Need help on embedded video dynamic size

[Leo]

I want to have the video player page I have get the frame size from the video clip so if I have multiple showreels at different frame size and apsect ratio they will diplay correctly.

The PHP code on the video player page is;

PHP Code:

<?php 
              if ((isset($tb)) && (isset($id)) && (isset($quality))) {
                 
                if ($tb == 'showreel')    { $tabla = 'tbshowreel' ; }
                if ($tb == 'pastproject') { $tabla = 'tbpastproduction' ; }
                
                if ($quality == 'bb') { 
                  $campo = 'broadband'; 
                  $size = "width='320' height='240'";
                }
                
                if ($quality == 'du') { 
                    $campo = 'dialup';
                    $size = "width='176' height='144'";                    
                }
                
                $result = db_query("SELECT * FROM $tabla WHERE id=$id");
                $filasV = mysql_fetch_array($result);
                
                $videofile='../videos/'.$filasV[$campo];
              
              }
            
            ?>

<?php 
                         // Windows Media Player
                        if ($filasV['id_media']==2) { ?>

                          </object>
                        
                        <?php }  ?>

I took out the BB Broadband fixed size as deleted the whole varible and Windows Media Player resizes fine, just seems the Quicktime then is really small like 30x50 pixels and does not re-size the clip properties dynamic. If someone knows what I am doing wrong or the correct tag as i think the code for the Quicktime might be causing the probelm.

If you could let me know that would be great thanks,

Leo

Its unfortunate to see that no one has responded to this post yet. It is also unfortunate that this is not my area of expertise. Sorry old friend. – If you still need help with it, I will ask around.
