Cant play full screen

I upgraded my qt 6 pro on my power book and now I cant play fullscreen movies. Surely I dont have to buy qt pro again for the version mac gave as a free update so I can have full screen again

Full screen viewing of QuickTime content has always been a "Pro" feature. It's not part of the "free" player.
When you moved to Tiger you installed QT version 7 (a core component). Your version 6 Pro is no longer installed and version 7 is a new "Pro" purchase.

How can I have small video embeds play full screen?

I have a design with embedded videos (pulling from my photo album).
In the design they fit inside other elements, often at a reduced size.
When I tap them in a presentation, I'd like them to go full screed instead of playing at their "native" embed size.
Tap, full screen play, tap, return to page and pause.
Much like a website does in a "lightbox" mode.
Is this possible?

How can I have small videos play full screen?

Apologies, this seemed to be the right place...

Have reset Firefox & completed all of steps in "Flash video won't play full screen on YouTube, Facebook and other websites", but video still won't work. Help!

I have reset Firefox, completed all the steps in "flash video won't play full screen on YouTube, Facebook and other websites". And the video still won't play in full screen. It will play, but frequently stops or sound continues and picture freezes. I have noticed that if I continually move my mouse, it plays fine. All these videos play fine in IE and Chrome.

Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
#Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
#Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
#Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
# Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
# Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
# Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
# Restart Firefox.
This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

How do I stop videos playing full screen on iPhone 5c?

Hi
I've recently purchased the iPhone 5C and I'm having trouble working out Safari and playing audios. When I click an audio (ie.. a radio programme on download) it immediately expands to full screen and I cannot find a way of going back to the safari screen. I have to keep the audio playing until the end and then it seems to switch back. I know there's probably something really simple I can do to stop videos and use Safari to browse something else, but for the life of me I can't work out what! help please!
Thanks
Alun

OK - so someone sent me a downloadable audio file on dropbox. I clicked "download" and it immediately opened safari and started playing full screen. I couldn't do anything to stop it playing or open a browser window to search. how do I stop this from happening? I can't use safari until the audio has completed and returned to a safari browser screen.

'Play Full Screen' looks different than 'play' (makes timing errors)

In iMovie, 'Play Full Screen' behaves differently than 'Play' Makes timing errors, cuts off the beginning of commentaries, etc.

You can't disable tap/zoom scaling. What happens if you add a margin and disable thumbnail?
Can you convert them to a Keynote presentation (Hype?)?
One option would be to reduce the original video dimensions and add a frame/mask around it before adding into a book, that way when it is expanded, it sits at a smaller size. Bunch of work, maybe, so unless you have higher rez video, that may be your best option.

Why do music videos not play full screen when not in video app on iPad and iPhone? video app is worthless, cannot sort or build playlists.

Is there a way to build video playlist within itunes that will play full screen or landscape? I do not like the video app.

Greetings avilation,
Thanks for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like when you stream videos to your iOS devices using Home Sharing, you only get either video or audio.
You can find some troubleshooting steps that may help this situation on this page:
Troubleshooting Home Sharing - Apple Support
I'd recommend starting with Step 4 (Check your network connection) in this guide.

MacBook Pro Retina 13" fan very loud/overheats when playing full screen video/games

Hi,
Just purchased a MacBook Pro Retina, refurbished (because why not - the same product for a cheaper price) around a month ago. It's the 13 inch and is the model before the most recent one came out (4GB of RAM instead of 8GB - late 2013). From the very first day, playing a full-screen video on any site (be it YouTube, Facebook, etc) just makes the fan much louder than usual (so loud that you can almost hear it more over the video itself). Thought it may have been just a thing with Flash Player being buggy, but the problem has persisted for a while now. I'm not even pushing the CPU to any limits - literally playing a full-screen video on Facebook (not even in HD) makes the fan go crazy.
Just last night I tried installing Borderlands 2 and it was the same thing - FPS rate was fine, no lag, just the fan was so loud that I actually got scared for my computer and turned it off. After closing the app and checking out the fan temperature, it was at 91c.
Never happens when browsing/surfing or doing my usual work.
Should I go give it back to Apple? The thing is I start university in less than a week (and hence will be traveling), so not sure if I can afford to give my laptop in to them for a long period of time (I know it should be free though since mine is a refurb item). May it just be an issue that is quickly repairable or is this worse?

During processor intensive activities—such as processing HD video or playing a game that makes extensive use of the graphics processor—the fans speed up to provide additional airflow.

IDVD, jerky when played + full screen problems

Dear all,
I'm new to iDVD and am not sure what I've done wrong.
I made QT movies from FCPx and imported them into iDVD. First I had problems with keeping it widescreen but have seem to have sorted that out. However now I have 2 more problems that have come up:
1. Everything is widescreen but when I click on the chapters to view the video's, it automatically stops being full screen and goes down to a smaller screen and then you need to click 'full screen' for it to go back, this only happens on a few of them.
2. Some parts of the DVD don't work, the footage goes all funny like ghosts and it jumps around and doesn't play nicely, then all of a sudden it works for a bit, then back to not working. This is the same on TV or MacBook Pro
I tried using 2 different themes and the same thing happened. Any thoughts?

then my thought
I made QT movies from FCPx and imported them into iDVD
.qt, .mov etc are containers - What codec are Your movie built as ?
open movie in QuickTime Player and open inspector and read Codec: ?
or
free space on Start-Up (Mac OS) hard disk. HOW MUCH ? (others of NO interest)
I do from FCE/P do like this
FCE/P to iDVD
Several things
• How to go from FCE/P to iDVD
• Free space on Start-up hard disk
• Encoding
• Brand and type of DVDs used
• Burn speed set
• iDVD BUG
• Chapters
How to go from FCE/P to iDVD I do
• Disable Screen and Energy saver
• IMPORTANT --> FIRST in FinalCut - Mix Down Audio under Sequence Menu / Render Only / Mix-down
• Export out as a QuickTime .mov file
• Select with Mark - Chapter Mark
• Not as Self-Contained (not important but saves time and space)
• NO QUICKTIME CONVERSION (IMPORTANT)
This QT.mov file I import into iDVD from within iDVD.
Free space on Start-up hard disk
I set a minimum of 25GB (for Mac OS and iDVDs temp files)
Encoding
• I use Pro Quality encoding
Brand and type of DVDs used
• I use Verbatim
• I use DVD-R
Burn speed set
• I set down this to x4 (or x1)
iDVD BUG
• One can not go back to movie-project for any alterations and then go back to
the iDVD project. It will notice and ask You to either Up-date or Cancel. Neither
of them will work.
Medicine - Start a brand new iDVD project.
Use of Chapters
• I only use a to z and 0 to 9 in naming them. NO other symbol/letter !
• NO Chapter-mark at very beginning - iDVD NEEDS TO set this by it self
• No Chapter marks in or within two seconds from a transition
(Way around this last one - Export movie as QT full quality and NO Chapter marks
Import this into a new Movie-project and now You are free to set C-Ms where You want
them except at very beginning - still)
Material used to build movie
• video - I use streamingDV (or convert all other to this eg .mp4, .avi, .wmv etc)
• audio - I use .aiff 16-bit 48kHz or from Audio-CD (44.1kHz) - no .mp3 or direct from iTunes
• photos - I use .jpg - no .bmp etc
Trash iDVD pref. file and run Repair Permissions - and have a re-try.
Run a CLEANING-DVD from tiome to time
from post ??
May not be relevant, but I had the same problem with iDVD, where burned DVDs showed a green screen. It was cured by quitting Quicksilver and Quickeys as well as disabling sleep and screen-saving

970 4G FPS drop for second screen when playing full screen video

Hi,
I have two 1440p monitors connected to my graphcis card using DVI connectors.
Whenever I play a full screen video on the secondary screen, I was always get an FPS drop. It doesn't matter if I switch the cables around to make the other one the secondary screen.
I have tried replacing the monitors and the same thing happens and I can only conclude it must be the graphics card.
Does anyone know how I can troubleshoot this problem?

Quote from: krash.raj on 31-May-15, 20:04:19
1) I'm not familiar with this concept. Why would switching port type provide more bandwidth?
2) Also, the card I'm referencing only has 1 display port connection. Would using one dvi and one display port cable work?
1) Google for "dvi", "hdmi" & "displayport" and you'll find out why.
2) use DisplayPort + dual-link DVI (always suggested by Nvidia)

How do I get my DVDs to play full screen on a second screen?

I downloaded OS X Lion a few days ago and went to watch a movie on the second screen that is hooked up to my macbook pro. Instead of going to full screen on my TV, the movie moved itself back onto my computer and filled my second screen with a gray picture. Why does it do this, and is ther any way to play a DVD on a second screen in full screen? I have tried mirroring but the movie will not fill my TV screen like it used to with the old system because it is limited to the shape of my computer screen.

This is a general problem with the full screen mode under lion. Every time you bring whatever application in full screen mode the secondary screen is not usable anymore. As workaround you can only switch the primary screen onto you TV screen as long as you watch movies.
I know that this is no final solution but the only alternate is to roll back to SL. (I did so, and now I wait until Apple fix the problem)
Unfortunately Apple devellopers don't watch the community discussions. If you want to inform them about this problem please use the following link:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/
I did it also and discribed the problem there. My hope is that if many people do the same this problem gets higher priority and will be resolved by apple devellopers.

Why do custom widgets have to play full screen

Whats the reason that apples own widgets can play directly on the book - the video, quiz, interactive image etc
but if we create a widget in dashcode it can only work once made full screen?
is there a setting in the widget publication that will allow it to act like the native widgets?

Those instructions refer to running the application in fullscreen mode using the Lion operating system. Since you don't see either option, I suspect you don't have Lion installed.

Can I have control Quicktime to play full screen?

(below) to force a video to go full screen. This worked great with
MX however the effect seems to have changed with MX04.
It now leaves a small gap at the bottom of the screen hiding

How do I make the DVD player play full screen in my external monitor instead of my laptop?

I just upgraded to Lion, and I have my laptop screen and my external monitor, and every time I tell my computer to play a DVD in full screen, it makes the full screen slide over from my giant external montior to my tiny laptop screen. How do I make it not do this? I would like to be able to watch my DVDs on the larger high-res monitor instead of my tiny laptop screen, but I can't seem to find the right preferences window or something.

With DVD player open, have you check the menu bar > Window > Show/Hide Controller?
