Most videos use a 4:3 ratio, which the player displays fine.
But some videos are recorded in widescreen. Now my request is if you could add a checkbox(?) for widescreen mode.
The script would then adjust the player. And the size links (1x, 2x, fill, etc) would also apply when clicked.

i'm not sure, but i don't think it's actually possible, is it?
the youtube player is in 4:3 ratio, so i don't think we can adjust it to be widescreen..
it would really nice if it were possible, though.

You could resize the player in that ratio, right?

this would work great with high res videos. I was just thinking of this.

It could be possible, but it will require some work. I'll add your suggestion to my list, thanks

I don't know why, but i'm getting the 'max' setting as widescreen now:

Ok, it isn't necessary now: http://www.youtube.com/blog?entry=0i22UDAOfj8

This has been the feature that has required more work from me ;-)
