Actually, I get two lines:

"Something is wrong with your dimensions. Make sure you enter dimensions in the form of WxH.
Something is wrong with your player dimensions. Make sure you enter the player dimensions in the form of WxH."

I did nothing special, just created a file upload field with swftools widget, and uploaded a flv video. Settings according to swfvideo manual.
Tried other versions of swftools core and drupal's swftoosl, but same result.

Subscribing as I am seeing the same. What did I miss when configuring?

data point: I'm not using the SWFUpload so I do not think this issue is stemming from the SWFUpload module.

I'm having the same issue with another player so it might not be a SWFUpload problem... I'm using flowplayer

Same issue here. I uploaded a quicktime movie so it's using the QuickTime player. I see in the HTML that the height and width of the player are empty strings, so something is certainly missing.

Here you can find the drupal_set_message calls.

Hack...

    $data = $element['#item']['data'];
    $dimensions = array($data['height'], $data['width']);

So the size is taken from the nodes videofield data.
But why is there no a 'dimensions' entry?
