YouTube Video resizes wrongly

Hi, I have a last problem (I think). When I embed a video in the BuddyPress Activity Stream, by providing the URL, it doesn't properly resize. Here for you to see (with comments):

I posted it to see for everyone on the activity stream.
after a refresh it seems to resize correctly. it's really strange.

How are you adding the video?
simply by using the youtube link (no extra code, just the url of the video). i guess it's firefox though i posted the error in another forum and i found out it doesnt happen with all browsers only with firefox.
Interesting - GP calculates the estimated content width for auto embedding media. Browsers shouldn't matter in this case, as the calculation is done in PHP.
Does this happen when you add it to a regular post or page?
no it doesn't. but right now I don't have the problem anymore after the buddypress upgrade.
Great :)
if it happens again i'll let you know.
It may be a BuddyPress thing if it happens again and isn't happening on regular pages or posts, so you may have to contact them if it does.
