive theme, you will of course start by making a child theme! Emil, being the support guru that he is, provided a link in his style.css with details on how to get started and a child theme example!

If you’re interested in creating your child theme, go ahead download the child theme example and open it up with your favourite text editor.

In the style.css of the child theme, you’ll see some comments at the top which you can edit if you wish, but I wouldn’t bother (the information in there is very useful). On line 37, you’ll find another comment stating “Start from here”. This is where you can start adding your own style.

One of the easiest way to enhance your site is by changing fonts. And now that Google offers a large series of web fonts to choose from, we can achieve lots of different looks. Let’s say that we wanted to change our headings.

In the Responsive theme (the parent), you’ll find this following css on line 1113:

h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, h1 a, h2 a, h3 a, h4 a, h5 a, h6 a {
font-weight: 700;
line-height: 1.0em;
word-wrap: break-word;
}

Thus in your child theme, all we need to do is add a new font-family. Let’s head over to Google’s list of fonts and let’s choose one. Say we fancy Libre Baskerville, to use this font, you first need to add the font to your collection and click the Word Use in the bottom right hand corner.

Once selected, you’ll see that the blue screen at the bottom doesn’t move, and now you can scroll through the steps in the white part of the page. The first steps requires us to select the weight of our font. Let’s select the Bold and normal options.

The second is the character set. I usually leave my settings to default.

Third, is the method we will use to embed our fonts. Since we are making a child theme and we only want to make slight changes to our heading, we’ll click the @import tab and then copy the info and paste it in our child theme like so:

@import url(http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Libre+Baskerville:400,700);

Now back to our Google page, you’ll see that in step 4, the css needed is given to us. We’ll apply this to our style.css like so:

h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, h1 a, h2 a, h3 a, h4 a, h5 a, h6 a {
font-family: 'Libre Baskerville', serif;
}

And that’s it. You’re done. The most difficult part of this will probably be choosing the font. There are so many to choose from. Here’s a beautiful example showcasing some of the best Google fonts. Hopefully this will inspire you.

What’s New in Responsive?

Emil Uzelac — Tue, 15 Jan 2013 05:13:19 +0000

What to look for in the next* Responsive Release

Even the smallest improvements are making me happy and there is nothing more awarding to see how many people actually use something you created.

Correct, Improve and Release

You know that old saying “this is good, but it could be better” and I cannot agree more, not just for Responsive, that should apply for anything with few lines of code.

Good, but not good enough, great, but not too great where things get over-complicated, over-bloated or just something that no longer serves the original purpose.

Recently I talked to my buddy Chip Bennett and realized that it is time to go over the Theme again, make it better and also to include some new awesome features.

This release is not available yet. Post is heads-up only!

Theme Options

We now have new section where user can select default layouts

Responsive Layouts

Per-Post Basis Layouts

Layouts that were previously included in Responsive Page Templates are now available for individual posts as well.

Per-Post / Per-Page Basis Layouts

For Responsive Child Theme, the layouts are completely filterable, making it easy to add any other layouts that you need.

Proper Front-Page Handling

In the next Responsive update, a couple of template files will be changing. A new template file, front-page.php, has been included. This template file renders Responsive’s custom site front page. The home.php template file will now render the blog posts index.

This change ensures that Responsive properly adheres to the WordPress template hierarchy. Also, this change means that Responsive now has out-of-the-box support for the default WordPress reading settings configuration: blog posts displayed on the site front page.

The Blog and Blog – Excerpt custom page templates are still there, but now you won’t have to use them just to display your blog posts.

Instead, you can go to Settings > Reading, and use the normal WordPress settings to configure static pages to display your site front page and blog posts index.

For those of you who have a child Theme with a customized home.php file, please take note:

you will need to rename your child Theme’s home.php as front-page.php

That’s it! And in fact, you can make that change right now, and your site will continue to work properly.

For everyone else: you won’t have to change anything for your site front page.
If you’re using the current home.php as your site front page, you won’t notice any changes. If you’re using a custom page template as your site front page, Responsive will continue to use it.

Theme Options Improvements

The first change, you’ll only really notice when you first install Responsive; but in the next version, Responsive will use option defaults unless/until you configure settings. But for those of you using Responsive child Themes, the second change will be far more useful: Responsive’s option defaults will be completely filterable.

Template-Part Files

The next version of Responsive will be even easier to customize, thanks to quite a bit of DRY code, such as the loop header, post meta data, and loop navigation, being cleaned up, made consistent across multiple template files, and abstracted out into template-part files.

Theme Hook Alliance

Responsive already had several hooks but now we have a full Theme Hook Alliance integration as well.

Taking this opportunity to say thanks to Chip for helping me with Responsive.

Responsive Opt-Out plugin

Ulrich Pogson — Mon, 14 Jan 2013 05:32:16 +0000

Responsive Opt-Out allows visitors of your site to switch between the flexible and fixed width layout.

This simple setup creates a body class called “responsive” and “fixed-width” both are added to the body class of your Theme. These two classes are used to define whether or not visitor wants a “responsive” environment.

Here is a demo site that I have created using Responsive:

Demo

This the code you use for the switch buttons.

Fixed Width
Reponsive

This CSS would display the right button in the right view.

.responsive .fixed-width-link {
	display: block!important;
}
.responsive .responsive-link {
	display: none!important;
}
.fixed-width .fixed-width-link {
	display: none!important;
}
.fixed-width .responsive-link {
	display: block!important;
}

Here I was working in a child theme so was unable to edit the parent media queries but was still able to get a good result resting the css in the media queries.

The basic fixed width CSS needed for Responsive would be:

/* =Fixed Width
-------------------------------------------------------- */
.fixed-width #container,
.fixed-width #footer {
	width: 960px!important;
}

.fixed-width .grid, 
.fixed-width .grid-right,
.fixed-width .menu ul, 
.fixed-width .menu li, 
.fixed-width .footer-menu li, 
.fixed-width .sub-header-menu li {
	float: left!important;
}

.fixed-width .top-menu {
	float: right!important;
}

.fixed-width #logo {
	float: left!important;
}

.fixed-width .tinynav {
	display: none!important;
}

.fixed-width .sb-holder {
	display: none!important;
}

.fixed-width .menu {
	display: block!important;
}

.fixed-width #featured p {
	font-size: 18px!important;
	line-height: 27px!important;
}

.fixed-width .featured-title {
	font-size: 60px!important;
}

.fixed-width .featured-subtitle {
	font-size: 2.25em!important;
}

.fixed-width .call-to-action a.button {
	font-size: 24px!important;
	padding: 15px 35px!important;
}

.top-widget {
	float: right!important;
}

.fixed-width .top-widget area,
.fixed-width .top-widget select,
.fixed-width .top-widget textarea,
.fixed-width .top-widget input[type="text"], 
.fixed-width .top-widget input[type="password"] {
	width: auto!important;
}

.fixed-width .widget-title,
.fixed-width .widget-title-home h3 {
	font-size: 24px!important;
	height: 23px!important;
	line-height: 23px!important;
	text-align: left!important;
}

.fixed-width .main-nav #responsive_current_menu_item {
	display: none!important;
}

.fixed-width .main-nav .menu {
	top: 0;
}

.fixed-width .main-nav .menu a {
	font-weight: 700!important;
}

.fixed-width .main-nav .menu li a {
	color: #fff;
	border: none;
}

.fixed-width .main-nav .menu li.current_page_item,
.fixed-width .menu .current_page_item a,
.fixed-width .menu .current-menu-item a,
.fixed-width .main-nav .menu li {
	background-color: transparent;
}

.js .fixed-width .main-nav .menu li a:hover,
.js .fixed-width .main-nav .menu li li a:hover {
	background-color: #808080;
	background-image: -webkit-gradient(linear,left top,left bottom,from(#808080),to(#363636));
	background-image: -webkit-linear-gradient(top,#808080,#363636);
	background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(top,#808080,#363636);
	background-image: -ms-linear-gradient(top,#808080,#363636);
	background-image: -o-linear-gradient(top,#808080,#363636);
	background-image: linear-gradient(top,#808080,#363636);
	color: #fff;
	filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr=#808080,endColorstr=#363636);
}

Download

You can also find the plugin on github.

Extra

I would be interested to see how many visitor use the button. You can track the number of click of the buttons with the use of Google analytic events. The results can be viewed in the Google Analytic dashboard. The html for these buttons will look like this.

Fixed Width

Reponsive

Thank you Andrew for supporting this plugin.

I’ve created Responsive and gave every second of my spare time each day, not just to assist with the setup, but also to help individuals, businesses and non-profit organizations to re-design their sites.

However you’re the one that made my Theme the most popular in past 9 months and without your help Theme would not be where it is now.

Happy New Year!
