Create a vertical Player

Creating a vertical Player is just like creating any other Player from your Dailymotion Studio. The only difference lies in the Aspect Ratio parameter that needs to be set to either 9:16 or 3:4.

1. Log into your Dailymotion Studio, go in Embeds > Players
2. Click on Create player 
3. Name your Player in the Player name field
4. In Player interface > Aspect ratio, choose either 9:16 or 3:4 to fit your vertical videos
5. You can further customize the configuration with the other parameters available
   See more details about each parameter
6. Once done, click on Save

Your vertical Player is now ready to embed vertical videos!

The Player ID can be found above the Preview: it will be used in the integration code to carry the vertical format and custom parameters you just defined.

Embed vertical videos

Now that you have created a vertical Player, you can embed vertical videos easily using the Player ID:

1. Copy the embed code
   You can find the different embed codes at the top of the Player configuration page. Each of them already includes your Player ID.
   If you don't know which embed code to use, you can learn more about each embed method.
2. Add your video ID
   Add in the code the ID of the video you want to embed
   

   In these examples, xpiw2 is the Player ID and x84sh87 the video ID
   Replace them with your own IDs
