Fullscreen on youtube

Hello,
I am using the flashplugin-beta from AUR (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=47230) and have no bigger problems so far. (despite slow playback in fullscreen mode on nfl gamepass).
However, if I want to watch a video on youtube in fullscreen mode the flash-plugin uses the entire screen, but does not rescale the video. The video is in the center (original size), but with a big black frame around it.
Do you experience the same issue?
Thx for any tips how to fix it!

...it happened to me in the past, but not anymore.
flashplugin 10.3.183.10
firefox 13.0.1
xorg-server 1.12.2
nvidia-drivers 295.53
Also, i override VDPAU_NVIDIA_NO_OVERLAY=1 just for the browser for stability issues
and /etc/adobe/mms.cfg is configured with EnableLinuxHWVideoDecode=1
My layout is a standard twinview spanned in Horizontal with both screens at 1280x1024,
GPU is 9600.
hope something will helps...

How did you made videos fullscreen on YouTube with adobe premiere elements 10?

Hello,
is there a way to made videos fullscreen on YouTube with adobe premiere elements 10?
Sorry for my poor english and thank you

The black bars are most commonly caused by having Source Footage, that does not match the Project's Frame Size.
This could be a pixel x pixel issue, with say 1280 x 720 Footage in a 1920 x 1080 Project, or it could be a difference in the Pixel Aspect Ratio. That is most common in SD material, between Standard 4:3 and Widescreen 16:9, but can happen with 1440 x 1080 Anamorphic, which does not use Square Pixels, or PAR = 1.0. With most other HD material and Projects, the PAR will more likely be 1.0, or Square Pixels. It could also stem from the Export/Share settings, having a different Aspect Ratio, i.e. pixels x pixels.
This ARTICLE addresses black bars in the Program Monitor.
Good luck,

[SOLVED] Opera + Flash = No Fullscreen on Youtube :/

Hi,
I've noticet that I can't force Opera to show Youtube content in fullscreen mode. I was talking to my mate who is using Ubuntu (with the same - latest - version of Opera 9.20 and the same Flash plugin 9.0r31) and he is using it just fine. Do you guys have the same problem? Or is it me ;P I was trying it on Beryl turned off and nothing changed. When I press fulscreen icon on youtube player the movie stops (keep loading thou) but nothing happens.
Any ideas?
SOLUTION: Ok for any one as dumb as I - the "Block unwanted pop-ups" option seem to block the Fullscreen videos, turn the option OFF or set the preferences for youtube page not to block the unwanted pop-ups. Strange that Opera is concidering the Fullscreen as "unwanted"
Sorry for making a 'big deal' about the whole problem
Peace.

Satellite P200-1EE not able to wacht videos in fullscreen on youtube

Hi guys,
Im confused as i have a brand new p200-iee for xmas and try to watch a video on youtube or for example bbci player but i either get just a black screen with sound or black and white diagonal screen with sound, i have dropped my resolution down from 1440x900 through all settings but no help?
DVD's play full screen fine, and i have d/l the newest flash player as i think this is the common link between sites
any help muchly appreciated!!!!
cheers

I do agree with it most likely to be a software issue, although when you watch vids from youtube are you straming them or do you download them. I can stream them in its small size but when i want the fullscreen option that's where this problem occurs.
This is the same for the bbc site, i have the latest flash player installed so my next step is codecs, but i would have thought u would need them for streaming??

Apple TV freezes videos stream as soon as it goes fullscreen on youtube...

Hi,
My Apple TV used to work fine until yesterday, it suddenly started to freeze the video stream on airplay mirroring using youtube and other streaming sites (both on tv and on my devices, I've used 2 different Iphones and an Ipad and it's all the same).
None of the rebooting, resetting, Airplay on/off solution has worked. Also tried restarting all my devices, my router etc...
It's connected to the internet via an ethernet cable so no wifi issues either.
It airplays the device screens ok and I can see my own photos or videos just fine but when I go to youtube or other video streaming sites (which is pretty much the only reason I USE it !) I can browse and choose my videos but as soon as I play them it goes on fullscreen mode and starts to buffer endlessly. Then the message "cannot play content, try again later" pops up and quickly disappears.
As soon as I stop Airplay though, the video resumes on my devices...
I think this happened after the last update...not sure though
Any ideas?

So there could indeed be wifi issues then.
Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.
The following article(s) may help you.
Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
Recommended Wi-Fi settings
Sources of Interference
Wifi Diagnostic Software (for Mac users)
You may also find some help on this page, where I’ve collected some of the more unusual solutions to network issues.

Mouse/Hand cursor won't go away in fullscreen on youtube videos (HTML5)

Hi there,
Sorry if this has been covered yet but I really couldn't find anything. Here's my issue: whenever I'm in watching a video on youtube using Safari 6 and I hit fullscreen, the mouse won't go away which is really annoying. I should mention that, by default, Youtube lanches HTML5 on Safari, whilste on Google Chrome it still uses Flash (we're talking about the EXACT same video!). Oddly enough, I don't experince this issue on Chrome.
Any guesses, tips or resolutions out there ?
Thanks a bunch !
Ric.

After upgrading to latest 10.2 Youtube no longer works in fullscreen

Hello.
After upgrading to the latest version of Flash, 10.2, I can no longer see videos fullscreen in YouTube because all I get is a blank screen.
I’m using Internet Explorer 8 with not toolbars installed. My antivirus is ESET Smart Security with the Windows default firewall enabled.
My graphics board is an Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500M
PS: I’ve uninstalled 10.2 and installed again 10.1 and the YouTube problem was no present. So we can conclude that the problem lies in fact in the 10.2 version of Flash player.

Hi, Before you Uninstalled 10.2, did you happen to update your video card driver? This has helped others that were experiencing this issue. The Adobe Flash Player Team are investigating this issue and trying to have Users document certain
info so they can duplicate the issue in house.
I don't know if you'd be interested in providing some information on your experience, but this is the site to do so.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/839/cpsid_83952.html#main_For_Windows_users
Part of the issue is the Technology for StageVideo, included with the latest FP version and the hardware acceleration. Updating the video card drivers and or turning off the hardware acceleration seems to solve it. However, documenting what is happening before and after is helpful to them.
Thanks,

Youtube doesnt go complete fullscreen in Mac OS X mountail lion.

When i try to go fullscreen for youtube videos, its trying to use Mountain lion's fullscreen feature instead of flash fullscreen, this make my videos stutter and looks really bad

Could you try disabling graphics hardware acceleration? Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
[[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
[[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]

Stop smooth fade when fullscreening youtube videos

Made this post on the macbook support forum, probably not the right place. Anyway, as I am sure many of you are familiar with whenever you fullscreen a youtube video on a mac using chrome it smoothly fades into the youtube video and smoothly fades out when you choose to exit chrome. This is very often slow and annoying. Is there any way to make the youtube video simply snap back to the desktop without the transitional effect? Thanks.

By using the request desktop site option in the menu.

X crash/exit: fullscreen YouTube, run xscreensaver-demo, armagetronad

X immediately crashes and exits whenever I try fullscreening a YouTube video, running xscreensaver-demo or the game armagetronad.
Hardware:

Could someone help me troubleshoot?

The thing is, my computer is a Dell Dimension 2400 with a Pentium4 2.66GHz and 1278724 kB of RAM. I have a triple boot set up with XP, Archlinux and Ubuntu Lucid on it and I have no problems running YouTube in fullscreen or running xscreensaver-demo or playing Armagetronad in Ubuntu and have no problems in XP either, so it's definitely not a hardware issue.

Cinnamon remove fullscreen titlebar

With various addons, settings and themes I cannot get rid of the damn titlebar in fullscreen applications like wine and some games (enemy territory).
Along with VLC fullscreen, Firefox YouTube fullscreen etc. are working fine.
On linuxmint etc. either noone seems to have these issues or doesn't care or there's a trick or workaround for this I don't know.
Am I the only one? Missing a setting or two?
Thx for help,
regards
JC

Hi!
Reproducable f.e. with (winetricks) 3DMark06
Some games work in (maybe real) fullscreen, some maximize a borderless window, but let a grey bar on top of the screen. Depending on game resolution even bigger/smaller.
Native (non-wine) Enemy Territory does the same btw. same issue with titlebar not hidden.
Currently using latest Cinnamon from official repos and nvidia 325.

Fullscreen on one monitor, while working on the other?

Mac Pro running Maverick OSX. When I go into fullscreen with youtube on one monitor, and click anywhere on my secondary monitor: Youtube exits fullscreen.
I've tested this with another machine running OSX Mountain Lion. With Mountain Lion I can have one monitor in fullscreen while working in the other monitor.
Is there a way to do this with mavericks?
My secondary monitor is a Cintiqu 13, I'm not sure if that makes a difference.

About the only thing you can do with Premiere is export out a sequence in the background while you continue working, then bring that back into Premiere and lay it down above the original sequence.
Of course, if you wish to continue working on the same sequence, this won't work.
Background rendering would be a very welcome addition to Premiere. Hell even Encore can do that.

Using fullscreen on my first monitor makes the other one gray

So when I go into fullscreen on my first monitor, the other one becomes gray (like the Mac OS X login screen, almost like this: http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2011/183/2/e/linen_desktop_shaded_by_tbg10101- d3ksrb5.png).
It happens when i click the http://gyazo.com/e9d8ec2ecff4828a8465368de564ebcb small 2 arrows button on the top right of the window, and it also happens when I open some fullscreen programs. The only things this doesn't happen on and I still can click on stuff and do stuff on the other screen is League of Legends, fullscreen on Video players in Google Chrome and Safari (like youtube.com, twitch.tv etc)... ( By the way when i go into fullscreen on youtube or twitch in Safari and i click on my second motor the Dock and a white list on the top comes up on the full screened monitor (the one with Safari), this is very annoying and should eb fixed.)
How can i fix this problem with the gray screen on second monitor tho? This problem kinda ruins the purpose why you should have a second monitor...
Thanks for the help

Hello Kladdy
Check the settings In System Preferences to make sure that Displays have separate Spaces and that should make it to where when you go full screen, it will not be a blank window.
