It's fun!
I learned a new trick that's going to save hours.
I meant to say "seconds" just now but that exaggeration came out.
If I take the screen with the video and shrink it until the video shrinks too, then when I pick up the code the YouTube numbers for the video dimensions are changed also. They're changed to YouTube standards. Just below what I need for Blogger.
I prefer width = 500 but I get width = 427.
I can live with that.
All along I've been changing the width to 525 to fit into Blogger space. Then later to 500. And I had to recalculate the height depending on the upload to YouTube and that changes all over the place depending on the original form, such a cell phone held in landscape or portrait. That's a lot of recalculating and a lot of remembering. Opening Photoshop, creating a new image then changing the width so that Photoshop changes the height, I read it, then enter the new numbers. Some are standardized and others are not.
No more of that.
It's just one more little hack. That saves a bit of trouble.
