Hi

I've got a couple of queries which I can't find in the forums.

The first is that there is a black strip across the top and along the left of the preview image. Otherwise the video plays fine. (See attached image).

The second is that the gallery statistics show viewings for 8 different sizes:

<table><tbody><tr><td align="right">Thumb: </td><td align="left">21 </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right">Small: </td><td align="left">33 </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right">Medium: </td><td align="left">19 </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right">Large: </td><td align="left">7 </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right">XLarge: </td><td align="left">11 </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right">X2Large: </td><td align="left">4 </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right">320: </td><td align="left">24 </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right">Original: </td><td align="left">24 </td></tr></tbody></table>
The video can only be seen in 1 size. Plus there's the thumbnail and I guess a preview image. What are the others?

Regards
Nick

Here's the image that should have been attached. 'Preview' doesn't show the attached image and 'Edit' doesn't allow removing or changing the attached image...

Nick, There are in fact multiple display sizes for the preview. That is where the extra sizes are coming from. The sizes are displayed depending on the browser size that your visitors are using. I am using dual 24" monitors so the size displayed would be different than say my 15" mac book pros monitor.

The black strip can because the video play size does not match the preview image size. So we fill the space? You did not include a link so I cannot check. But that is most likely what is happening.
