This is a little ugly but I dunno of a better way. Thought it might be helpful.
To enlarge the tar movie window:
Copy the link at the top of the popup window, it starts like this: http://interface.audiovideoweb.com/ci/ppv/flswrap/....
At the end of it are some numbers for width and height.
....width=480&height=360&bgcolor=0xffffff
Paste the entire link into a new tab, and change the width and height. For example instead of 480 and 360, you can do 640 and 480. Experiment. There are other methods for zooming but this worked best for me.
-----------------------------
To get chat on the same page is a little more work:
You need firefox and the firebug plugin installed: http://getfirebug.com
At the bottom right corner of your firefox window (below the actual page) there's a tiny bug icon. Click it and firebug's editor pops up.
You will see <html> and <head> and under that <body>
Click the + next to body, and you'll see a line like this:
Where you see text-align, replace it with the word float.
So it should look like:
That made room for the chat. Keep that line highlighted in blue.
Now to paste the actual chat window into there.
Highlight all of the following and copy it (right-click --> copy)
Now, back in firebug, click the "Edit" button at the top left. Go to the very end of all that gibberish code and press ctrl+V on your keyboard to paste some more gibberish in there.
If all goes well you now have two windows side by side, one for the video and one for chat. Press minimize (the red _ button) at the top right of the firebug console.
If you have flashblock installed, make sure you get the video started first, and then start the chat.
