  Hi, Is there a way to make a video I have on my .com blog appear the same size on my self hosted blog? Not sure what I’m doing wrong.

  video on .com: http://jamesmurphyinthemedia.wordpress.com/2011/12/09/top-pre-race-running-tips/

  same video on my self hosted blog appears smaller (I put a border around it to make it look proportional): http://www.sleepwellbeforeyourrace.com/top-running-tips-video/

  Thanks for your help!
  Emma

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

  I believe the videos resize in accord with maximum displayed image width defined by the theme. As you are using two different themes perhaps this could explain the sizing difference.

  Thanks! I’ll look at that and see if there is a way for me to change the maximum displayed image.
