The player doesnt overlap and has the right aspect ration and height. This is the behavior of version 3.5.6 and below.

The player completely pushes all othe elements out of the area and overlaps because the aspect ration and height are wrong. This is the behavior of version 3.5.7 to 3.5.10.

Thanks. I had noticed this myself locally but couldn't trace the cause. Your info version allowed me to track it down to this:
https://github.com/sampotts/plyr/pull/1679/files#diff-5e4f0b0fceaec73161f6a713ede69511L19
I'll try and get a new version out ASAP with the fix 馃憤
I am glad i was able to help you! And wow that was a pretty fast bug diagnosis! 馃憤
This should be resolved in the latest version 馃憤
The issue is still there in 3.6.1
Codepen
I found out how to fix it: https://github.com/sampotts/plyr/blob/ef85cb6195dc07627bd4fd357723c6ee96033ed9/src/sass/base.scss#L15
Removing this line or using height: unset; solves the problem!
You can try this out on the codepen mentioned above. Just add
.plyr
{
height: unset;
}
into the css section and the aspect ratio goes back to normal
@SnGmng Doesn't seem to work for me. Will this be fixed in plyr?
Getting this issue too on 3.6.2 and it seems to be a height: 100% issue. See image below.

I had to force it to height: auto !important; for the ratio to be normal and have the regular aspect of older versions.
