Scaling

The following algorithm is used for calculating the size of the Player:

  1. By default, the Player is as big as the composition height, defined by the compositionHeight and compositionWidth props.
  2. If height and width is defined using the style property, the player will assume the dimensions you have passed.
  3. If a height is passed using the style property, the player will assume that height, and calculate the width based on the aspect ratio of the video.
  4. If width is passed using the style property, the player will assume that width and calculate the height based on the aspect ration of the video.

Full width​

By setting the following style:

tsx
style={{ width: "100%" }}
tsx
style={{ width: "100%" }}

The video will scale to the full width of the parent container, while the height will be calculated based on the aspect ratio of the video.

Fitting to a container​

You can use

tsx
style={{ width: "100%", height: "100%" }}
tsx
style={{ width: "100%", height: "100%" }}

to make the <Player /> fit the whole container. Note that if the player size does not match the video aspect ratio, the video gets scaled down and centered in the player.
