Hello There,
I have done some investigation and it turns out that the advanced controls in the featured video specially if you use the Video Post format were deactivated on purpose. To resolve your issue, this requires a template customization because it is designed on purposed for the theme. We would highly to suggest that you use a child theme. This allows you to make code changes that won’t be overwritten when an X update is released.
After the child theme is set up, please add the following code in your child theme’s functions.php file
// Enable Advanced Controls for the Featured Video
// =============================================================================
if ( ! function_exists( 'x_featured_video' ) ) :
function x_featured_video( $post_type = 'video' ) {
$entry_id = get_the_ID();
$stack = x_get_stack();
$aspect_ratio = get_post_meta( $entry_id, '_x_' . $post_type . '_aspect_ratio', true );
$m4v = get_post_meta( $entry_id, '_x_' . $post_type . '_m4v', true );
$ogv = get_post_meta( $entry_id, '_x_' . $post_type . '_ogv', true );
$embed = get_post_meta( $entry_id, '_x_' . $post_type . '_embed', true );
$fullwidth = ( in_array( 'x-full-width-active', get_body_class() ) ) ? true : false;
if ( $fullwidth ) {
$poster = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id( $entry_id ), 'entry-fullwidth', false );
} else {
$poster = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id( $entry_id ), 'entry', false );
}
if ( $embed != '' ) {
echo do_shortcode( '[x_video_embed type="' . $aspect_ratio . '" no_container="true" class="mvn"]' . stripslashes( htmlspecialchars_decode( $embed ) ) . '[/x_video_embed]' );
} else {
echo do_shortcode( '[x_video_player m4v="' . $m4v . '" ogv="' . $ogv . '" poster="' . $poster[0] . '" type="' . $aspect_ratio . '" advanced_controls="true" preload="metadata" hide_controls="false" autoplay="false" loop="false" muted="false" no_container="true" class="mao ni mvn"]' );
}
}
endif;
