Typo3 7: Change fluid_styled_content textmedia video width

I want to change the default size of a textmedia video in the frontend. Right now if I upload a new video (format: vimeo), for some reason {column.dimensions.width} is 490 - is there a way to change this via typoscript? Where does that come from?

I'd be thankful for any hints!

This comes from the calculateMediaWidthsAndHeights function from the class GalleryProcessor in the system extension frontend. The width depends on some facts:

  • Maximum width of the media element (maxGalleryWidth)

    This property is set in TypoScript. The path: tt_content.textmedia.dataProcessing.20.maxGalleryWidth

  • Width for each media element. It is set inside the element. See the image below:

Media Adjustments, width of each element. In the calculation its name is equalMediaWidth

  • How many columns do you have. "Number of Columns" set to 2 in default.

The logic is like: you have a max size for your "gallery", because each textmedia element is a gallery of media elements. The function calculates how many elements you want to show in one row, caped with the max width of the element.

So you have two solution:

1) You try to adjust the TypoScript value for maxGalleryWidth and the Max Element Width

or

2) You make your own fluid template which one in case of 1 video renders it just the way you want.

fluid_styled_content is very flexible in this matter.
