    Hey guys!
    Just updated my Enfold installation to the latest version and re-launching my site.
    Ran into this:

    When I embed a video from Youtube (add media -> insert from URL) as I have always done, it looks fine in the WP editor, but in the actual post it is stretched to a square and distorted.
    I do not use any custom CSS or a lot of fancy plugins, and the code in the editor is simply
    [embed]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whatevervideo[/embed]
    but it results in this:
    https://wp.me/pa1V6M-2D

    Has the way Enfold is handling external videos changed or am I missing something?

    Update:
    LOL, sorry, my Enfold skillz were a bit rusty.

    Do not use WP “add media” – > “insert from url”

    Use “Insert theme shortcode” -> “Media Elements” -> “Video”, which offers choices for aspect ratio etc…

    Solved.
