Hello,

I’ve embedded a Vimeo video onto my Miro board, however Miro will not allow me to place the video within a frame. Whenever I try, the action is immediately undone automatically. This is an issue because we will use Present Mode to facilitate a interview with a potential client – and if the video cannot live on a frame, then we’ll have to exit and then re-enter Present Mode, which is cumbersome.

For some reason, Miro *does* let me place a YouTube embedded video onto a frame, but my company does not yet have a YouTube account and that is a whole other thing.

For both Vimeo and YouTube embeds, Miro does not allow me to “resize” the video on the board, which is another problem.

Is there a solution to placing a Vimeo embedded video within a frame, and resizing an embedded video to better fit in the context of the board?

Thank you!

Hi ​@pwil, thanks for reaching out!

Thanks for the detailed explanation — very helpful! I just tested this on my end and was able to successfully embed a Vimeo video and place it inside a frame. It stayed in the frame during editing and in Presentation Mode, so it sounds like what you're experiencing might be a bug or something specific to your setup.

Could you please share a short screen recording showing what happens when you try to drag the Vimeo embed into the frame? That will help us better understand and investigate the issue further.

 

As for resizing: you're right, embedded videos (both Vimeo and YouTube) currently don’t support manual resizing on the board. I’ll go ahead and tag this as feedback for the team, but feel free to add a post in the Wish List as well if you’d like to see this functionality improved.

Looking forward to your recording!
