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.

  • Flash player freeze a lot when playing Youtube videos fullscreen from Linux, but plays ok from Windows (CPU: AMD APU)

    Flash player freeze a lot when playing Youtube videos fullscreen from Linux, but plays videos ok from Windows (CPU: AMD APU).
    When playing video in default size it's OK (windows and Linux), but when setting video in full screen, on Linux there's troubles: video is hashed (freeze every 3 seconds).

    Hi s, well congrats on getting your brother's computer up and running. On your system, you have all correct Flash Player
    files for IE and FF, as well as the SWO and SWF.
    Since the Install of Flash Player, have you installed any programs that would have added any ActiveX Controls, or any other add ons or plug-ins?
    Have you had an opportunity to see if your brother's computer has the issue you have when watching the same websites?
    Are you using any ad-block in FF(Firefox) or any pop up blocker software installed?  I can't imagine updating to FP version 10 alone would cause this.
    Is this happening only on the BBC website? Does what you watch come thru the BBC website or youtube directly?
    We have your brother's computer to use to determine what is going on. If he is able to see the BBC website and what you
    are having problems with, then we can rule out the website.
    Other browser add ons, anti-virus programs, etc. affect the browser. Even tho, no problem with vs 9. Sometimes updates
    can have an affect, even with Windows as we all know:-)
    Thanks,

  • Macbook Pro Dock doesn't disappear when watching a fullscreen youtube video?

    The Dock should hide itself after a few seconds when watching a full screen video but IT DOESN'T. It really is ******* me off, any answers?!?!

    When watching a video full screen make sure the cursor is no where near the bottom of screen, the Dock area.
    Double check your Dock settings.

  • Fan starts to make loud noise when watching youtube videos

    Hello there, I have been having a problem with my Macbook Pro for a while and I hope I can find some help here. My Macbook Pro has the problem that when I am watching youtube videos and I have the fullscreen option on, if the video is lasts, say more then 4 min or so, then after a while the fans start to kick in and they keep getting louder and louder for no reason.
    It also does this sometimes when I open the spotlight to search for something, although that hasnt happened as much lately. But this is really getting annoying, I mean, why would a simple video from youtube, make the mac go all crazy as if I was rendering or exporting video, its nuts. I have all the updates installed too.
    I also went to an Apple store, and of course when I try to show the person the issue I have, the macbook pro works just fine! Its somewhat random. I told the guy that I have Applecare and if they could just hold onto the machine and test it out themselfs and the guy tells me, that I have to pay THEM for this service if they dont find anything. What the? Is it my fault if the issue doesnt come up during their suposed testing time? What if they just dont do anything to it, and then say they dont find anything, and im suposed to pay for this even though I have Applecare? There must be something wrong.
    Anyway, I really appreciate any help and guidance I can get on this issue. Btw, my Macbook Pro is the second generation one, the one with Intel Duo Core 2, 2.33 ghz, 2 GB ram and the ATI video card. I also recently ran Disc Utility from the install disc and I repaired some issues on the HD, but its still the same.
    Thank you for reading and (hopefully) responding to this topic.

    Thank you for the replies. I have just downloaded the iStat Widget and I noticed that the fans were at about 2800-2900 rpm and the sound wasnt noticable, I then played a youtube video that lasts for 5 min, although already on the 1 min mark the fans were getting louder when running in full-screen mode. I then checked iStat and it peaked at around 5994 rpm. I then stopped the full screen viewing and it went back to 3000 rpm after a while, and now it seems to be locked at 2400 rpm.
    What I dont get is, why is it that when I play videos from my hard drive and watch movies, even in full screen mode, it doesnt get near 5990 rpm at any point, at least I dont notice any loud fan sounds. Although that has happened when I watched a HD video from my desktop that lasted about 6 min, but the fans didnt go as loud as right now.
    Also, a few days ago, I was playing a small flash game on the net, and I got the same problem with the fans as with the youtube videos. I read that youtube uses flash, is this right? Could there be something on this? I have downloaded the latest flash player version though, so I dont know whats going on.

  • No audio when playing YOUTUBE videos on ipod touch via a docking station

    Hi there, when my ipod touch is docked on its docking station, it will not play audio on youtube videos, it will play the video but not the audio through the docking station speaker. It used to play audio without problems before, but recently it has stopped. When i take the ipod touch off the docking station the audio on the youtube video returns. any ideas why this has happened? it plays the youtube audio through the head phones too, i can play all other audio through the docking station speakers with out a problem.

    There are no setting to change on the iPod.
    Have you updated either the firmware on the car or on the iPod since they last played in the car?
    This may work:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

  • Experiencing resolution glitches when watching Youtube videos. Screen will glitch out, strange shift in screen orientation, as well as total resolution failure. Any wisdom on how to overcome this?

    I have a Macbook Pro Early 2011, and am currently at 69 GB free on the 400 GB space. When I play Youtube Videos or visit websites which stream video, as well as when I run certain high graphics applications (games particularly), the resolution will just crash.
    I have read a bit about this online, and have found that it has to do with the CPU and GPU being under heavy load. I think it's a bit silly that the Macbook Pro can't handle a Youtube video, however, so I hope that I may be able to remedy the problem.
    Thanks for the help.

    Flash Player is 'embedded' into Chrome - and sometimes that's not a good thing. Right now Chrome has the largest market share in the browser wars, though, so I suppose they've some success with the embedding of the player.
    Personally, I use Firefox and have had no problems. Safari is good, I just prefer the support of Firefox (which doesn't work with some other Adobe plugin for inline PDF viewing, though).
    I don't know why you're having trouble with Chrome - it is very graphics intensive, I know, and has 'broken' in the past with some GPUs. I'd just make sure that you've the latest version of Chrome and if you still have problems, just use Safari or Firefox.

  • White spot appears in one corner of the screen when watching YouTube videos?

    Hello.  I have a fifth generation iPod Touch and when I watch YouTube videos, I notice a little white spot appear in only one corner on the screen.  It does not show up on the screen when I am using applications, just on YouTube.  Why is that happening?

    This solved my problem:
    In IE, go to Internet Options from the Tools drop down.
    Click on Advanced.
    Scroll down to Multimedia.
    Look for unchecked box for 'Play sounds in web page'
    Check the box.
    Get out of settings and IE altogether.
    Now try IE and see if it works.

  • Why does the volume spike when playing youtube videos? Even after i turned it down right before hand

    Okay so this is becoming highly annoying and extremely worrisome since I value my ears more than any other sense.  I keep having this issue where i plug headphones in, turn the volume down to half way or lower, put headphones on, then go to start a youtube video to listen to a song, and then as soon as the video starts BOOM the volume goes up to full blast.  on several occasions now i am worried i have been close to hurting my ears, I am really starting to loose my mind over this.  WHAT IS GOING ON? I try to remember to keep the headphones out of my ears before playing the video, but there are too many times where i forget, or had switched to sommething else and then go back just to be blasted by volume.  Jesus Christ apple you are going to wreck peoples ears. 
    I have the ipad air.  I have whatever the latest software is

    Hello rwright8
    If you are concerned about the volume going to high when watching and listening to videos, you can change the volume limit to not go that high. Go to Settings > Music > Volume Limit and set it to the desirable volume. If you are using the YouTube app from the App Store, try out the troubleshooting steps in the second article to troubleshoot the issue further.

  • IOS6... How do I see the full screen when watching youtube videos and second the map quality is very poor, foggy most of the time and images overlap to each other... Can I restore to IOS6 if these problems can not be solved?

    I just upgraded to IOS6 and I have some difficulties that I never had on IOS5:
    How can a see the full screen when watching youtube. Address bar is always in view.
    Maps are foggy and some images overlap to eachother.
    If these problems can not be solved, how do I downgrade back to IOS5?

    No, there is no legitimate way to downgrade iOS to an earlier version.
    Be patient, Apple will eventually get around to fixing the "bugs" in iOS 6.

  • Muse quits unexpectedly when embedding YouTube video

    Any time I try to embed a YouTube video into Adobe Muse CC, Muse will suddenly quit.  The program recently updated and I have tried both using the "Enable privacy-enhanced mode" and not using it as suggested in other posts but am still having the issue.  Any ideas of how to resolve this issue would be appreciated.

  • Fullscreen YouTube Videos Still Show Dock and Menubar?

    I'm using Safari 5.0.1 and OS X (10.6.4)
    Whenever I watch YouTube videos now, the menu bar and dock still show over the video.
    This was recently happening to me in the Firefox 4 Beta 2, but not Firefox 3.6.
    This is the first time I've seen this happen in Safari. The only extensions I have installed are:
    -Google Search Cleanup
    -Adblock Plus (I've disabled hiding ads in YouTube videos)
    -ClicktoFlash, which isn't actually a recognized extension. It is currently disabled, though.
    Can anyone help me with this?

    you can make it disappear by clicking the menu bar but it's not a solution rather a workaround, temporarily i hope.
    what is really strange for me was that:-
    1) it only started yesterday, and i did not make any changes nor install anything new
    2) it's still working fine in my other mac i.e. full screen with the dock disappear into the background
    but could it be adobe's flash issue? have googled there but found nothing on this.

  • Flashplugin freezes Firefox when making youtube video bigger.

    I'm having this weird problem where if I try to make a youtube video bigger it completely freezes my firefox session.
    http://i.imgur.com/MPKII.png
    I'm using firefox-nightly and libvdpau-git-flashpatch(necessary so I can enjoy videos without a blue tint). nvidia driver and flashplugin are from the repos.
    My /etc/adobe/mms.conf contains the following:
    EnableLinuxHWVideoDecode=1
    OverrideGPUValidation = 1

    The greatest feature (of many in firefox) is the use of extensions like: http://www.bestvideodownloader.com/
    you can install it for download any video in various formats and play it directly with your favorite video app.

  • What is causing a partial green screen when displaying (youtube) video (except fullscreen)?

    Hi there,
    Whenever I am watching any Youtube vids, the screen always seems like the colours are split up into a "green overlay" and the remaining colours are washed out. At the bottom of the video sits a green bar and the picture looks "double..."This is very anoying, and the problem does not happen when I use Chrome or Explorer (wich I actually do not want to use) The problem sometimes dissapears when I am watching in full screen mode
    No idea what is causing this...
    If needed I can upload a screenshot, but I am not sure how to do so here...
    Thanks for any advise that can lead to the solution...
    Cheers,
    Andy

    If you see a green square instead of the Flash player then the player failed to create an overlay and you only see the green placeholder.
    You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    You need close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.

    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/upgrade-graphics-drivers-use-hardware-acceleration
    You can also try to "disable the hardware acceleration" in the Flash Player.
