Thumbnail sizes

    Hi, I’ve been using this plugin ever since I first saw it a while back, it’s a great solution for fast loading videos, thank you.

    I’m having some issues with thumbnail sizes though. I’m currently in the process of launching a newly updated client site which has several videos on various pages. Most of them are pulling in a maxresolution thumbnail image, typically 1280 x 720.

    However, 2 of them are pulling in mqresolution thumbs at 320 x 180px, despite the videos displaying on the page at twice those dimensions. I’ve uploaded a correctly sized (1280×720) custom thumb for one of these videos and set it as the default, but it continues to display at 320px which looks pretty bad.

    Is there anything I, or you, can do about this? This thread on stackoverflow seems relevant but I’m not that much of a coder: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34763547/youtube-maxresdefault-thumbnails

    I can’t share a URL right now as I’m literally in the middle of launching the new site, but will be able to soon if necessary.

    Hi Jaiji,

    Thanks for using the plugin. Do you have the URL of the page where these videos are not displaying correct please. Maybe I could take a look?

    As I say I’m in the middle of launching it, it’s on the server but needs some housework before I can open it up. I’ll share a URL ASAP. What’s the best way to get that to you privately?

    Could you share the video URLs please? The thumbnails are cached for a day and therefore if you have changed them they may not change straight away.

    As I say I can’t share it yet – we’re having issues getting social feeds connected so it’s not ready to be opened up until that’s fixed. Can I send it to you privately when it’s ready to view please? How can I best do that, I’m not seeing an option for that here?

    So, now it’s live it seems the resolution thing has fixed itself. Probably due to the caching as you say. Sorry to have troubled you.
