Re: width & height settings

Hi,

Here's the code after uploading the video:

------------------------------------------
body
object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0"
width=350
height=392
id=showmovie
align=middle
param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain"
param name="allowFullScreen" value="false"
param name="wmode" value="transparent"
param name="movie" value=" src here"
param name="quality" value="high"
embed src=" src here"
quality="high"
width=350
height=392
name=showmovie
align=middle
wmode="transparent"
allowScriptAccess="sameDomain"
allowFullScreen="false"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"

object
body
--------------------------------------------


I used the composition settings to change the height and width. The raw footage was shot with a Sony camera, so when I downloaded it to my computer the footage was something like 540 * 1080. The footage is of a person, so when I upload it to the database, the dimensions are distorted. A video that was originally 350 * 350 would appear extremely small on the browser. If I make a video that is 180 * 350....for some odd reason, the person on the video is stretched horizontally.
So I switched it around and tried 350 * 180....then it looks the same as the 350 * 350 video!
I'm going to use this video for a website...it's my final new media project.

Thank you so much for helping me!
