Hi 🙂

I’m stuck and I would like some help, if you could be so kind.

I took a default FLVPlayback skin, and customized the look of the thing. New buttons etc, works all fine.  
But I changed the height of the control bar (the bottom bar with all the buttons/controls) was too thick, so I made it smaller. This works fine. It’s just a graphical change.

But the player itself doesn’t “know” that the controlbar is made smaller, so now there is a gap between the video and the controlbar.

I just can’t seem to find the place to edit the height of the video, which I need to fix so it always touches the controlbar.

Is this possible? Or should I just create my own player?

Thanks in advance
