Full Screen Quicktime during Presentation?

Can anyone think of a way to go to different full screen Quicktimes during a presentation? I can't think of anything.
Thanks.

you mean OTHER than putting each one on a slide and stretching it to fill the slide?
I've had multiple QT movies sitting open in the QT Pro player before. I hit H to hide Keynote and fire which ever video I want to screen 2. Works great.

How do you make an iMovie HD movie full screen in Keynote presentation?

Hey everybody, and Happy Holidays!
I have a presentation tomorrow morning where I will be using a VGA connector to a video projector to present my Keynote presentation. I have tried just about every way I know how to make my imported iMovie HD film full screen during the Keynote presentation, but so far the best I can do is making the slides the 1024 size, which still leaves a black background above and below the movie when it is playing.
Basically, what can I do to make my iMovie film full screen in Keynote?
Thanks!

First off, I'd be a bit worried if the movie wouldn't play in Quicktime Player -- that's pretty odd, since QT is essentially what Keynote is using for playback as well.
If you have a new MacBook, then its display's "native" resolution is 1280 X 800, which is pretty much HD (which is 1280 X 720). By way of working through this, I'd first set your screen to 1280 X 800, and then set the slide size in Keynote to 1280 X 720 (which is one of the default sizes, precisely because it fits HD). If you do this, and if you set your movie as wide as it will go and centred, then it will leave 40 pixels at the top and bottom of the display when you play the presentation. There is no way around this, as it is simply the case that the height of the movie in pixels is less than the height of the screen. If you tried to fit the movie onto all of the screen, you'd either have to blow it up so that the top and bottom were at the screen edge, which would cut off the left and right parts of the movie (this is like what is done in "pan-and-scan" or "full-screen" DVDs of theatre films), or you'd have to "stretch" the movie vertically, which would distort it.
Complicating all of this is your projector. Even if it is just mirroring your display, if it is a digital projector, it too has its own "native" resolution, and unlike your MacBook, it is very unlikely to be a 16:9 ratio, but rather a 4:3 ratio (800 X 600, or 1024 X 768). So even if you hook up your 1280 X 800 MacBook, the projector will still at best project a squarer image, which may show up as narrow bands of darkness above and below your "mirrored" display.
In short form: there is no way to avoid the black bands -- they arise because the movie isn't as tall as the display, and there's no way around that.

Full screen quicktime at 1680 x 1050

Have any of you heard that quicktime running full screen at 1680 x 1050 can be a problem because the 1050 height is not divisible by four???

Because that's a low barrier to entry (a content provider could just add a few pixels to make it 1052 and take advantage of the computational savings), many of the recent ones like MPEG-4 and Sorenson work better given these dimensions. I think older codecs like Cinepak may have have a divisible by 2 but I'm probably wrong about that. (Cinepak doesn't look very good anyway).
Perhaps one of the "archive" formats like PNG or Animation might play at the same speed, but they're quite computationally intensive as well. What are you trying to accomplish at this specific resolution?

Two Second Skip Switching Between Windowed and Full Screen Modes During Playback YouTube videos

I am finding that every video I watch skips two seconds every time I switch back and forth from Full Screen mode. Happens mostly with 720p videos in YouTube.
Can be replicated by pausing the video (also possible during playback, pausing it was just to determine how long the skip is), switching to Full Screen and back, noticing the two second change on the timer.
Main operating environment is Opera browser on Windows 7 (x86), Flash ver. 11.1.102.55 and 12beta. I have also been able to replicate the problem on Internet Explorer ver. 9.0.8112.16421

I see about 30-80 MB memory usage increase while switching to fullscreen and it is falling back while switching back to normal mode.
I think the "freeing" of the memory is to agressive and produces such "lags."
@Adobe: This should be optimized with the next versions.
Update:
With the Plash Player plugin (Firefox Nightly/Opera Next) it is worse and with Active-X (IE9) it seems to be ok.

How to exit full screen, not icons present

I entered full screen mode, all icons disappeared and I cannot get out of full screen

hit F11 in keyboard
thank you

IMovie 09 playback(full-screen) choppy during titles and transitions.

When I insert someting like a moving title, or a fading transition into my movie: the full-screen playback (and not the playback on the viewer) gets choppy or skips a movement. It specifically happens where the screen should be fading/transitioning or when a title should be moving/fading onto the screen. I have all the updates for 09 and I'm pretty sure that if this is the case on a full-scree, it would defenitely happen on a published exported version.

Want Keynotes' presenter's display to be NOT in full screen

Hello,
I do live music shows on a Single MacBook Pro. Retina Display, Running 10.10.1
In my show I run Keynote for visuals (always on a secondary large TV via HDMI out) and I run Audio via MainStage from the Logic Suite.
I want to be able to exit work in MainStage, (switching songs, changing volumes etc.) WITHOUT interrupting Keynotes Video display or pictures, text, videos etc.
How can I do this.
The only way to play a slide show is to play it, and when it plays it automatically turns the presenter's display to full scree, thereby locking me out of access to MainStage, or any other software.
Any way to play a Keynote slide show NOT in full screen for the presenter's display????
please help.

When Keynote is in play, no other applications will be seen as Keynote takes over complete control of the graphics system, if you switch from Keynote to another application, Keynote will be hidden. Keynote has always worked this way.
We use two Macs to be able to display Keynote and a second application.

Timeline and full screen view in PSE11

I have read as many reviews of PSE11 as I can find but none have mentioned the Timeline, which I use every day. Does it still exist in PSE11? What about the full screen view and compare side by side view? Do they still exist. If they do, can you still see the image full-size by clicking on it in full screen view?

Timeline and Full Screen View exists in PSE11 and all the earlier functionalities present in full screen view are present. The Timeline and Full Screen View can be accessed from View menu of Elements Organizer.

Cant get full screen...

I am running a mac mini on an LG 42" plasma TV and have tried all the various screen resolutions. My problem is that I have videos which are 624x368 (close enough to accurate 16:9 widescreen video) and these display as a full frame image (no black bars) within the Quicktime viewer. However when i make it full screen Quicktime adds black bars to the top and bottom of the image, therefore squashing it. I assume it is doing this as the macmini thinks the LG TV is 4:3 and needs the black bars to look correct.
The only 16:9 resolution available on the macmini appear to be 1024x720 but this looks wrong on my TV and you lose the dock and menu bar. I have also tried 1920x1080, but the resolution is too high for the television and the text becomes illegible. So it would seem that the macmini knows it is in the wrong aspect for a widescreen tv and is compensating by adding the black bars top and bottom. But although the resolution is not correct it is fine for computing, and if I could fill the screen with the video image it would then be in the correct aspect.
So how can I get Quicktime to fill the screen and ignore the fact that the macmini thinks the tv is wrong?

*Not sure if this will work. May depend on the model of the TV.*
When I am watching a movie either from a DVD or from the 52" screen non plasma TV itself that has those black bars (top & bottom) I just use Zoom mode to get rid of the bars. My picture is not distorted in any way.
On my 42" screen plasma TV, I use *Movie Theater* mode to get rid of the black bars. No picture distortion.
Check your TV manual. Should be some instructions in there for what you are trying to do.

Full screen Flash video is extremely slow

I have a 2010 27" iMac with an ATI Radeon HD 4670 graphics card. Full screen Flash video (e.g., Hulu) is extremely slow and choppy on it (4-5 frames per second). Full screen Quicktime or HTML5 video is fine. On my previous iMac (2008, 24", NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS), full screen Flash video is smooth as silk. I realize my current video card is low- to mid-range, but should that really matter? I'm not sure if this is a video card issue, or something else. Here's a list of other things I've tried:
Other web browsers
Uninstalled and reinstalled the current version Flash
Uninstalled and reinstalled an older version of Flash
Installed Shockwave
Disabled hardware acceleration
Reinstalled Mac OS X Snow Leopard
As much as Apple wants to distance itself from Flash, I would be really shocked if a modern iMac was incapable of doing what a 3-year old iMac could do effortlessly. Anyone else have any ideas, or do I just need to upgrade my video card?

in youtube one can choose various level of resolutions
like hd or sd and the hd's are in various levels of high resolutions
if performance is the issue the first place I would look would be the resolution of
the set stream

Full screen, stretched image

I'd really like to be able to use the full screen feature during video chats, but the image gets stretched -- due, I imagine, to the fact that I have a widescreen monitor. I don't suppose there's any way to fix this?
Also, is there any way I can turn off that pesky preview window? If I wanted to look at myself, I'd use a mirror.

The iChat add-on Chax (http://www.ksuther.com/chax) can remove the picture in picture effect as well as adding a bunch of other really great features to iChat. And it's free.
I'm looking for a solution to the stretched fullscreen image as well, grandma doesn't want to be wider.

How disable the full screen option in the standard or wireframe video player ?

I was wondering if (and how) it's possible to just disable the full screen option in the controls that appear below the video player (standard or wireframe).
I want to have a video player with the progression bar, play / pause options, the counter without the full screen option because: "When someone clicks the Full Screen button during playback, the video opens in a pop-up window. Any interaction used to transition to a new state in the application does not work."

Thanks for your help.

I don't think so from within Flash Catalyst. That is all part of the component. I took a quick look at the docs, and did not see that element at as a parameter. There are only two options I can think of: either build a custom controller in Flash Catalyst (which may not have all the same functionality as the stock controller) or take your project into Flash Builder and modify the controller skin there.

Can't get full screen in QT 7 Pro

I cannot get true full screen in QT 7 Pro in Panther on my 15" PB. I select full screen and select present movie but still get top menu (and dock but I can hide that). Full screen is selected in preferences too.
Any ideas.
ETA - Okay now I see I just can't get rid of the menu bar when I have my projector hooked up to the PB. What's up with that?

Most movies are 4:3 aspect and your Powerbook screen is not.
Try Command-3 (while in full screen mode) when the file is opened as it will maximize to your screen height.
Square pegs won't fit into a round hole. You should have learned that with Playskool toys.

What's happened to Hide Toolbar in Full Screen?

Before Mavericks I could hide the toolbar in full screen.
At present when I right click on the toolbar the option to hide toolbar is no longer there.
When I go to Menu then View the option Hide Toolbar is greyed out.
Is there another way to hide the toolbar in full screen?
Why are Apple driving people to other web browsers?

Hide/Show Toolbar grayed out?
Perhaps a Safari extension causing this ...
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
