Steps to reproduce

  1. Where are you starting? What can you see?

Gil sent a screencap video, probably from Android. I viewed it with 'large thumbnails' (i.e. the old behaviour before tiny thumbnails were added) configured.

Outcome

What did you expect?

With 'large thumbnails' enabled, the video thumbnail and embedded video tag should be resized to fit within an 800x600px bounding box.

What happened instead?

Instead, the vertical bounding doesn't seem to have applied at all, resulting in a 800px wide but 1280px(?) high massive video thumbnail which is so big you can't view the whole video at a time.

This continues to be a real mess:

This is actually not a regression

I'm pretty sure it is a regression - using riots.im to pop back a year to 1.7.24 looked like this:

Now it looks like this:

(I'm not saying we should go back to the crappy small video thumbnails from the past though - just apply the same width/height constraints to vid thumbs as image thumbs).
