Video
Simply embed the HTML required to render the desired video. If the video has an HTTPS option (such as YouTube's) choose that option when generating the embed code.
To make the video dimensions responsive wrap the embed code with a div that has a class of video-container. Then it will show nicely on any device.
< div class="center video-container">....< /div>
(remove space before div)
