  Hi. I want to re-size the video “box” as it shows on a page – that is, so it doesn’t take up so much of the page displayed. Can you help me with this? I can see in CSS the size of the frame, just not sure how/which bit to change!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  The only video I saw on your site was on this page:

  Wharfedale Track

  Please let me know if you’re trying edit somewhere else. :)

  But the easiest way to change the size of VideoPress videos is actually to add the width attribute in your shortcode:

  VideoPress

  Without that width attribute, the video gets displayed at your theme’s content width by default. In your theme, that’s a pretty big 720 pixels. So try changing your video shortcode to this, to make it only 320 pixels wide:
