Automatic Video Enlargement to Fit Your Screen
Thanks to kronosposeidon's suggestion, we just made it so that depending on what size page width you currently have selected, the video will enlarge itself to fit.
Not all video embeds allow upsizing so we try to bypass them when we know not to try, but if you see any embeds that look like they're "trying" to be bigger but failing, let us know.
I like this new feature a lot.

Very nice, works great.
lucky760Thanks! Yeah, I'm lovin' it.
Finally! Why didn't anyone think of this before?
The only caveat is that if you have a video on the page when you change your size, the video won't change with the size, so you'll have to reload to make it fit.
youdiejoesweeeeet, all those HD videos I have posted are looking so much better! Quality idea indeed!
IssykittyLucky rocks!
Farhad2000This works way better then i thought it would, great job lucky.
One recommendation, is it possible to widen out the video summary? e.g. http://www.videosift.com/video/The-James-Miller-Shooting-in-Rafah-by-IDF
lucky760^Absolutely. Done.
I never knew there was a problem with that. Thanks for pointing it out, fh2k.
