Unable to watch videos full screen

I used to be able to watch videos on my computer through itunes full screen, but lately when I put any video onto full screen, the entire screen is black and the video plays at actual size in the center. Is the new version broken, or is there something wrong with my computer? I am able to watch the videos full screen through quicktime.

I am still having this problem. I was hoping that the newest version of itunes would fix everything, but after downloading it this morning, it still plays my videos at normal ratio in full screen mode. Any suggestions of what I can do, or what happened to make it like this in the first place? Thanks.

  • OS Crashes with 2 monitors while watching video full screen... ?

    Hello Forum
    I just recently attached a second monitor to my Mac Pro (early 2009). I have only one video card. My setup is as follows:
    - miniDVI > 1920x1080 monitor
    - DVI > 1280x1024 monitor (connected through a DVI to VGA adaptor.. it's an old monitor...)
    The computer now crashes pretty regularly at least once a day. I notice that it always seems to crash when I watch netflix videos full screen on the 1920x1080 montior.
    Also I notice that the 3rd and the 4th slot of the RAM seems to have also pretty consistently ECC Errors... (I have 8 gigs of RAM) I don't know if that's normal? Are these two issues related? Also is there a way to fix /resolve the ECC errors other than just restarting the machine?
    Any insight would be much appreciated.
    Thank you
    Regards
    sk

    I have reinstalled the whole OS and am now running only Firefox, FCP, Adobe After Effects and Adobe Photoshop.
    I have switched back to the original Apple RAM (3 gigs) and use only one monitor. I have one Timemachine attached through firewire 800.
    It seemed to be going ok for 1 day and on the second day I get the same deadly greyed out screen that tells me to restart the computer.
    The strange thing it really crashes when I hardly use anything ram intensive, reading my email for example, or watching netflix videos. I can't seem to find a pattern.
    When restarting I get the following error message:
    (any idea where the issue lies?) Any insight much appreciated.
    Thank you for your time.

  • Can I watch a project's finished video full-screen without exporting?

    I wonder if I can manage my polished videos in FCP 7's projects and watch them in full screen mode just as I have done in Aperture 3 without having to export them first.

    You can watch them full screen using FCP's Digital Cinema Desktop mode ... under the View menu, choose Video Playback > "Digital Cinema Desktop Preview - Main" ... and then press Cmd-F12 (keyboard shortcut for View menu > External Video > All Frames)
    Press the spacebar to start/stop playback (same transport controls as usual) and then press Esacpe (or Cmd-F12 again) to toggle turn it off.
    Note that this mode is not offering a broadcast quality preview, but just a reasonably good fullscreen proxy of one.

  • My .MP4 video file won't "play video full screen" in Muse after I publish my .OAM out of Edge Animate.

    My .MP4 video file won't "play video full screen" in Muse after I publish my .OAM out of Edge Animate.  When I "Preview In Browser" through Edge it plays (I have created a shape and used the "play video full screen" snippet)  in full screen mode just fine.  When I "Preview Site In Browser" through Muse and click on the shape to PLAY VIDEO FULL SCREEN, it does nothing.  I am new to both programs and can't figure out why it will work out of the preview window in Edge and won't work when I publish to Muse.  Does anybody have an answer or a work-around for me?

  • Why doesthe start menu stays on and gets in the way of controls when viewing a video full screen?

    Since I updated my firefox when ever I try to watch a youtube or other video full screen my start menu stays up at the bottom of the page and gets in the way preventing me from adjusting the volume or finding a specific spot in the video without first downsizing the video using the ESC key. Why is this? It does not happen when I use Internet Explorer.

    You can check the settings of the Windows Taskbar via the right-click context menu and make sure that it isn't set to always show on top.

  • How to avoid pop up appearing in the screen middle top when playing video full-screen ?

    I created a landing page with embedded video hosted on Vimeo. When I click to play the video full-screen there's always a pop up window in the middle top saying the meaning like Vimeo is playing full-screen, press escape to get out of it. I don't want that pop up from appearing, I am wondering if any code I can put on the embedded video to prevent the pop up ? Thank you very much.

    No, as a web developer, you can't tamper with that message. The point is to prevent a situation where the user is trapped in full screen, as would happen if full screen is initiated by the page and the page doesn't provide controls to exit full screen.
    If users trust the site in question, they can check the "Never ask me again for this domain" checkbox to avoid the message in the future.
    Users can also get rid of all such messages altogether:

    If you don't want to install an add-on, you can use the ''userChrome.css'' file instead, but I don't recommend it. In that file, the first line of the style should only appear once at the top.

Please can anyone help with this issue or let me know how to fix it if experienced the same problem?

    Remove all apps from multitasking bar. Double click Home button then tap and hold an icon and tap on little x on every app. Then reset. Hold down Home and Power button until Apple logo appears.

  • E71 photo zoom, full screen & video full screen sh...

    anyone know any short key for this? my old nokia 6630 can zoom photo with pressing key #5. full screen photo with key *key, video full screen with pressing key #2. does E71 have these short key?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    In E71 photo viewer you can zoom in with 5, zoom out with 0 and toggle fullscreen with #. 2, 4, 6 and 8 scroll the image when zoomed in.
    However, you need to press the function key simultaneously in order to access the numbers, which makes these shortcuts a little less handy

  • Cannot play video full screen.

    When i try to play any kind of video full screen with iTunes, it "Unexpectedly quits". Its very annoying and is slow. I have erased all of my Library files as well as iTunes preferences and reinstalled. Still its happening. How do I fix this?

    hmmm... What resolution settings do you have set? What type of video are you trying to view? Is it a purchased ITMS video?
    Sounds strange.

  • Watching YouTube video full screen while working in other monitor

    So after upgrading to Mavericks when I have a Chrome browser window with a youtube vidoe loaded and I click to watch fullscreen my other monitor is taken over with a grayed out background. Quicktime started doing this awhile back, and Vimeo used to do it in Mountain Lion when it was embeded in another site, but if I went to Vimeo.com to watch a video this didn't happen. How do I change this?
    FYI, I have all Mission Control / Spaces options unchecked as I don't use that and don't want multiple Menu bars and whatnot.

    Hi, I just re-read you previous post.
    You said,
    Im using Google Chrome latest version and my mac is a mid 2011 mac book pro running max os x 10.8.5
    I presumed that you were using OS X 10.9.x as we are in the Mavericks (10.9) forum area, not the Mountain Lion (10.8) forum area.
    This changes things a little.
    In Mountain Lion, Apple's implementation for multiple displays is a little different to Mavericks, where both displays share the same 'space' so it is an extended display setup. Mavericks allows each display to have its own space, thereby allowing each dislay to act independantly of each other. This is where I did my brief test.
    Due to Mountain Lion's limitation, I think what you are seing is expected behaviour. Any Full Screen app will result in the other display to be greyed out.

  • Why is there no button option for me to view videos full screen?

    All videos I watch in Firefox don't have a option for me to click to make full screen. I have to zoom in to view it bigger and that is all I can do. I have a Barnes and Nobel Nook HD+ that has cyanogenmod10.1 running jellybean. Thank you!

    Hi:
    Please understand that Firefox is NOT available for all the mobile devices as of now and thus it might not run properly on the devices not in the given list below

  • ITunes 10.6 crashes when trying to play video full screen

    I haven't seen this particular issue among others' comments so…
    When switching from the normal video window to full screen while watching a podcast in my iTunes library, the program immediately crashes.  I've tried several different podcast, starting with the smaller video window, then trying to expand using the opposing diagonal arrows symbol in the bottom right corner.  The result has been the same.  As soon as I click on that the window screen goes black, and iTunes shuts down.
    I'm on a MacBook Pro 4,1 using OS 10.6.8 and iTunes 10.6 (40).
    Meanwhile, hope someone is working on the problem with the clickable scroll bars being inoperable.

    Do you have any better luck with that if you update to iTunes 10.6.1.7?
    From the notes for the release:
    iTunes 10.6.1 provides a number of improvements, including:
    • Fixes several issues that may cause iTunes to unexpectedly quit while playing videos, changing artwork size in Grid view and syncing photos to devices.
    • Addresses an issue where some iTunes interface elements are incorrectly described by VoiceOver and WindowEyes.
    • Fixes a problem where iTunes may become unresponsive while syncing iPod nano or iPod shuffle.
    • Resolves an ordering problem while browsing TV episodes in your iTunes library on Apple TV.

  • I can not see the videos full screen. The videos are limited to a part of the screen.

    I use sites like dailymotion,com to watch some Indian videos. I can not make it full screen. It shows with black bands on both sides of the screen, showing short images. How can I see it full screen? Thanks

    What video card/graphics card does your computer use? If NVIDIA GeForce, then that is within 99.999% certainty your issue here.
    There is a known serious issue specifically with Premiere Elements 10 on a computer that uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card/graphics card.
    The answer has been to roll back the driver version to about May 2013. This specific issue has not been reported for Premiere Elements 11, 12, or 13/NVIDIA GeForce.
    Please refer to Announcement on this at the top of this forum. Also, see
    ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE10: NVIDIA Video Card Driver Roll Back
    If your computer is not Windows 8 or 8.1 64 bit, then you should be able to find the older driver at
    NVIDIA Driver Downloads - Advanced Search
    If your computer is Windows 8 or 8.1 64 bit, the fix is not going to be possible since the available NVIDIA GeForce
    driver versions do not go back far enough.
    So, before all else, please determine if this issue applies to you and then we can decide what next if it does not.
    If any questions or need clarification on the above, please do not hesitate to ask.
    Thank you.
