[Xerte] youtube movie dimensions

I'm still stuck on youtube movie sizing. When I enter a youtube movie page
the movie is oversized like in the image below to the left. I want it to
display in the preview window as the image below on the right.

 

I'd appreciate it if someone could try these links below and tell me if the
youtube movie (usually page 7) displays properly in the small preview window
or opens right off the page as in the image below left. On all my machines
here it is right off the page.

version)

 

This just started a few days ago, up until then the page opened with the
movie in the preview window. I'm using the youtube older 'object' 'embed'
code. I've tried setting the xerte display mode from 'full screen' and 'full
window' to 'default', set text alignment to 'right' and tried removing the
variables off the end of the youtube URL, all to no effect.

 

If you play with the 'magnify' icon (click it three times) the movie will
resize back into the preview window, but that's too much to ask a user to
do. Is there a way I can initialize the movie size when the page loads or
somehow force the size (although it is set in the youtube embed code).

 

Thanks for any suggestions..am I missing something obvious?
