This is my version of x_movie that I've been working on. I don't know what happened to the original writer of this module so I decided to work on this module myself.

This module has additional features, one being the ability to stream divx movies from stage6 or your local server.

This module also gives you the ability to add the dimensions of the video while at the same time setting a default max size and width you want to display. The video will be automatically resized if it goes past the max width.

For those of you that embed video from you local server you will need to create the embedding code. You can find examples on any YouTube or Stage6 site. You only need everything that is contained in the tag. Everything else is not needed.

If you do an upgrade, please compare the x_movie and x_movie_mod tables with the tables in the sql file. If you don't see height and width in your table please add them. This is not necessary if you are doing a clean install)

Please post all comments about errors here so I can fix them.
