Plugin settings / Video embed options

These options control how the plugin embeds the videos into the post content. Please note that these settings apply only if you embed videos using the plugin functionality. In case you made your WordPress theme compatible with the plugin these options won’t apply.

Please note that the embed options can also be modified for each individual video post by editing the post in WP admin.

The options can be found in WP admin plugin menu Videos, page Settings, tab Embed options.
