Frequently Asked Questions on Creating a Responsive Video Header with Bootstrap
How can I make my video header responsive in Bootstrap?
To make your video header responsive in Bootstrap, you need to use the Bootstrap’s built-in class .embed-responsive and .embed-responsive-item. Wrap your video in a div and apply these classes. The .embed-responsive class will make the div responsive, and the .embed-responsive-item class will make the video within the div responsive. Here’s a simple example:<div class="embed-responsive embed-responsive-16by9">
<iframe class="embed-responsive-item" src="your-video-link"></iframe></div>
Replace “your-video-link” with the actual link of your video. The 16by9 can be replaced with 4by3 depending on the aspect ratio of your video.
