Full screen video controls don't work properl in Safari 5.1.

Since I recently updated to Safari 5.1, when a video embeded in a web page is moved into full screen mode, often the controls do not scale properly with with the video. They end up half off the left side of the screen and are fixed in position (cannot be grabbed and moved onto the screen.) When they doscale properly they are so low on the page scrubbing cannot be used as dock unhiding is activated. Again the control cannot be moved. Also the control does not fade out whn the cursor is moved off of it.
What's up?

You seem to have a situation similar to mine. If I understand correct, your display works perfectly when the brightness buttons work, but when the brightness buttons do not work, your screen dims from, say 100% to maybe 50%, and then back again... all on its own and at random intervals?
That's what is happening to me, is that happening to you too? Just wondering if you found a fix for this since your post.

Full Screen Videos in iTunes Don't Work in Leopard

Hi,
I've upgraded my MacBook Pro from Tiger to Leopard and I do have a registered Quicktime Pro 7 license. The QuickTime tab shows me that it's a Pro version. However, if I am trying to play full screen videos in iTunes I just see the mini video in the screen center. Any idea how I can fix this?

I have recently relocated to Australia & have since updated my itunes account with an Australain address.
The issue is your credit or debit card. They must be associated with the same country in which you reside.
"Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store. You can use the iTunes Store in all countries of which you’re a resident, but you’ll either need a separate iTunes Store account for each one, or you’ll need to continually be switching your billing information on your single account. Generally, it’s simpler just to set up an alternative account for these situations."

Problems with Full Screen Video not always working

Strange thing here. I just installed iTunes 7. Then I downloaded a movie to try it out. Now, I was under the impression that on the bottom left hand corner where the "Add to Playlist", "Shuffle" etc buttons are, there was supposed to be a "Full Screen" button for when theres a video playing there. There isn't such a button. But, maybe I was mistaken. At any rate, I start a movie. I click on it to bring it into a small seperate window, then click inside that for full screan, and...nothing. Just sound. No picture. So I shut iTunes down, tried again...and this time it worked. So I paused the movie, reduced the screen size, then went to full again ...nothing but black and sound. I set the preferences to "Full Screen". Again, sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't . I don't know if something is wrong here, or if I'm missing something.
I have Quicktime 7 pro, and it's all running on an AMD 3500+ (2.2 ghx) with Dual 6600GT SLI video cards (128mb of RAM each)with 2 GB of system RAM

to hilandzs and all if wanting to play videos, movies etc in itunes so that they FILL the screen , then go into system preferences - displays - resolution - and click on 1024 x 768 stretch ( i use 15.4 inch macbook pro and this works for me ) it may be another setting for other size monitors.
Or the media player VLC has an option were you can choose the aspect ratio and this will FILL the screen again for me it was 16:10 aspect but this may vary. The aspect ratio option in this player is Excellent and should be a standard feature on all players.

I can't play videos (youtube for example) unless it is in full screen mode. The audio works in either, but the video only shows in full screen. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I can't play videos (you tube for example) except in full screen mode. The audio works in either, but the video doesn't load or run in the normal you tube web site.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Also, the error console shows all sorts of different errors. Though, alot of error parsing values.

Do you have any Mail plug-ins? In particular, do you

This doesn’t make sense to me. You cannot tell a rule
to move messages to a smart mailbox, only to a normal
mailbox. Each smart mailbox has its own set of
conditions that messages must satisfy in order for
them to appear there.
OK. I misstated this. I have a number of Smart Mailboxes with their specific rules in which to route certain topics to specify mailboxes. I am trying to not have to create each Smart Mailbox on each computer.
The problem is that when I am on the road I add contacts, bookmarks, keychain items, contacts into my laptop and vice versa when home. I would just like to have those Sync on both computers. Seems like it should be easy, but it hasn't been.
I really don't think I have anything "non-standard." A few Smart Mailboxes, a couple of signatures, thats pretty much it.

My MacBook is brand new, shy of a month and I don't understand why it was recently started to lag whilst watching full screen videos on youtube? Somebody help me please...

Somebody help.. I don't get what's going on. This didn't happen in the beginning, it was completely fine with watching full screen videos, but now it seems to "glitch" now and then and appear slow and laggy. whattttt

If the computer seems normal except for watching youtube the problem is probably between you and your ISP or between the ISP and youtube. If your computer seems slow no matter what you are doing try restarting your computer and see if that helps. (If so pay attention to your Page Outs in the Activity Monitor and also how much free space your hard drive has.)

Why doesn't full screen video option work in Captivate 8?

Hi,
I have added videos to my Captivate project and have placed the Corona 2 skin on top.
When previewing or publishing there is a full screen icon button which can be clicked to make the video full screen. This is not working. When I clink on it, nothing happens. A hand cursor appears on hover over so I know it's clickable. What do I need to do to make this work?
I am using Captivate 8.01
Google Chrome
Thanks,
Dan

It work now.
I just downloaded OSX 10.9.3 and iTunes 11.2 and one or both of them has fixed the problem. (Been broken for years). Have fun

DPS Animation & Full Screen Video functionality failure when viewing mag in Adobe Content Viewer

HI There,
Specifically the following issues are occuring when we view the mag through the Adobe Content Viewer on our Ipad.
All Title animations are not functioning at all (although in the SWF viewer they are working fine)
Although we select the media to be played full screen when we are setting up the videos in the media panel they won't play full screen, but play perfectly well in the place we put them. - full screen doesnt function in the SWF viewer either.
The control bars to control playing, stopping, full screen etc also don't appear on our videos we selected. - doesn't function in the SWF viewer like it should with the control bars working
In terms of how we set everything up just to confirm we are doing it right.
For animations.
1. Select copy to animate
2. Click on Animations panel, chose the preset fade in, selected the time 1.25seconds, animate from current appearance, fade in.
For videos
Our videos are H264 Quicktime videos all 16x9 in ratio
1. Went to media panel.
2. Searched for file to insert
3. Inserted it and sized down the actual physical size of the video to fit in the space we wanted (NB we didn't create a rectangle to put them in or anything)
4. Chose the poster from file
5. Selected skin over play full screen & show controller over rollover
Any help to sort this out would be appreciated. Thanks so much in advance

Hi BellaMove:
For the animations:
You have to create a document with the size of the animation you want to create and give attributes using the animation panel of indesign.
Then you export to fla and using Adobe Wallaby pass it to HTML5.
Then place them by the panel Overlay Creator (Web Content). Using the Content Viewer can not see it on your desktop. You'll have to climb the publication in the ipad to see the result.
Do not forget to retouch the css. Read this:
http://digitalpublishing.tumblr.com/post/3898796141/animate-headlines-or-other-things
Is the simplest way to make simple animations I've found.
I hope you find it helps

Lenovo 3000 N200 0769 Vista 32bit video driver (NVidia) full screen video problem

Hi, would appreciate an update from Lenovo about this.
The NVidia VGA driver just displays a blank screen when playing video in full screen mode when hardware acceleration is turned on (the default setting). Obviously it's a pain to turn off the hardware acceleration just to get full screen video working.
There is a generic version of the driver available from Nvidia but they advise not to use it as the oem versions are apparently modified for features like turning the screen off when the lid is closed. Maybe someone's tried the generic NVidia driver and can let me know if it's worth a go. Ideally it would be nice to hear if Lenovo are aware of the problem and are going to release an update.
Thanks
Cliff

im not sure if this will help new to forum but hey here u go anyways scan through the guide about the suipport & downloads should have all ur info there

Mini-DVI to DVI - 1920x1080 full-screen video

Just bought a mini-DVI to DVI adapter to hook up my Mid-2006 MacBook to my Acer H223H 23" LCD screen. It works fabulously as expected, except when I try to watch full-screen video on the Acer LCD at 1920x1080. What's strange is that when I'm watching video in a window (using VLC), I can increase the size of the window until it almost takes up the whole screen, but then any further than that causes noticeable jerkiness (a lot of dropped frames) in the video playback. Any ideas what's going on here?
I hope this is the right forum for this and thanks in advance for helping me out!

Posted too soon before fully exploring the situation. A little more context: I'm running a fresh install of Snow Leopard.
I used the mini-DVI to DVI adapter and my LCD to hook up my girlfriend's laptop (MacBook running Leopard). Full screen video in VLC plays no problem (even used the same file). Also, I tried playing a DVD on my MacBook and it ran flawlessly. Clearly the issue is VLC's compatibility with Snow Leopard.
Thanks anyway - glad to know this community is here if I have any other issues.

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.

Bug? Menu Bar Not Accessible in Safari After Watching Full Screen Video

Hi everyone,
I have had this Not accessible menu bar problem time to time while using Safari, and I finally figured out what caused it. It always happens right after you go to a full screen video mode, and then get back out, and now when you move the mouse curser to the top, menu bar doesn't show. Then a way to fix is by using the 4 finger gesture to go back to the desktop screen, and come back to safari (not too fast) and menu bar is again accessible. Why is apple not fixing this bugs? I have seen more thread about menu bar gone, so it's not just me.

Hit the escape key to exit full screen.
That may be a "works as expected/designed," but once you've exited Full Screen View, then reenter Full Screen View and play a video in full screen mode, the window switches out of Full Screen to display the video in full screen video mode. It doesn't stay in Full Screen view, like it is the first time around.
EDIT:
Esc exits full screen video mode, but you still cannot access the slide-out menu bar with the button. Repeatedly pressing Esc does not exit Full Screen View, either. This only appears on the first invocation of Full Screen view and video mode. Once you exit Full Screen, the window behaves differently.
Note that we have determined this is only affected by HTML5 video. I have to do some more testing to figure out if it is ClickToPlugin that is causing the issue.
What's a good source for straight HTML5 video?

Slow graphics performance - login screen, launchpad, full screen video all stutter

Since installing Mavericks, I've found that several system animations are slow/stutter. This is on a 2012 MacBook Air with maxed out hardware specs so its not b/c I'm running an old system.
Some examples:
- When booting up, right before I reach the login screen, the display quickly flashes blue. This leads me to believe something funky is going on with my graphics card/drivers
- The login animation, where you click your username and it floats to the middle of the screen so you can type in your password, is very jerky, taking 2+ seconds to complete. Previously it had been fast and smooth
- When using Launchpad, expanding folders often takes several seconds. The folder will start to expand, freeze, and then finally finish. This tends to be more of a problem for folders with 1 row of icons. Large folders oddly seem to expand ok / smoothly
- Watching full screen video in iTunes causes the audio to stutter (the video playback is still smooth). If I make the window smaller, audio and video playback are smooth again
Is anyone else experiencing these kinds of graphics issues? Any idea whats going on or how to fix?

Quit Chrome and see whether there's any change. If not, see below.
Step 1
When you notice the problem, launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Activity Monitor in the icon grid.
Select the CPU tab of the Activity Monitor window.
Select All Processes from the View menu or the menu in the toolbar, if not already selected.
Click the heading of the % CPU column in the process table to sort the entries by CPU usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Also post the values for User, System, andIdle at the bottom of the window.
Select the Memory tab. What value is shown in the bottom part of the window for Swap used?
Next, select the Disk tab. Post the approximate values shown for Reads in/sec and Writes out/sec (not Reads in and Writes out.)
Step 2
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combinationcommand-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

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)
