Update based on new code - You can use the loadedmetadata event for this, I've updated your jsbin example here with this

$('input').click(function () {
  $('#thumbnail video').clone().bind('loadedmetadata', function() {
    alert($('#viewing-area video').height());
  }).appendTo('#viewing-area');
});
