Yup, that was causing videojs to appear. Thanks!

The movie is left-aligned with a huge padding on the right which makes the
Infobox too wide.

As I said, I suspect that the issue is the Infobox CSS, not the video
player, but unfortunately on my machines it still looks good.

in theory. In practice that seems to be about the Kaltura player but
not VideoJS? Ah, that page does not even provide a link to

Keeping documentation up-to-date: Not always the main focus it seems.

Probably also depends on whether you are logged in and if you have
enabled "New video player" under "Preferences > Beta features".

Probably also depends on whether your web browser (version) supports

I don't know what "is a terrible idea" in the image. Please be explicit
in what you expect and what happens instead so we don't have to guess.

[Wikitech-l] Video on Wikipedia

2020-05-23 Thread Strainu
Hi folks,

Is there a page where I can find a matrix or some other executive summary
of what players we're using on what browsers?

Also, how can one force the use of a certain player? I'm asking because
I've tried to push for more video to be used in Infoboxes just to see
examples of why that is a terrible idea [1]. Now, I strongly suspect that
the issue is the Infobox code rather than the player, but I'm not sure how
to debug it, since I see the videojs on all my browsers.
