Embedding a Video in a Post
I have a video embedded in one of my posts and it looks the perfect size. However, when I do a preview, it is huge (maybe becasue this particular post doesn't have a sidebar?).
There are no 'corners' to grab it and resize it. Any suggestions?

Good question, Mary Ann. It seems that videos are automatically embedded at whatever size they want to be, or the article's content width. I'll check out the answers below as well.
Videos can't be resized by grabbing the corners. To make sure you have it the right size for desktop and mobile phones, I place the code here first: http://embedresponsively.com. Then take the new code you obtain and embed that in your post.
It then comes up with the right size for your readers.
I hope that helps.

Thanks Yvette. I did try that in Text mode but it moved the video and the new code showed up in visual. Not sure what I might have done wrong.
