Full Screen movies do not work in Firefox

Hi All,
I am having a problem publishing Flash 8 movies full screen.
They are fine in Internet Explorer. But Firefox crops the full
screen so that you only see a portion of the full screen movie.
I am using Firefox 2.0.0.4, as well as version 2.0.0.6 on my
laptop. Can't get full screen to work in Firefox most of the time,
but occasionally it seems to work. Is this a Firefox problem, or
Captivate problem?
An example, look at the full screen movie:

Thanks, Suzan

Mmm.. Interesting... because I am using Firefox 2.0.0.4. I am
also using Firefox 2.0.0.6 on my laptop like you are, and it seems
to work fine. I guess it don't understand the technical details of
why full screen will not work on Firefox. What I find interesting
is that some of my full screen movies do work fine on 2.0.04. I
wonder if it the Flash Version in which the full screen is
published? I will try some further testing.
I am concerned because there are likely many users of earlier
Firefox versions, and I need to produce a full screen which will
work no matter which Firefox Version you use.
Thanks!
Suzan

Is your problem that the browser window refuses to display at
full screen or is the Flash movie itself not showing at it's proper
size? Knowing that would at least help us know where to look.

Photoshop: full screen mode shortcut not working

photoshop: full screen mode shortcut not working, if i press shirt+alt+ctr key then i delete the file, what happen ?

Could you elaborate?
F is the default shorcut for »Change Screen Mode« for me, so I’m not sure what you want with the qualifier keys.
Have you changed your Edit > Keyboard Shortcut?

Full Screen Hide Panels Not Working with Mac

They worked during my trial, but not since I purchased Lightroom. One thing that has changed is that I upgraded from OS 10.4 to 10.6 with Snow Leopard. Having the Full Screen Hide Panel mode is crucial to me since I work on a laptop and I need to see images as large as possible. Please help!

Ian,
Thank you very much. Just to be clear (if I'm capable of it clarity which I doubt), neither the hitting shift + function + "f" key, nor going to the Window list and going to "Screen Mode" and selecting "Full Screen and Hide Panels" works. When I return to the screen mode option after having chosen "Full Screen and HIde Panels" the check is on "Full Screen". When I click on "Full Screen and Hide Panels" the Lightroom screen goes from "Full" to "Normal" if it had been at "Full" and goes to "Full" if it had been at "Normal", but never does it go completely full and entirely hide the panels so that there is nothing but image, with no panel markers at its border. That is how I remember it working during my trial.
Ian, "trash the existing preferences file"? What then? Don't I need it? Do I get a new one?

The Full Screen icon does not appear in Firefox 16.0.2 on Mac OS 10.6.8, and command+shift+F does not close the full screen view.

I accidentally entered full screen view and was unable to exit. The Firefox Help article at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-make-firefox-and-websites-go-full-screen?esab=a&s=full+screen+mac&r=0&as=s says I should see a Full Screen View icon in the upper right-hand corner of the Firefox window. That icon not there. I cannot find it. It does not appear in either the full screen or non-full screen views.
Further, the Help article's advice to exit full screen view by using the keyboard sequence command+shift+F does not work. I had to unplug my iMac and reboot. Firefox then opened in non-full screen view.
Ideally, hitting the Escape key would cause Firefox to exit full screen view.

I forgot one detail. This happened while I was having trouble seeing the mouse cursor (I use Apple's Magic Mouse). It had disappeared briefly. I had to drag the cursor out of the Firefox Window for it to reappear. I accidentally entered full screen view while the cursor was not visible.

The menu bar is missing AND the article about the full screen issue is NOT WORKING.

<blockquote>Locking duplicate thread.<br>
Please continue here: [[/questions/929810]]</blockquote>
The entire Firefox window is visible (including tabs, x and +). I can enter and exit full screen, and the menu bar does not reappear.

If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key to make the menu bar appear.

Full Screen in Premiere not working right

I tend to go into Cinema mode a lot because I edit on one screen, but whenever I hit the Ctrl+Tilde to access it, the full screen is not setup right. It's like the full screen is bigger than it should be and it's hard to tell if everything looks right, because it definitely doesn't look right. I have black bars on, but I do not see the bottom bar and it looks like it's scaled bigger than it should. What is wrong?

>Blackmagic Footage
Did you check with that vendor to see if there is (or needs to be) a device driver update for CC2014?
I have read that the "internals" changed from CC to CC2014, so it MAY be possible you need a new driver from Blackmagic

FF will load but website only appears when scrolling over icon. How do I bring to full screen, clicking will not work and max will not work

FF shows that it is loaded but the website will not come onto the screen. When I put the mouse on the icon, the website is there, apparently to be opened. I click on it, screen flickers and nothing but still showing on icon. I right click, select maximum, and nothing. I was on 3.6.15, upgraded to 3.6.16 and not to 3.4. They are all doing the same thing. I uninstalled FF and reinstalled. Still nothing.

OK, I found a way to do this. Might not be the best way, but it turns out that I can put a addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, gottaMouseUp) in the calling class, add a public variable in the button class that lets me know if the correct button has been clicked, and use that in the calling class to decide which button was clicked. I knew it was something simple like that....

Movie sound not working when in full screen

Isqlplus with full connection description does not work in netscape/firefox

http://machine/isqlplus?userid="user/pass@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx)(PORT=1521))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=xxx)(SRVR=DEDICATED)))"
This works in IE, but fails in netscape and firefox with: SP2-0874: URL argument is missing a keyword
It looks like a URL encoding issue. Has anyone seen this and if so have you found a solution?

Thanks for the try, but that didn't help. Actually, without the full connection description it works in both browsers, i.e.
http://machine/isqlplus?userid=user/pass@servicename
does work in both. isqlplus under firefox appears to not like the encoding as:
http://machine/isqlplus?userid="user/pass@servicename"
this does not work under firefox. But with a full connect string it appears I need the quotes as without nether works.

Full Screen Movies

Hi;
I have the following code in Python to display my movies:
<object classid='clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000' width='%s' height='%s' id='Maya2012Main' name='Maya2012Main'>
<param name='movie' value='Maya2012Main.swf'>
<param name='allowfullscreen' value='true'>
<param name='allowscriptaccess' value='always'>
<param name="FlashVars" value="pg_name=%s" />
<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
<embed id='Maya2012Main'
        name='Maya2012Main'
        src='Maya2012Main.swf'
        width='%s'
        height='%s'
        FlashVars="pg_name=%s"
        pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
        type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
        allowscriptaccess='always'
        allowfullscreen='true'
/>
</object>''' % (str(int(round(wn*1008))), str(int(round(wn*548))), page, str(int(round(wn*1008))), str(int(round(wn*548))), page)
I test the requesting browser for the screen width, but this is not optimal. Isn't there a simple way to make width=100%?
TIA,
Beno

Quicktime movie does not work on hosted iWeb website

Problem: I have a media file portion on my iWeb designed website that displays pictures (working very well) and one that is supposed to show a movie (not working at all). The movie was made with iMovie and has an .m4v extension. When you click on the link for the movie it shows a blank screen on Firefox and a Quicktime logo with a big question mark on Safari. I'm attempting to view the website on my Mac with the latest Quicktime software on it but it doesn't work. Any ideas on how to fix it?
Some additional info: the hosting provider is 1and1.com and I have a Windows server package (unfortunately). Also, if I publish the site to a folder the movie area works flawlessly, it just does not work on the hosted site.
Thanks!!

Thank you. I converted the file to .MOV and it now works on Safari but has not worked on Firefox (have not tried yet on a Windows based machine). At least headed in the right direction. I will also contact 1and1. Thanks again.
