My Blogger account is set to take images at 590px wide, I would like my embedded videos to match the size. Is there some way to change the embedded size. I tried changing the numbers in the info copied from the share link, but it does not re-size it.

Also, I don't see an option to view my video in hi-def only full screen (which looks terrible)

Cheers

I have had success by changing both sets of numbers in the embed code.

... width="425" height="240" ... width="425" height="240" ...

Adjust both sets of numbers. Keep in mind that the height would also need to be adjusted.

So I can take this

<object width="425" height="240">


<embed src="http://cdn.smugmug.com/ria/ShizVidz-2008120101.swf" flashvars="s=ZT0xJmk9NDgzNDA1MTkyJms9SnViWkMmYT01NTI5NTU4X05y SGdZJnU9YWx0ZXJlZGltYWdlcw==" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="240"></object>

and make it:

<object width="590" height="320">


<embed src="http://cdn.smugmug.com/ria/ShizVidz-2008120101.swf" flashvars="s=ZT0xJmk9NDgzNDA1MTkyJms9SnViWkMmYT01NTI5NTU4X05y SGdZJnU9YWx0ZXJlZGltYWdlcw==" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="590" height="320"></object>

I made a guess on the height so it may not be exactly proportional. My brain is not working at 100% this morning and doing the math is hard. :scratch

HD is not available for embed at this time. Sorry. We may add that in the future.

It is easy to miss, I have seen others miss it and that is why I mentioned it. Been there done that :-)

No need to cough. We are constantly adding new features and making improvements as the technology improves. :thumb
