SWFObject is a small Javascript file used for embedding Adobe Flash content. The script can detect the Flash plug-in in all major web browsers (on Mac and PC) and is designed to make embedding Flash movies as easy as possible. It is also very search engine friendly, degrades gracefully, can be used in valid HTML and XHTML 1.0 documents*, and is forward compatible, so it should work for years to come.

mmm there are a few lines of code from memory that need changing to alter the movie size.

 

additionally i'd say don't make the movie bigger on screen than it is in the converted file, it WILL go all jaggy.

 

what did you convert from and what application/programme did you use to convert. i did a lot of work on converting from DVD .vob files recently and can point you to some good articles and software for getting video ready to stream and embed in a page.
