Video resizing not working after code changes

Sun, 05/11/2008 - 14:07 — jerauf

I've been using Flowplayer for while. And I want to change the presentation. So I've made a couple of changes to the code:

1. It now autoplays.
2. I removed the preview image.
3. It is displayed within an iframe.

These are the three changes I've made. And now the resizing function isn't work. My users are going to scream without the full screen mode.

Any ideas?

embed code

api asked you about the code that embeds the player but it's not visible. You say:

Here is the code that I'm using: [BLANK]

so it's hard to help based on that.

I pasted it. It didn't show up. I tried again and it didn't show up.

How do you paste object code into this forum?

look for compose tips

here

so you need to replace all < and > characters with &lt; and &gt; respectively.

Thanks for the help.

Here is the code:

<param name="movie" value="player/GoboPlayer.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="scale" value="noScale" />
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
<param name="flashvars" value="config={ autoPlay: 'false', splashImageFile: 'sixpence_sundayADM.jpg', scaleSplash: 'true', videoFile: 'video/sixpence_sundayADM.flv', initialScale: 'fit' }" />
</object>

allowFullScreen option

Like api says you need to add allowFullScreen option:

<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" />

but I recommend you use flashembed.js because this is automatically set for you
and you don't have to worry about browser issues so much.

It still didn't work with

It still didn't work with the parameter included.

The problem with flashembed.js is that I can't make this player dynamic. It's supposed to pull the file names from a database. That's why the object works better.

what browser are you using?

what browser are you using? does this behaviour exist on every browser? have you tried (just tried) with flashembed whether it has the same thing? do you have a live page that I could check?

Hi - I've tried in Firefox (Mac/PC), IE 6, IE 7, and Safari...getting the same problem every time.

Here is an example link:

I couldn't get it to work with flashembed either.

I'd appreciate any suggestions you have for solving this...

Could you post the code that embeds the player? It needs to have the allowFullScreen option.

The reason that I'm using this is that I want an embed option and other methods don't seem to allow that. If I'm wrong, advice is welcome!

BUT - the full screen thing is holding up my launch. Help!
