Modern web pages are created nowadays under the technical and design paradigm of responsive web design, so that a maximum range of users with a wide variety of devices can be reached. If you want to offer your video content professionally, it is imperative to discuss how you can optimally adjust the used player for playing your videos to meet the responsive design requirements.
The VideoManager offers you the possibility to adjust your responsive player by means of the Player Generator. Here, you can set breakpoints and also show or hide individual controls for players within the set breakpoints.
Breakpoints are predefined points (in pixels), where the layout of the web page should change, for example, for the display size of tablets or smartphones. In this way, the fixed layout is avoided, where the browser of the mobile device shrink the web page in its entirety so that the content is unreadable.
To make the configuration for responsive players, proceed as follows:
First, make the global settings for the visibility of the controls (see section " Controls ").
Controls that are not globally visible, are automatically not available on responsive players.
- By clicking on the appropriate tab, enable the option "Responsive player".
- First, define the breakpoints by using the controller. Alternatively, you directly enter the desired values in the fields provided.
- Now you can view or hide the controls available for the respective player width, by clicking on the [
] icon of the item. In order that customizations also have an impact on the public player, click on the [Save] button beneath the preview player.
By storing your player settings, all published videos using this player are affected.
