Robin! Great question: I think Squarespace doesn't really play that game. It's kinda a one-time use situation, because they are trying to sell you the service. I recommend uploading content to YT & Vimeo for free, first and only use Squarespace if you have to!
Hi - I just had this issue today and found that previously uploaded videos (and images) can be deleted in the "Asset Library." On 7.1, this is the 5th option down on the config menu. Hope this helps even a year later. :)
Any chance you found a solution to removing those black bars/extra padding? Currently experiencing the same and cannot for the life of me figure it out.
Will this be available for those on 7.0? Also, if your videos are hosted on UA-cam behind a paywall, can a paying customer grab the link and share it? I’ve used Vimeo in the past for hosting my videos because I could use a setting that kept the videos from being shared. Thanks in advance for your insights!
I haven’t seen video pages on 7.0 yet! With youtube, yes, it’s easier to grab the link and share it. Vimeo is the best for this. There is another tool I just started using, if I like it, I’ll recommend it.
Essentially, unless you pay for their plan to host your videos, you CANNOT select your own video thumbnails when using external links like UA-cam and Vimeo. This means, you'll have an ugly video gallery. Another reason why Squarespace SUCKS!
Nice. Only 1.8k subscriber? Underrated channel. Hope you get 5k subscriber 😎
THANK YOU. You just made my weekend 💪🏽
Thank you for the video :) How would you remove videos to clear up space? I've deleted pages but the time limit is a being used.

Does this also allow you to add a video directly into a product page without using a UA-cam or Vimeo link as well? Or only on the Video pages?
Good question! Off the top of my head, not sure.
