Engineers are currently investigating the issue.
Description
-
If you attach a media comment in the submission comment area, and the video was originally recorded on a phone in portrait mode the videos height does not scale beyond a certain point which results in most of the video being out of view in the iframe it loads in.
-
The media player buttons also are affected as they appear at the bottom of the video which is outside of view.
-
Expected Behavior
-
The video should be scaled down appropriately to fit the size of the frame it loads in inside of speedgrader.
Workaround
No workaround exists at this time.
Steps to Reproduce
-
Prereq: An assignment, a video that was recorded with a phone in portrait mode(gratuitous in height.)
-
As a student, submit to the assignment, and leave a media attachment as a submission comment.
-
In the speedgrader, click the video, and see that only the top part of the video is visible.
