Learn how to use the twitter:player:height meta tag to improve your site.

Specifies the height of the iframe containing a video or audio player on Twitter cards.

Code Examples

<meta name="twitter:player:height" content="320" />
Sets the player height to 320 pixels, suitable for standard mobile screens.
<meta name="twitter:player:height" content="480" />
Defines the player height as 480 pixels, which works well for larger screens or landscape videos.
<meta name="twitter:player:height" content="100%" />
Using percentage values can lead to incorrect display since Twitter expects a fixed pixel value.
<meta name="twitter:player:height" content="6000" />
Excessively high values can lead to display issues, ensuring the value is practical and fits most screens.

Recommendations

  • Match Player Dimensions
    Ensure the height matches the actual height of your player to prevent layout issues.
  • Use with twitter:player:width
    Always use in conjunction with twitter:player:width to define the correct aspect ratio.
