The only way to fix this at the moment without dev work is to tweak the
embed code manually in Mahara with a height that would work. e.g.

Instead of
<iframe src="https://media.xjtlu.edu.cn/player?autostart=n&fullscreen=y&width=0&height=0&videoId=5656&quality=lo&captions=n&chapterId=0"; frameborder="0" scrolling="no" style="position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Recommended
<iframe width="500" height="400" src="http://media.xjtlu.edu.cn/player?autostart=n&fullscreen=y&width=0&height=0&videoId=5656&quality=lo&captions=n&chapterId=0"; frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Two ways going forward:

1. Your platform changes its code to generate height and width options
that are more aligned to what other social media platforms do.

2. Mahara change to investigate: If the iframe width and height are not
working, be able to override them by entering values into the width and
height fields that we have rather than ignoring those fields.

Title:
  Embedded video with height of "100%" only shows half

Status in Mahara:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  https://mahara.org/interaction/forum/topic.php?id=7794

  The video has a height of 100% but only shows half. When I add a px
  height, I get the full video. Does the block not recognize percentages
  correctly?

  <iframe
  src="https://media.xjtlu.edu.cn/player?autostart=n&fullscreen=y&width=0&height=0&videoId=5656&quality=lo&captions=n&chapterId=0";
  frameborder="0" scrolling="no"
  style="position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;"
  allowfullscreen></iframe>
