Open movies in quicktime full screen by default

I've got a question regarding quicktime pro for windows: is it possible to launch movies in full screen by default?
The thing is that the movies will be shown on a video wall. The actual computer that is connected to the video wall is mounted directly behind it, a few meters above the ground, and cannot be used as a work station. Therefore, any changes to the media files playing on the video wall are made from another pc via Remote Desktop Connection: transfer a new media file to the start up folder and then reboot the (video wall) computer. This is why it is necessary that movies open in full screen by default. Is it possible?
Thanks!

Thank you so much! I never thought of changing the movie itself - I only tried to change the player settings...

Automatically open movies in Quicktime Full Screen

I know that if I open a movie file in Quicktime I can go to to:
window/show movie properties/presentation/enter full screen mode when opened
& then the movie will start on full screen when i play it. But how can i avoid this step if i want all movies to play on full screen by default ? How can i edit Quicktime to open full screen every movie?
Can i enter a command on terminal and it will do the trick? or a script? automator?
thanks for any ideas or comments ; ) i really hate to do an extra step.

Limnos, thanks for your reply ; ) On VLC you go to preferences, choose full screen as default and voila, from now on movie files will open full screen. I am sure there is a way to make full screen the default view option on Quicktime but until now I can't still find it : (
ps. I know is command+F but lets be minimalist, if you don't need this another step, lets avoid it ; ) -as i said on vlc you cant avoid it. I know Steve dislikes extra steps if unnecessary, i also do ^_-

Making apps open in full screen by default WITHOUT resume enabled.

Hi guys,
I love using apps in full screen on Lion and would like to have all apps capable of it open in full screen by default. Unfortunately I've found the only way to do this is to have resume enabled which I really don't like as I find it annoying having to exit out of whatever document I was using last whenever word/acrobat etc. open. Also don't want what I have been browsing on Safari previously to be seen. I have read from other users in the discussions and in other forums that Lion should remember if you have exited an app while in full screen and will re-open in full screen. Unfortunately this is not the case for me as I am having to click my apps in to full screen each time I open them. Does anyone know if there is some sort of preference file I can clear to get this functionality?
Thanks

"How does one choose what player to use when , once saved to desktop, they all seem to open the file regardless of the type extension (.ave , .wmv and so on)?"
You can select a "default" player to open a specific file by following the instructions in #2 of my previous post.
Just make sure whichever player you download is for the Intel Mac.
"For instance , say you`re in a forum and there`e is a "hey , look at this...' type of thing. The "look at this" being an attachment of some sort."
This involves your "browser" plug-ins. Assuming you are using QuickTime, this is done through QuickTime MIME Settings.
Quicktime>Quicktime Player Preferences>Advanced
Click on the MIME Settings button.
Some browsers have their own default player plug-ins that can override QuickTime when you make a player selection on certain website. For instance: Realplayer opens .rm files. QuickTime cannot open .rm files.
In the next window that opens up make sure that Streaming-Streaming movies is enabled (checked).
While you’re at it make sure all the boxes are enabled by clicking on the corresponding triangles so that they are pointed down.
This will show the “hidden” boxes.
Click the OK button.
I would restart just to be on the safe side.
=========================
Sorry, I am not familiar with Intel Macs. Suggest that if you have any concerns besides QuickTime, you may wish to cross-post in the Intel-based iMac Forums where knowledgeable users using the same model computer as yourself hang out.
Maybe it would be easier if you would advise the type of player(s) you are interested in? I am assuming QuickTime since you posted in its forum. Are you having an issue making QT your default player?

How Can I set QT to open ALL files in Full Screen Automatically?

Am I missing something obvious here, or is this a major option missing in preferences of QT? I know that you can set this option for EACH movie in the Presentation tab in the movie's Properties, but I have 1000's of clips on my computer. I just want EVERY movie to automatically open up in full screen mode. This seems like it should be an obvious universal option for QT rather than handled individually for each file (with the option to over ride it per file if you wish for some reason).
Plus setting the option per file is not even practical, because in order to save that option in a file that is not .mov file QT wants to convert it to .mov and save copy of the file...

I am still pretty sure, say 95%, (do not recall perfectly - to many things on my mind... hihi) that the settings in Quicktime in the Preferences DID work before.
QT Player "Preference" settings only control how the content is displayed in the "Full Screen" mode -- not how it is activated. Pop-up options include:
1) Half Size,
2) Actual Size,
3) Double Size,
4) Fit to Screen,
5) Fill Screen,
6) Panoramic, or
7) Current Size
The options are available individually for "widescreen", "standard", or "other" aspect movie formats. The only other method of I can think of using the QT Player to automatically open in the the "Full Screen" presentation mode would be using a QTL file linked to your original source file but it setting the "Full Screen" option is "boring" for you, then creating QTL files would be even more so.

Did Itunes11 remove the preference setting to play videos in full screen by default? How to set this way?

In the past I believe Itunes had a preference setting to play music videos, movies, etc., full screen by default; that is my preferred approach.
Now, my videos will play a full screen but with the itunes menu at the top. I must hit the "double arrow" thing once the video starts playing to go true full screen.
In the past I think this was under preferences, playback but it looks like that option has been removed, reducing the amount of control the user has over video playback.
Is this accurate? Any way to change this back to the user choice? Want to make sure I haven't missed anything in my reseach.
Thanks.

You find different recipies on the net, adding all sorts of 'suffixes' (suffices?) to an existing yt-URL, example
https://youtu.be/2zfqw8nhUwAQVQ=HD1080
… the last part VQ=HD1080 should 'force' a fullHD playback.
And it doesn't
What Phil said:
YT checks the connection and offers the 'best' quality based upon that.
You would be surprised, how many folks don't know, what this tiny button in the YTplayer means.....

Safari in full screen by default

Hi.
Subject line says it all. When I start sfari by clicking on a link in anouther application like Mail, I'd like it to start in full screen mode instead of in the window by default. Can this be done?
Thanks,
Tom S.

The easiest way, I think, is to have Safari open already in full-screen mode because the link should then open as a new tab in the full-screen Safari. There is no user-accessible preference for Safari to enable full-screen by default but there might be one hidden in the PLIST file for it. Generally, you'll want Xcode Developer Tools downloaded from the Mac App Store so that you get access to the PLIST Editor so that you can both browse and tweak the PLIST file (~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.safari.plist). This is a relatively advanced topic and hacking PLIST files can lead to problems. I'd have a look myself but I'm over my broadband limit this month and Xcode is almost 3GB.

When the user clicks on the appraisal document name, a seperate window(not full screen) is generated to display the Appraisal docuemnt.
The code is as follows:
COMP: HAP_START_PAGE_POWL_UI
Object : COMPONENTCONTROLLER
Method: FOLLOWUP_POWL
Generate the URL to be called.
    CALL METHOD cl_wd_utilities=>construct_wd_url
      EXPORTING

           it_business_parameter    = lt_business_param    ).
    lr_fpm_navigation->navigate( lv_key ).
Any idea how to open this window in full screen?
Highly appreciate your help.
Thank and Regards
Pramod

Hi Pramod,
This FPM navigation is achieved using settings made in Launchapd Customizing ( LPD_CUST ).
a) Execute Tran LPD_CUST
b) Go to Role HAP - Double Click to open it.
c) Open the second folder on the LHS menu - there you will find 2 entries
d) Click on second entry - in the entry setting you can see that it is configured for WD Application - HAP_MAIN_DOCUMENT
e) Click on button Show Advanced Parameters
f) There you will find a input box named as Window Features - here you can specify window features like
height=700,width=1100,position=center,menu=no,status=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,toolbar=no
save the settings come out and test ur app again.
change the height and width and other features as per ur req.

Yesterday i bought ipad4 i transfered photos from pc to ipad that it opened in ipad when i click slideshow everything went black. whenever i m opening the application(photos) full screen looking black but all photos are occuping memory.

yesterday i bought ipad4 i transfered photos from pc to ipad that it opened in ipad when i click slideshow everything went black. whenever i m opening the application(photos) full screen looking black but all photos are occuping memory.i can see the pictures in settings>brightness>wallpapers but i couldnt able to see in photos application in ipad4

I have several thousand photos in several folders. I have noticed that whenever I want to change the folder used as the side show source, it takes the Screen Saver Preference pane a very long time to respond. It is as if it is scanning all the photos in the currently assigned folder in order to display them in the preview window provided, and it gets so dogged down doing that it can't respond to my clicks on the Choose Folder option.
Assuming you don't want to redistribute your photos into a greater number of folders or subfolders so there would be fewer in each folder to process, you could try a workaround. Try moving your currently-assigned folder to your desktop temporarily, before opening the Screen Saver preference pane. If the preference pane can't find the old folder, it may immediately ask you to choose a new one. You could hopefully then do so, close the preference pane, and then put back the old folder.
It's my understanding that there will be no future updates to Tiger, only security fixes.

I cannot open youtube videos to full screen after downloading the latest version of flash. HELP

I cannot open youtube videos to full screen after updateding flash to the latest version (11. something) HELP! youtube says it is adobe's problem

To help troubleshoot we'll need the following system information:
Operating   system
Browser
Flash   Player version
When reporting issues with video or audio, it's also helpful to get your system hardware and driver details. Instructions for finding this information can be found here:
Windows
Mac
Finally, sometimes video and audio problems are caused at a lower level and not directly related to Flash Player. I recommend trying both of the links below to see how they perform. If the problem exists with both, then Flash Player is most likely not the culprit as the HTML5 video link does not use Flash Player when playing. You can verify the use of HTML5 by right clicking the HTML5 video and looking for the words "About HTML5" at the bottom of the context menu.
HTML5   video
Non-HTML5 video

Opening a .mov file in full screen and loop

We have a .mov file that we need to automatically play full screen and loop in quicktime when the cumputer starts up. I can get the file to open, that was easy, but I can see know way to set quicktime to open in full screen or to set the file to loop. Any suggestions?
thanks

Any help to increase the resolution quality of my DV file will be EXTREMELY HELPFUL.
For faster editing iMovie 08 & 09 uses single-field processing. This means every other horizontal line of the video is thrown out, which reduces the sharpness of the footage. iMovie 06 uses all of the image, I think you will find it looks better.
iMovie 06 and iDVD 09 is a terrific combination.

Open Safari in full screen by default?

Is there any way to set Safari to open full screen? Mail, iTunes etc all open full screen, just safari seems to open in a small window, I know its easy to click the expand button, would be just nice to set it as default.

I found that if you quit Safari (while being in Full-Screen mode) with cmd-alt-q instead of cmd-q it opens in Full-Screen, but you have to remember to always close it with cmd-alt-q
I'm on Mavericks
Edit: It opens also the last website you have opened, sadly... it is like the option to "close windows when quitting applications" but only for Safari.

Opening pictures full screen as default

I'm using Photoshop Elements 4.0 and here's what I'd like to do. When someone sends me a picture via email, I'd like to automatically open it full screen and view it. As it is, photoshop always opens it in editor mode. Is this possible and if so, how? Thanks, Adrian

Adrian,
I suggest that you change the file association so that the files sent to you via e-mail will open in Window> Picture and Fax Viewer.
To do this:
1. Right click on a JPEG file, such as one sent to you
2. Select>Open with>Choose program, then scroll down to Win & Fax viewer
3. At the bottom of the dialog check the box to always use the selected program to open this kind of file.

I want to open a form in IE with full screen mode . Is it possible ?
Plz guide ....
Thanks

why do not u wanna use URL for that? ok open Formsweb.cfg in notepad and modify the URL section.
# Example Named Configuration Section
# Example 1: configuration to run forms in a separate browser window with
# "generic" look and feel (include "config=sepwin" in the URL)
# You may define your own specific, named configurations (sets of parameters)

# Note that you need only specify the parameters you want to change. The
# default values (defined above) will be used for all other parameters.
# Use of a specific configuration can be requested by including the text
# "config=<your_config_name>" in the query string of the URL used to run

Don't want DW6 to open new documents in Full Screen? How can I do this?

I have read a few posts and there doesn't seem to be an answer yet. Thought I'd bring this to the forefront and see if anything new has been discovered.
When I open my first html document it always opens in Full Screen, which is huge (wide), covering everything else on my desktop (which I use in conjuction with DW). I have to find the tiny little bottom lower right corner (usually close to and almost hidden by the Dock) and drag the window to a workable size. Obviously a new html page is never the width of the full wide screen, so why does DW assume this is a workable size? We all use the Abode products because they work together with each other, which are usually open and working on your desktop as well. Someone at Adobe didn't think this out!

No Nancy, everything opens just fine, the issue is the document window opens up full-screen behind everything (all my panels are there on top). The window is obviously upworkable until I scale it to fit in the rest of my viewable space. An html page is centered in this wide-screen upon opening, effectively being partially covered with tabs and panels. The outside space that the full screen window takes up is nothing but a solid color, covering useful space where I want to see my panels, some desktop for other apps if I wish etc. So effectively I have to resize the full screen window down, to the edges of the "workable" html designated space, which is all I need to see. Not 8" of a blank, useless window on each side, covering everything else. I would assume most of us web designers are using and viewing other apps, windows etc. on their desktop at the same time. If nothing else you can't even work on the html page until you resize it i order to see the panels which cover it. In PS for instance once you size a document window the program remembers the size on your screen and position where it opened last.
