H5P Interactive Video

Hi!

I tried using H5P to add some extra features to my video. The problem is that the video opens too large in my lesson: it's just an ordinary 1280x720 video and quality looks very bad when it's a size of my whole screen. Is there any way to make a box where the video is any smaller, or change the video size in the content creator?

I'm using Moodle core 3.8.2.

Best regards,

My understanding is that because H5P is an HTML5 object, it will expand to show as large as it can.
So, if you wanted to display the movie at a smaller size, maybe you could create a (hidden) table and embed it in there?

Cool, thanks for your response. I am a total noob so appreciate every input. Would you be so kind as to elaborate how would I do this.

Thanks

Sorry, it's not a technical answer.
I just meant using a table to constrain the width of an object - basic HTML.
These days people use
's of course.

CSS using a max-height and max-width would also achieve your goal and you would add this to the template. Somewhere in your theme template should be a place for custom CSS.
