We're experiencing a new issue with our player. It loads in the appropriate position, but after a few videos play, the entire player jumps about 50px higher on the page, causing overlap issues with the site header. 

 

See http://www.orsinistudio.com/new-reel/. Notice how the page loads, then click on the last video in the player to see the position change.

 

How can I fix the position?

Hi orsini,

 

I just took a look at your page and didn't notice the player moving at all.

 

What browser/OS are you trying on and having this issue?

 

Thanks!

Hi Brandon -

 

It is happening in Chrome, Firefox, Opera and Safari. It only happens at the later videos in the track. Here are 2 screenshots that show the player at page load and after it jumps mid-video:

Thanks for looking into it.

Hi Orsini,

 

I do not see this issue in Windows, so I have asked one of our developers to look into the issue on a Mac machine.

 

Thanks for your patience!

Hi Orsini,

 

I see the "jumping" behavior and from what I can tell it's caused by TubePress trying to scroll the browser so the playing video is visible. That behavior works well enough in most websites/themes, but it's not universal and I think your theme doesn't like TubePress trying to scroll the page.

 

If you are interested in turning off the scrolling behavior entirely, you can replace the contents of wp-content/plugins/tubepress_pro_3_1_6/src/main/web/players/normal/normal.js with this code. TubePress 4.0.0 brings the ability to "theme" this change, but for now this is the only way to turn off the scrolling.

 

Please let us know what you think. Thanks

Thanks for the code fix, this seems to have corrected the problem.
