On embedded YouTube videos in news stories the frame/ scaling crops off the right 1/3 of the image for me. I'm using an Android phone and chrome.
This is what I mean:

It's the image with the hand on the car.

Why can't we embed videos in posts yet? The first time I asked for this was in 2009.

I have exactly the same on the Gran Turismo story, only half the video is in the frame. I'm using Chrome on Win10.

I've just seen the Mezger story is doing it as well: https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...

It looks like the entire frame is the width of a phone....which looks stupid on a widescreen PC monitor. At least on the PC i can scroll the video to see different bits of it. i can't on my mobile.

The same thing happens on my PC Chrome/Win10, and my Android/Chrome mobile.
