Size parameters not working with Vimeo was created by Railer
I'm trying to setup a Vimeo video to play in a custom module and I can't get the custom size to work. When I put in the tag a message appears in the video that says,"Sorry, this video does not exist".
Here is the code snippet I'm using:
{vimeo}my_video_id|275|206{/vimeo}
When I remove the width and height parameters, the video plays but at the full size — too wide for my column.
I noticed that Vimeo now has new embed code that is compatible with iPhone, iPod, and iPads. Is this code change negating AllVideos formatting capability?
Does anyone have any ideas how I can get this to work?
Site is on Joomla 1.5.22
AllVideos Plugin is: 3.3
Thanks,
railer

It would be good to have an answer to this, but in the meantime, I'm using the new
Custom Code module
instead.

Thanks for your reply Katia. I appreciate it.
Unfortunately, since this is a live site, I cannot leave the malfunctioning module up for public view. Can you suggest a good way that I can publish it and still hide it from view?
Basically, when published, it just shows a black rectangle (400 x 300 px) with the "Play" triangle button in the middle with a diagonal line across it and the message mentioned in my original post centered.
Any ideas?

Note that the new Vimeo code displays the video in an iFrame. Regardless, for the AllVideos plugin snippet I was just using the video id number — which did work when I removed the width and height parameters from the snippet.
