Hello, I have a black bar above a video. This video on YouTube is perfect but when I start play on the website the bar appears. How to solve this?

Hello Vink,
Thanks for writing in! There are black bars because you have used the Video element incorrectly. You used it is as a video player while you have inserted a Youtube link. Please be informed that Video Player more is only possible when you have uploaded the video from your Media Gallery. Since you have hosted your Video on Youtube, you will have to use it as Embed mode and then insert the embed code from Youtube.

Thanks but also when I do that (embedding) there is a black bar above the movie after hitting the play button.
In the original movie on YouTube there are no bars.

Hey Jeroen,
The black bar issue is because of your custom CSS. Please remove it.
If you wish to continue using the code, you need to consult with a developer so s/he could fix the custom code or make it not conflict with the Video element.
Please remove customizations next time before posting an issue. That is even if the code was taken here in the forum. Codes provided here are merely samples or guides to help users get started with CSS.
Hope that helps.
Thanks! Solved!
Glad we could help,
Cheers!
