I have this problem too.

Unfortunately, this change basically reverts the change from #5773 which fixes #6726 and #1102.
With this change, if you set transform: scale(1.5) for example, the mouse tooltip positions don't align properly.
We'd love to get #7248 fixed but we wouldn't want it to break other usecases.

@gkatsev - I can repro the alignment issues with 7.9.3, however it looks like the fix/reversal could be applied in current versions. I did some quick tests with v7.21.4 and v8.3.0 (patch applied) and transform: scale(1.5) and do not see the alignment issues.

@mister-ben, @gkatsev imho this is still needed.

@phloxic to help me understand, is the transform: scale(1.5) applied to the whole player?

.video-js {
  transform: scale(1.5);
}

@amtins, thanks for insisting. Indeed I applied the scale to the tooltip instead of the container, duh. It did not help that with video.js in 9.3 I saw misaligned tooltips when scaling them. These do not appear in more recent versions, "fix" or no "fix".
So, yes, something is needed when the container is transformed, but also something is needed to avoid the tooltip sticking out on the right side, the same way as on the left side. This backout change helps with symmetric behaviour, but apparently brings back problem with transformed containers.
As an aside: When the container is scaled, the tooltip(s) may stick out both sides.
