    This is a really cool plugin and works well for the most part. But I am having an issue with some providers including Ustream, where I end up with black bars on the left and right side in the embed. I’ve also tried this using the iframe for JustinTV and Vaughn and have the same problem.

    I’m guessing it could be that the embed has the controls below the video, rather than overlaying on top of the video.

    How can I fix this?

    A link with a example would be nice but I guess you are right, its because some providers have the controlls below the video.

    You could tweak the aspect ratio for all videos to try to remove the black bars.

    Add this to your CSS:

    .arve-embed-container {
    	padding-bottom: 56.25% !important; /* <- experiment with this value, set it lower */
    }

    But this will affect all videos and therefor the most providers like youtube will probably end up having black bars in top and bottom then.

    Nico,

    Thanks I will give it a try.

    I will implement individual aspect rations per provider next versions. I already tested it with the Dailymotion playlist (needs a big space for the video bar at the bottom)

    If you find the right percentage values for the providers you want to use please let me know. But only for 19:9 videos not 4:3.
