Remove black border around player

Posted: Mar 17, 2010

Hi,

I am having a black border appearing around my player although there is no black border in the original video.

The video is located here:

www.talk-hamburg.de/indexvideo.php

The source video is 450 x 360. When I adjust the size of the player it seems to leave a black border on the top and on the left edges, no matter what the size.

The code I am using is this (this is the only type of coding that seems to work for me with flowplayer - I am a beginner at coding but I could manage to add an additonal parameter):


<object id="flowplayer" width="440" height="350" data="http://www.talk-hamburg.de/flowplayer/flowplayer-3.1.5.swf"  
    type="application/x-shockwave-flash"> 
     
    <param name="movie" value="http://www.talk-hamburg.de/flowplayer/flowplayer-3.1.5.swf" />  
    <param name="allowfullscreen" value="false" /> 
    <param name="border" value="none" />
     <param name="outline" value="none" />
     
    <param name="flashvars"  
        value='config={"clip":"http://www.talk-hamburg.de/Video/00_Intro_Trailer/01_Talk_Hamburg_Juicebox_Trailer.mov"}' > 
</object>



Very grateful for any help you can give me. 

Cheers,

Steve

Hi,

still having difficulty with this one.

I use the object embed method as listed on the Flowplayer embedding options.

This means I configure parameters using flashvars. I have tried bgcolour #ffffff but it does not seem to change the black border.

Any other ideas?

Thanks,

Steve

      <param name="allowfullscreen" value="false" /> 
      <param name="bgcolor" value="#ffffff" /> 
      <param name="flashvars" value='config={"clip":{"url":"http://www.talk-hamburg.de/Video/00_Intro_Trailer/01_Talk_Hamburg_Juicebox_Trailer.mov","autoPlay":true}}' />

I see no black border on www.talk-hamburg.de/indexvideo.php

I see a slight letter box effect on right right side of the videos at:

http://www.talk-hamburg.de/english/

and

http://www.talk-hamburg.de/deutsch/

That's your content causing that. You can try the scale function but if that black bar is in the video, you won't get rid of it.

In fact, I just went directly to one of the quicktime files and see black in the right side of the video along with a 2 pixel or so border. Your content needs some fixin'

Thanks Guys,

You are right. It must the content. Something to do with the export procedure from Avid.

Please consider this thread closed.

Thanks,

Steve
