Is there a way to display portrait orientation youtube videos in a portrait shaped pop-up on a phone? I have tried different width x height values but the pop-up is always landscape. When I view the raw youtube video on iphone it fills the screen in portrait orientation

MediaBox is currently designed to display videos only in landscape mode, as this is the most common format, and there have been no requests until now to add support for a portrait display.

I will look into adding support for portrait video display in the next MediaBox update.

Just because you're not paranoid doesn't mean everybody isn't out to get you.

Thanks Ryan,

I have found a workaround for now - visitors on mobile devices can tap the full screen icon which will load a portrait video in portrait orientation.
