Full screen YouTube videos halts MBP

When watching a YouTube video, going to full screen mode causes the machine to halt. MBP (late 2008, 2 Gb 2.4 Ghz dual core processor.) This happens in both Safari and Firefox. The display will go full screen, but the image is momentarily forzen, then the processor clicks off as though the power button had been held down for a few seconds. Playing videos full screen in Quicktime works just fine as does full screen presentation in Keynote and PowerPoint.
Restarting does not bring up a report-to-Apple window or other indication that an error had been detected or noted.

OK, I turned off all extensions, restarted Safari, the problem is still there.
I tried different videos and found that some work fine, others don't. So the issue must be something that is related to the type of video that is being played. Here's a YouTube video that has a problem in full screen mode . . . . it's the trailer for "Here Comes The Boom"

Monitor is blank white when trying to view full screen youtube video.

''locking as a duplicate - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/783757''
I have an HP w2207h widescreen flat-panel Monitor. When I try to view videos ONLINE, such as YouTube, in full screen mode, the screen goes to a blank white screen. Audio works, no picture. However, when I view the same YouTube video in Internet Explorer everything works fine. Is there a setting I need to put in to fix this? Would appreciate your help!

Try to disable the hardware acceleration in the Flash Player.

Photos on Facebook are all black, likewise full screen Youtube videos.

When I click on a Facebook photo, it quickly shows a full size blurry sketch, then turns all black. I can watch Youtube videos small, but when I make them full screen, they are all black.
Without first uninstalling Firefox, I downloaded Firefox and installed it again. It didn't improve the situation.

Try to disable hardware acceleration.
*Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.

I have a new Macbook Pro. When watching Youtube videos, it works perfectly until I attempt to watch the video in full screen. When in full screen, the video freezes immediately and the audio continues. When minimized it works fine as before. Help?

I have a brand new Macbook model A1502. I am taking online college classes that incorporate youtube tutorial videos. I can watch the videos if I don't maximize the screen to full screen. When in full screen, the video freezes immediately and the audio continues uninterrupted. I can press escape and go back to the previous screen and the video continues to play with no problems. Can anyone help me please? This machine is literally just out of the box with maybe an hour of use. Thanks in advance

First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
Reset the System Management Controller.
If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
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.

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

IPad won't full screen on videos

Firefox kills aero in Win 7 when playinf full screen flash videos.

I have recently installed nvidia 3d vision on my compoter. now when I click on a fullscreen button when watching flash videos like YT, the aero effect in Win 7 is disabled and does no return untill I turn FF off. FF4 and 3.6 has the same problem. Everything is OK in other browsers. I tried to disable the 3d vision plugins but it does not help.

Try to disable the hardware acceleration in the Flash Player.

Mouse back/forward buttons don't respond after exiting from full screen Flash video

Yeah. Has anyone else encountered this? After viewing a full
screen video (YouTube, Hulu) and exiting (via the ESC button), the
back and foward buttons on my mouse stop responding. Really!
Usually I will have to go back into a full-screen video twice for
the buttons to get "stuck," and then it takes them several minutes
to regain their functionality.
I've had this going on for over a year now, and I'm finally
sick of it enough to where I want to get some help. I've narrowed
it down to the Flash player as being the culprit, and it happens on
every browser I've tried it on (Firefox 3: RC2, RC1, Beta5; Firefox
2; IE7; IE6; Safari 3.x). This started happening when I upgraded
the Flash Player and the first offending version would be the one
that introduced the current full screen Flash video technology. I'm
guessing it was 9.0.
I have a Logitech MediaPlay wireless mouse, Win XP SP2. I
have the latest version of Flash and the most up-to-date mouse
drivers.

I have the same exact problem, only a different model
Logitech. Have you found a solution? Thanks, Shawn.

I would like to use slideshow in lightroom to export my video as a full screen 1920x1080 video with text overlays. I am using text overlay in lightroom as it reads from the metadata that is easy for me to input in the library screen. When i export from lightroom slideshow and choose the 1920x1080 resolution the end product is a very small video in the middle of a black background. i have double checked and do not have any borders turned on. Another option would be to export from the library but lr mogrify does not seem to put text overlays on video either. Any input would be welcome.

I dont understand anything you said in your post.
Do you have a specific question about video production?
The forums are for individual technical or creative issues that users have with video production. I am sur someone will be able to help you, but and to get a response it is best to ask a specific question.
Is this about a technical problem you have or something about setting up a web site? If its the latter this is the wrong forum.

Flash video in Full Screen, missing video controls

In the latest version of firefox 17, when i switch flash videos to full screen, the video doesnt show the video controls, which allow you to play/ pause the video or see how much time of the video has gone. It is there when i press back and return to the minimized version.. but for some videos when you minimize after full screen the video starts showing several colours instead of the video.

Update, This issue is still happening in the latest version of Firefox for android. Please check it up.

Is there a solution yet to no full screen music videos in os7?

Is there a solution yet to no full screen music videos in os7?

I've been told by Verizon business team that Sumsung and Verizon are working on a fix. Of course, that could be one month or 12 months.
My wife and I have a Samsung S3 and Note II and both, on Jelly Bean have the same flaw. It's very frustrating. I carry with me an unlocked HTC and also Verizon Incredible 2. Since SIM Data plans are cheap enough in most countries, I just get additional SIM cards with a data plan and turn on the hotspot feature of these devices with I access from the S3 and NOTE II. Not ideal, but close enough for now.
In the UK, I am hoping the LTE capabilities will work (VodaFone UK is imminent).

So what the likely cause was the Rotation Lock was on, when you restart the phone it goes back to off.
BB doesn't really "support" them, but you can easily sideload an android app on the blackberry yes. In the new 10.2.1 OS, which isn't released yet, they have changed some stuff around and you can load the apk files directly on the blackberry. However, now you will need to sideload the apps, just google search "sideload android apps on blackberry" and a number of articles will come up about it.

Unable to reproduce youtube videos on MBP Retina

I'm unable to reproduce YouTube videos on my MBP Retina running Mac OS X 10.8.4. I have installed the most recent Flash Player version (11.8.800.94). Any suggestions on how to fix this problem?

Pause button seems to show up after touching the screen once, you have to touch again to get the video to pause.

Firefox for Mac: accidentally disabled full screen Flash video for Yahoo. How to reenable??

I was looking at a video on screen.yahoo.com, and that annoying "Now entering full screen... allow/don't allow" (paraphrasing) dialog came up at the top. I must have inadvertently selected the option to disable, because now when I click the fullscreen icon at the lower right part of the video, nothing happens at all. No full screen, no annoying dialog. Nothing.
As per other posts on this forum from people who have had this problem, I have tried the following:
• Deleted ALL Flash Player settings in my Mac's System Preferences
• Gone to about:permissions in Firefox and set Fullscreen to ALLOW for all Yahoo URLs
• Deleted all COOKIES for domain yahoo.com
I have also quit and rebooted Firefox after having done these things. Alas, I go back to the video on screen.yahoo.com, click the fullscreen icon in the video frame, and still get nothing.
I'm stumped. This seems to be a heavy price to pay for accidentally clicking the wrong button one time. Sort of a Zero Tolerance Policy approach to video settings... Any other ideas about how I can restore this functionality??
Thanks!
DM

You can hover the image.
That should make a delete X appear.
You can inspect and manage permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab via these steps:
*Click the "[[Site Identity Button|Site Identity Button]]" (globe/padlock) on the location/address bar
*Click "More Information" to open "Tools > Page Info" with the Security tab selected
*Go to the Permissions tab (Tools > Page Info > Permissions) to check the permissions for the domain in the currently selected tab
