Full screen problem in firefox

Hi there,
I have (nearly) completed a project in which i have used a
full screen technique which has worked fine.
Unfortunately, when I open the html file in firefox the swf
is not displayed properly (ie its all squashed at the top of the
browser window).
When opened in safari & explorer etc it works fine, is
there any reason for this and if so how can I overcome this
problem?
Thanks (in advanced)

Any chance your video card might have "video" related settings that might be interfering?  While I'm not suggesting that you switch browsers, trying to reproduce this on another browser will give us a datapoint to see if this is firefox specific.  I would recommend giving both IE or Chrome a try to see if it still occurs.

    The Firefox window pops up on a regular interval (I think every 5 or 10 min) when any other program is being used, even when a film is playing in full screen mode from Firefox. It does not happen if Firefox is not running (i.e. it does not start by itself). The OS is Windows 7 SP1 and this begun after installing the Firefox update 5.0.1. Exactly all programs are updated with the latest version, the computer is clean according to Microsoft Security Essentials. Please solve this problem.

    How to get out of "Full Screen Mode" in firefox 4 ?

    Pressing the F11 should do it.

  • I accidently click for a full screen view on Firefox and now I can't undo it. My bar with tools, bookmarks, etc. is not visible. As the browser opens, the bar appears but then jumps up where it can't be reached. How do I turn off the full screen?

    I accidently clicked for a full screen view on Firefox and now I can't undo it. My bar with tools, bookmarks, etc. is not visible. As the browser opens, the bar appears but then jumps up where it can't be reached. How do I turn off the full screen without access to view options?

    Co-el, This wasn't possible as there wasn't a navigation bar available. The F11 did the trick though. Thanks for adding to the discussion.

  • Did a search, now have a full screen. No firefox symbol no toolbar. How do I get them back

    Had a toolbar but when I did search for badgehungry.com I must have hit something accidentally because I have a full screen & have no idea how to get toolbar etc. back. The articles didn't help, because I have no idea WHAT key they are talking about.

  • 10.6.3 and full screen problems!

    Ever since updating to 10.6.3 I can't view any videos or photos in full screen mode...firefox, safari, iPhoto, preview, etc all just give a black screen (though I can still hear audio from videos). Extremely frustrating! In iPhoto, if I double click a photo to view it, it now does absolutely nothing...full screen mode just shows a black screen (I also can no longer edit photos). I am also having major permissions problems with windows smb servers (and have tried fixing permission several times).
    Anyone else having this problem?

    I've heard of the Windows SMB issues but not a solution.
    Regarding the full screen issue(s), do you have any external displays and what resolution are you using? Maybe you have some QuickTime plugins that aren't compatible? Check /Library/Quicktime/.
    Do you have another system to test with?
    What version of iPhoto? (X.y.z version format)
    If you have switchable graphics in the Energy Saver, try switching and logging out. If you haven't restarted, try that. Full screen videos in your browser may be Flash. See if there's a later Flash plug-in from Adobe.
    Good Luck!

  • 8.1 full screen problems landscape

    Since updating to 8.1   Tapping to view videos in full screen goes to portrait full screen instead of landscape full screen while in landscape position. There are also problems  trying to full screen in portrait position.

    Your statement is a bit vague as to where you see this behavior.... In the Videos App, Safari, YouTube? Every video In every app? WIthout more details, try the basic troubleshooting steps. Clear Safari, close all apps, reset your iPad. If that doesn't help, reset all settings.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History and Website Data
    Now close all apps. In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If those three things made no difference, try this. Reset all settings. You will not lose any data, but most of the device settings will have to be entered in the settings app again. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings.

  • How to get out of full screen mode in Firefox

    Have tried to get out of full screen mode by pressing F11 and f11 and esc but nothing works.  any suggestions?

    Shift-CMD-F toggles full screen off and on in Fx. Also, if you've put the Full Screen icon in the Firefox Toolbar, bring the mouse cursor up to the top of the screen. This will reveal the toolbar and you can click on the icon to return to normal.
    Get the icon from View>Toolbars>Customize. Drag it into the Toolbar somewhere.

  • Macbook Pro connected to HDTV full screen problem

    I connected my Macbook Pro to my TV via HDMI. When i have an application on the TV (safari) and press the full screen button (upper right corner with the 2 arrows) my Macbbok display shows this grey area. If fulscreen an application on the Macbbok display the same thing happens. Aslo when i navigate through the full sceen apps in one display hte other display also changes. Is there something that solves this problem?

    This is just an educated guess, but I think your problem may be distance. It sounds like you've got 60' of cable running to a splitter, then more cable to two TV's that are 50' apart. This article seems to indicate HDMI distance isn't reliable with that much cable.

    An easy test would be to try it with shorter cables. If that works at least you know where your problem lies.

  • .Swf file full screen problem

    Hi, i'm using FMS 4.0 to perform an rtmp stream and an .swf player, built in Flash professional to open the stream!
    My problem is that when i embed the swf into my site (www.livezone.gr), all the buttons work except of the full screen button! To embed the swf file i have uploaded it to my web server first in a folder which also includes the Skin.swf file and
    i use the following  code to embed it :
    <iframe src="My Video.swf" frameborder="0"  width="610" height="480"></iframe>
    The problem is only when embeding it,otherwise when i open it directly from my webserver or my pc everything works fine!
    .That's my only problem,if you can help me solve it everything will work like a charm!
    Thanks in advance, Michail Papamichalakis

    open the fla that published your swf.  click file>publish settings, tick html if it's not already ticked.  click the html tab>click the template combobox and select flash only - allow fullscreen.
    then click file>publish.
    you should see your swf file (re)published and an html file in the directory with your fla.
    put the flash published swf and html in the same directory with your iframe containing html file and change your iframe tag to:
    <iframe src="Live%20Streaming%20player1.html" frameborder="0" width="610" height="480" ></iframe>
    assuming that's the name of the html file published by flash.

  • Full-screen problem on YouTube

    This just started a few weeks ago:
    When I go to full-screen mode on YouTube, I get a weird, messed up image that looks like an x-ray or something.  Very dark overall, with blurry and unreadable graphics.
    Hulu is fine in full-screen mode.  Youtube is not.  Tried Safari 3.1.2 and FireFox 3.6.6.  Both do the weird x-ray thing on YouTube.
    Any advice?

    go to your home folder (the home icon should appear next to it) and then Library> safari > extensions
    if you don't have a folder that says extentions in the safari folder, then you don't have extensions which would put us back to 0. if you do, move the files out of the folder in a safe place and make sure safari isn't running.
    Reboot after movine the safari extensions out of the folder they were in and into a different one (maybe on your desktop).
    Now open safari and see if you are still having youtube issues.

  • Full Screen problem opening PDF on PC projector

    Using Flash CS3 on Mac - creating both Mac and PC projector files to go on a CD presentation
    Ok I have come across the following problem.
    When the CD is inserted the presentation starts automatically (on PC) and gives a list of PDFs which can be opened using EXEC fscommand. All works fine with the Mac version but on the PC version the Flash projector opens in Full Screen Mode and runs ok until I choose to open a PDF, then the presentation changes to Windowed Mode!!!
    Is there any way to stop the PC version of the projector leaving Full Screen Mode when a PDF is selected
    Any help would be appreciated

  • Full Screen Problem With Dual Monitor Viewing

    I have a 64 Bit system, Chrome browser and with flash player built in.  I am attempting to view videos on a 2nd monitor while working on the primary monitor.  I have tried this on various sites, TNT.tv, USANetworks.com, etc...  I select full screen viewing.  A message is displayed to exit full screen press escape.  However, when I attempt to do anything else automatically exit full screen on the second monitor.   This should not be an issue and with the way most people view video online, they are doing so on a 2nd monitor or TV.  I have done a google search and it is a common problem, but there is no solution that seems to work.

    I have just posted the same question - missed yours.
    Adobe could you take a look into this - I think solving this problem can't be that hard.

  • 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

  • PSE 6 - Dual Monitor Full Screen Problem

    I've got a Thinkpad (with NVIDIA Quadro M140 integrated graphics) connected via DVI to a Samsung SyncMaster 206BW monitor using Vista Enterprise.
    I've set up my workspace as Dual Monitor, DualView.   My Font DPI is set at 96 (Default).
    When I click Maximize on the Thinkpad LCD, PSE 6 opens fully and correctly.
    When I click Maximize on the Samsung external monitor, PSE 6 opens a window that is larger than the monitor AND there are no bars at the bottom to shift the display.  Therefore, I cannot see about 15% of the right side of the window when in Maximum/Full Screen mode.
    PSE 6 appears to be the only program that has this problem.
    I cannot adjust the monitor, since I'm connected via DVI.
    All video drivers are current.
    Is there a fix for this problem?

    I haven't seen this occur on my Macbook pro with secondary or triple monitors.  Is this happening with all fullscreen content (eg. YouTube)?  What browser and Flash Player Version are you using?  Also, is this a retina macbook?
