Video preview always opens in 16:9 aspect ratio #577

Description

When I open a video in the Teldrive web UI, the player seems to use 16:9 by default.

This works fine for normal widescreen videos, but videos with a different shape, such as vertical phone videos or older 4:3 videos, do not look right when first opened. I have to manually change the aspect ratio from the player settings every time.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open Teldrive web UI.
  2. Open a video that is not 16:9, for example a vertical video.
  3. Check how the video is displayed.

Actual behavior

The video opens with a 16:9 aspect ratio by default.

Expected behavior

The video should open using its normal/default aspect ratio, so vertical or non-widescreen videos display correctly without needing to change the setting manually.

Why this matters

Many videos from phones are vertical or have different aspect ratios. Having 16:9 forced by default makes those videos inconvenient to watch in the web UI.
