I am new to all of this and can't figure out how to resize the flash player I use for my home media server when the window is resized or orientation changes. I am basing the player size on the size of the viewport. I have searched and tried various versions but they don't work which is most likely due to my lack of knowledge. Most of the code below was already done, I have commented what I added here for reference.
Link to a sample
viewport.js (added by me)
var width = $(window).width();
var height = $(window).height();

<script type="text/javascript">
jwplayer('player').setup({
'flashplayer': 'scripts/player.swf',
'file': '[File.FlashLink]',
'autostart': 'true',

'provider': 'scripts/jrmediaprovider.swf',

'width': width - 5,
'height': height - 5

});
jwplayer('player').onComplete(
function(event) {
try {
window.Gizmo.onComplete();
} catch (err) { }
}
);
</script>

Just bind to the window
object on the resize
and orientationChange
events and use the JW Player
resize
method after getting the new width and height.
Something like this.
$(window).on('resize orientationChange', function(event) {
var width = $(window).width();
var height = $(window).height();
jwplayer('player').resize(width, height);
});
