 * Hello,
 * I am helping a friend out with videos –
    [http://joshjordan.info/portfolio/breakthru-music-video/](http://joshjordan.info/portfolio/breakthru-music-video/)
 * The player works with the default WP player, but breaks in FF because of h264
   issue I presume…
 * The other players generate tiny thumbnails in the POST (full size) page.
 * is there a source of info for configuring ffmpeg or something for a fallback?
 * I don’t think it’s a big deal and it will *solve itself* but hey, why settle?
 * Cheers
 * Aaron

 * It seems like the video on that page has been placed inside the left column on
   the template page instead of in the much wider ‘content’ area. I don’t know how
   that theme works so I can’t give you any specific instructions. Try putting a
   bunch of text in the same section you put the `[KGVID]` shortcode in. It looks
   like the text would also be very skinny. If the WordPress default player isn’t
   skinny on that page, that sounds like a mistake.
 * Firefox can’t play H.264 videos except in Windows without using Flash. I can’t
   tell what the problem might be without seeing it in action. The Video.js player
   seems to work fine in Firefox.
 * FFMPEG is not a video player and has nothing to do with the problems you’re having.

 * You are right, I need to expand my understanding of the wordpress template/loop
   system to fix this (looking in the “edit themes” section of wp-admin is trial
   and error…
 * I have used ffmpeg for encoding, love the whole “datamoshing” thing where you
   edit keyframes to create glitches…
