Movie Clips and sizes

Ok, so I’m working on a site that will host some videos, pictures, games, etc. I decided I was going to do something more exciting than just simply having an image show up, so I decided I’d go with a full overlay across my whole project, and have a little “video screen” expand out.

So far, I’m using this code:

function showPlayer(theWidth, theHeight) {
    toggleButton(false);
    theOverlay = attachMovie("gfxOverlay", "gfxOverlay", 1);
    thePlayer = attachMovie("mcPlayer", "mcPlayer", 2);
    gfxOverlay._width = Stage.width;
    gfxOverlay._height = Stage.height;
    mcPlayer._width = 0;
    mcPlayer._height = 0;
    theX = ((Stage.width/2)-(theWidth/2));
    theY = ((Stage.width/2)-(theHeight/2));
    mcPlayer._x = theX;
    mcPlayer._y = theY;
    new Tween(mcPlayer, "_width", Regular.easeOut, 0, theWidth, 2, true);
    new Tween(mcPlayer, "_height", Regular.easeOut, 0, theHeight, 2, true);
    mcPlayer.txtInfo.text = "Some text to display";
}

As you can tell by the last piece of the code…I’m just trying to display simple text now. But, is there a way I can expand the movieclip itself without stretching everything out inside of it? The way I have it right now the text is setup as 12 font, but once the movieclip is resized to what I want it to be (400x400 for what I’m doing ATM) it becomes about size 20…
