Hello,

I have installed AllVideos Plugin v2.5.3 (on Joomla 1.5.7) and I'm trying to play an FLV video that has a 16:9 aspect ratio. According to FLV Player (a standalone FLV Player) the dimensions are 464px (wide) by 260px (high).

This is the code I've used:

{flvremote}www.xdomain.com/myflv.flv{/flvremote}
{flvremote}www.xdomain.com/myflv.flv|464|260{/flvremote}
{flv}myflv{/flv}
{flv}myflv|464|260{/flv}

and none of them display the video correctly.

I have played the file in various players (VLC, FLV Player) and the ratio is fine.

Does anybody have any ideas?

Thanks.

I had this problem months ago and never came up with a solution. I just don't that the plugin supports 16:9 on FLV. I ended up re encoding and uploading my video as an .mov compressed with H264. It take a little longer to load but the quality is great.

Have a look, there are a few different version on the site

Thanks for the re-encoding suggestion.

I went looking for another plugin and found one called Moseasymedia which is able to handle 16:9 FLV files correctly.

Thanks just trying it now.
