So I just figured out how to embed a YouTube video in flash using an empty movie clip and this AS2 code.

```auto
this.createEmptyMovieClip("youtube_mc",this.getNextHighestDepth());
youtube_mc.loadMovie("http://www.youtube.com/v/6mOEU87SBTU&hl=en_US&fs=1&"); 

```

But my question is, how do I resize it and position it to where I want it in my flash piece. Right now it’s the normal 480x385 size and it shows up in the upper right hand corner. I would like for it to be the 320x265 size and position it other than the top right corner.

Any help would be great! Thanks!!!
