I am working with an HTML5 template that supports youtube video backgrounds in a DIV. When I scale the browser window to see how the responsivnes behaves, I notice that the videos crop left/right, top/bottom, depending on the aspect ratio of the DIV. For my purposes, I would need the videos only crop on the right and top only, so that the bottom left is always visible. As I am not a pro I have been doing a lot of trial and error on this, but cannot get it working. I actually need to have two classes available. One where the video scales from the bottom left and one where it scales from the top right corner. I don't quite understand if I need to create two new classes for "videobg" AND "youtube-background" respectively? That would be "videobg-bl, videobg-tr, youtube-background-bl, youtube-background-tr". Or is just one of those classes responsible for the scaling? This is the HTML snippet I use in the template: <div class="imageblock__content videobg col-lg-6 col-md-4 pos-right" data-overlay="0"> <div class="youtube-background" data-video-url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekthcIHDt3I"></div> <div class="background-image-holder"> <img alt="image" src="img/dancer-1A.png"> </div> </div> and these are the CSS classes for videobg and youtube-background: .videobg { background: #252525; position: relative; overflow: hidden; } .videobg .container, .videobg .background-image-holder { opacity: 0; transition: 0.3s linear; -webkit-transition: 0.3s linear; -moz-transition: 0.3s linear; } .videobg .background-image-holder { opacity: 0 !important; } .videobg.video-active .container { opacity: 1; } .videobg.video-active .loading-indicator { opacity: 0; visibility: hidden; } .videobg video { object-fit: cover; height: 100%; min-width: 100%; position: absolute; top: 0; z-index: 0 !important; left: 0; } @media all and (max-width: 1024px) { .videobg .background-image-holder, .videobg .container { opacity: 1 !important; } .videobg .loading-indicator { display: none; } .videobg video { display: none; } } .youtube-background { position: absolute; height: 100%; width: 100%; top: 0; z-index: 0 !important; } .youtube-background .mb_YTPBar { opacity: 0; height: 0; visibility: hidden; } @media all and (max-width: 1024px) { .youtube-background { display: none; } } Also, the template is using ytplayer.min.js for the youtube backgrounds. Unfortunately, the player shows branding watermarked elements during the first 2-3 seconds of the clip, that I have no idea how to get rid of. I also have all my clips on vimeo, so it would be so much more convenient to be able to use vimeo backgrounds instead. Is there a simple way to do this, without breaking the above CSS?

Hey, I have some problems with a javascript library (http://janne.aukia.com/zoomooz/) i'm using for my website (http://bram-de-leeuw.nl). The problem i'm having is with the zoom function, i added this function to the articles posted on the site but when i click on them it doesn't zoom and in the google chrome console it returns an error saying Uncaught TypeError: Object #<Object> has no method 'initialize' in the jquery.zoomooz.js:294 . But i just followed the examples i got with the library which work fine.. I don't know what to do or were to start fixing this. Another thing i would like to work is a scale function what will scale articles down, the oldest post are the smallest and the newer posts are normal size so there will be a sort of depth, i added the attachment as an example. The lines connecting the posts are connected to the category's of the posts, i don't know were to start here either so if you got any leeds please share! many thanks in advance!
