When using the multimedia
package with the beamer
class, you must specify the width and height of the movie like this:
\movie[width=8.0cm,height=8.0cm]{}{movie.avi}
The problem is that the video loses quality due to resizing.
How do I make beamer show the video in its original size, i.e. the same size as when I play it in VLC or Media Player?
I tried putting the size of the video in pixels like this:
\movie[width=600px,height=600px]{}{movie.avi}
But beamer
displayed it much bigger than it should.

With the
media9
package and Adobe Reader you can play video files in a detached window at their natural size. You need to know the video size in pixels and pass it as an argument to thewindowed
option, e. g.:(Replace
myvid.mp4
with your video file, which must be in the H.264 format.)
