JQuery Swiper slide height

Question

I am using JQuery Swiper. I essentially have a section where I set the height to the viewport height.

#portfolio {
  height: 100vh;
}

Within this section, I have a left side and a right side, which I set to 100%

#portfolio-left {
    background: #6bbea5 none repeat scroll 0 0;
    height: 100%;
}

#portfolio-right {
    height: 100%;
    padding: 0;
}

#portfolio-left will just hold a little text, while #portfolio-right will hold my slider.

So I have added my slider container, and the contents I want added to the slider. I then set it up

$(function() {

     var swiperH = new Swiper('.swiper-container-h', {
        pagination: '.swiper-pagination-h',
        paginationClickable: true
    });
    var swiperV = new Swiper('.swiper-container-v', {
        pagination: '.swiper-pagination-v',
        paginationClickable: true,
        direction: 'vertical',
        freeMode: true,
        autoHeight: true,
        grabCursor: true
    });
});

It will eventually be bi-directional hence the reason I have vertical and horizontal. I have added two slides vertically to demonstrate my issue. Essentially, the first slide has a lot of content, and it is not being given a dynamic height. I believe this has something to do with giving it 100% height on the portfolio-right, but not too sure. I have set up a JSFiddle to demonstrate.

How can I get the slides to have an auto height, whilst at the same time having the whole section 100vh?

This is an example of what I am after

Many thanks

It seems like JSFiddle is might be having a little trouble adapting to Swiper. But here is a fork of your fiddle. However, It works perfectly on XAMPP server and I moved it to a live site as well.

  $(function() {
     var swiperH = new Swiper('.swiper-container-h', {
     pagination: '.swiper-pagination-h',
     paginationClickable: true,
     });

     var swiperV = new Swiper('.swiper-container-v', {
     pagination: '.swiper-pagination-v',
     paginationClickable: true,
     direction: 'vertical',
     freeMode: true,
     autoHeight: true,
     grabCursor: true,
     slidesPerView: 'auto'        
  });
});  

Notice the addition of "slidesPerView: 'auto' "
