hello i'm new here and im not sure whether it is possibel to do what i want so be kind.

Right i have a nokia n95 8gb which has the ability to pla flash videos in the browser from sites like megavideo and youku.com ( a japanese youtube kind of thing). anyway due to the size fo the page and video it sometimes crashes when watching a video which is rather irritating. what i would like is for somebody to be able to automatically turn this

v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMjk4NDAwMTI=.html
into this
www.michaelrobinson.co.uk/vid.htm

it needs to be extracted from the page and then resized to the correct dimensions to play nicely on my phone. possibly a page where you enter the original URL of the video page and it does it nicely. because different sites will embed differently i can imagine it will be very difficult. but any feedback or ideas from you will be greatly appreciated. if it sint possible with php is it possible with another language?
