Hi all and welcome to TheWoodHaven2 brought into the 21st Century, kicking and screaming! We all have Alasdair to thank for the vast bulk of the heavy lifting to get us here, no more so than me because he's taken away a huge burden of responsibility from my shoulders and brought us to this new shiny home, with all your previous content (hopefully) still intact! Please peruse and feed back. There is still plenty to do, like changing the colour scheme, adding the banner graphic, tweaking the odd setting here and there so I have added a new thread in the 'Technical Issues, Bugs and Feature Requests' forum for you to add any issues you find, any missing settings or just anything you'd like to see added/removed from the feature set that Xenforo offers. We will get to everything over the coming weeks so please be patient, but add anything at all to the thread I mention above and we promise to get to them over the next few days/weeks/months. In the meantime, please enjoy!
White space after Youtube clips

I don’t view YouTube videos in a browser, I use the YouTube app. I’m assuming though you’re using a desktop, if so try using a different browser. Firefox works fine on the Mac.
I was told many years ago that some websites simply don’t comply with accepted standards so it’s worth having at least two browsers on hand in case you experience unexpected web page behaviour. I rarely use anything other than Safari but I do have a couple of others just in case.

I don’t know what you mean by ‘white space after clips’, got an example?

Safari does indeed have smaller previews, id imagine its to do with how it embeds the youtube link.

I see the same as you but mine is Safari and Chrome, so it's a Safari thing.

I'm finding more and more that browsers are gradually changing their interpretation of websites (or verse visa) and behaving differently on different sites to the extent that I now run two browsers and choose which I use according to the website.
Also the same website will be have differently on a mobile to a laptop even with the same browser
Its a pain
It was rammed into me in the seventies at university the importance of ensuring software portability between platforms. Seems to have gone right out of the window these days.

In fairness Bob, how many platforms were there back in ye olden days compared to now... :eusa-whistle:
I’m not seeing any problem on an iPad running the latest iPadOS.
You don’t need to watch the video in the web page. I don’t, I just click on YouTube and it opens the video in the app. Maybe if you open the video in a new page?

It does not matter. The principle is still valid, code should not rely on special features or quirks of platform hardware or operating system.
About the only relaxation that could perhaps be allowed these days is that the hardware and OS supported could be the last few generations. Not back to beginning of time.
