<p>The best WordPress plugin for videos? Supports close to everything you can imagine, still keeping it easy & simple.</p>
<p>It is very likely the one and only plugin you will ever need to handle video embeds on your WordPress site(s). It goes far beyond just making your videos responsive!</p>

<h3>Features</h3>
<h4>Classic Editor</h4>
<ul>
<li>Adds “Embed Video” button to help you create very powerful <code>[arve]</code> shortcodes.</li>
<li>Takes over WordPress embeds with URLs on their own line and <code>[embed]</code> shortcodes.</li>
<li>Can take over WP’s default video file embeds.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Block Editor (Gutenberg)</h4>
<ul>
<li>Works with Embed, YouTube, Vimeo, Shortcode … blocks.</li>

</ul>
<h4>Elementor</h4>
<ul>
<li>Provides a widget for the entire feature set of ARVE inside Elementor</li>
</ul>
<h4>All</h4>
<ul>
<li>Makes your video embeds <a href="https://nextgenthemes.com/privacy-enhanced-and-safer-iframes-in-arve-10-0/" rel="nofollow ugc">more secure and enhances visitors privacy</a>.</li>
<li>Magically makes videos responsive you already embedded with WordPress default features.</li>
<li>SEO friendly, lets you specify title, description, upload date to provide search engines with the schema.org data they like to have for better indexing. Pro can autofill this for you.</li>
<li>No ‘lock in’ if you do not use the ARVE Gutenberg Block or <code>[arve]</code> shortcodes.</li>
<li>Supports <a href="https://nextgenthemes.com/plugins/arve-pro/#provider-support" rel="nofollow ugc">almost every video host</a> that supports iframe embed codes.</li>

<li>Responsive embeds with CSS, much better than with JavaScript.</li>
<li>Tries to be as unobtrusive as possible, sets ‘hide brand’ variables if supported, disables related videos from other channels at the end … to help keep people on your site rather then going to YouTube or keep watching videos.</li>
<li>Limited Autoplay (Mobile browsers usually prevent autoplay or allow it only muted. ARVE will automatically mute it but browser settings can still prevent it, even on Desktop)</li>

<h3>Reviews</h3>
<h4>★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great plugin, great support</h4>
<p>I’ve been using this plugin (free version and pro add-on) for a few years now. It works very well for my purposes (mainly lazyload and lightbox functionality). Recently I had a support issue with the new version which required some intervention – it was a conflict with my theme. Nico, the developer, went above and beyond to get a fix promptly sorted out for me. Thank you Nico.</p>
<h4>★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The best there is – I have tried many…</h4>
<p>Have downloaded and paid for at least 4 other video players that use lightbox. Each one has major flaws. This products works perfectly. If you use the OnSite Editor, then just copy the short code and it works great.</p>
<p>[arve url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z7g8-GxLTSc” /]</p>
<p>For speed, the product uses the thumbnails from the server. So many of the other products do NOT do this and it slows the page rendering. This product should appear first on the WordPress search. Spent 3 days of my life wasted on other products, only to delete each one. <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/advanced-responsive-video-embedder/reviews/?filter=5" rel="ugc">review by jodani</a></p>
<h4>★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Finally something that works</h4>
<p>So I have a responsive theme but on pages with you tube videos it wasn’t making the you tube videos fit in the mobile screen. I have spent the last hour trying many plugins and researching on google and finally I installed this. And I didn’t have to update any settings or anything just refreshed a post with videos and all the sudden it is beautiful and responsive on my mobile phone!!!!!! THANK YOU!!!! <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/advanced-responsive-video-embedder/reviews/?filter=5" rel="ugc">review by happyecho</a></p>
<h4>★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Only Plug-in that worked</h4>
<p>I used a lot of high ranking plug-ins but they still broke my design. Downloaded this and worked right away. Thanks! <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/advanced-responsive-video-embedder/reviews/?filter=5" rel="ugc">review by crconnell89</a></p>
