Using Chrome beta, fullscreen flash videos not fullscreening Chrome

└─> yinfo google-chrome-beta
Name : google-chrome-beta
Version : 24.0.1312.35-1
Some recent update seems to have done this: http://i.imgur.com/IspAE.png Hitting fullscreen on a flash video will make it fullscreen within Chrome, but Chrome stays windowed, resulting in video cut off at bottom and also, Youtube doesn't auto-720p+ when hitting fullscreen on the video as it's still registering it being in windowed mode I think.
If I hit F11 first, then fullscreen the video, it's fine, but I'd like to have it back to auto-fullscreen. (In my settings>privacy>content settings>fullscreen, I do have youtube.com allowed as an exception). Also I opted out of the HTML5 trial on Youtube, and this affects all flash whether youtube, twitch, etc. Thanks for any help!

Have you tried downgrading libxcursor?

Try adding

That still seems to work for me. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=117875

Choppy Fullscreen flash video

Hello,
I have a late 2012 21.5 inch base model iMac. And for some time now flash video has been choppy in fullscreen in both Google Chrome and Safari. It wasn't always so, when I bought the iMac last year in December it was working fine.
I tried reinstalling the flash player plugin but with no effect. Sometimes fullscreen video works fine, other times it is not. Sometimes putting chrome in fullscreen mode then making the video fullscreen improves performance, sometimes it does not.
I also have Windows 7 in Boot Camp and fullscreen flash videos (like youtube) work flawlessly all the time.
I checked the forums for different solutions, none work. One idea was to make sure that the dedicated graphics card is actually working and not the integrated one, but the new iMac does not even have an integrated card, just the dedicated one.
I have no overheating problems and as far as I can tell only flash video has a problem.
Anyone know how to fix this?

I also found a solution that works for me. I completley uninstalled Flash from my Mac. I couldn't happier with the results. My Macbook Pro Battery life is more than doubled, It is no longer ever too hot place on my lap. My fan/s almost never come on anymore.
I use Safari as my main browser. Most sites detect my lack of Flash and convert video and adds to HTML just fine. Netflix works fine on it since it works off Siverlight. If I do need to visit a sight that requires Flash, (hulu) I just open it in Chrome which has Flash built into it. Visiting Flash sites on Chrome by the way is the only time my Mac gets hot and requires the fans to come on. Best fix I've ever done for my Mac. Litterally everything I do or run my Mac is faster and smoother. I no longer have sticking or spinning balls waits while flash decides if it needs to be working for this for whatever process or app I'm trying to use. Life on my Mac has been grand since Flash got the boot.

[Solved] On fullscreen flash videos (like on YouTube) there is a black bar on the right side of the screen, and I must click slightly to the right of onscreen buttons instead of directly on them while this is happening.

On fullscreen flash videos (like on YouTube) there is a black bar on the right side of the screen, and I must click slightly to the right of onscreen buttons instead of directly on them while this is happening. It's like I should click where they should be, not where they are. The exact same problem happens on Google Chrome, but not on Internet Explorer. It also happens on some games I installed like, "Crysis".

Nevermind, I solved the problem by downloading this:

FF7 / Windown 7 Taskbar floats above fullscreen Flash video

Since upgading to FF7, the Windows 7 taksbar floats above fullscreen Flash video.
I've updated to FF 7.01, updated the Flash player to 10.3.183.10, disabled all other plugins and extensions, and the problem persists.
For the moment, I have to autohide the taksbar in Windows when watching fullscreen video.
Happens on YouTube and Vimeo and all other video sites I've tested.

Found a fix. It was something to do with my DPI settings in Windows.
corduroy1979 says:
'''Right click on your Firefox icon (not the one in your task bar), if it's not on your desktop, find it in the Mozilla Firefox program folder.
After right clicking, select Properties, then the Compatibility tab, then check the box that says Disable display scaling on high DPI settings.
That's it. I'm now back to using 200% DPI and have no problems with fullscreen videos. What a pain in the ass! '''

Choppy fullscreen flash video playback

When I enter fullscreen in many flash videos, the videos get choppy. This is true across different browsers. It happens on different web sites, but not with the exact same symptoms. Some web sites' videos will work in fullscreen if I recently opened the browser, while others consistently are choppy in fullscreen. For example, youtube or hulu will work if I recently opened safari, but mlb.tv will consistently be choppy.
All of my software is up to date. I've tried repairing my disk permissions. I've downloaded shockwave for 64 bit. I've tried downloading the most recent beta of flash, but it didn't work, so I downgraded to the most recent official version. None of it has worked.
Please help!

Firefox returns to regular view when I pause a fullscreen flash video

Hi,
I have a very annoying problem with Firefox.
Whenever I view a flash video fullscreen and then I pause it, it switches off to regular view after a few seconds. Safari or *shudder* Chrome doesn't do this at all.
Anyone know why its doing this?
P.S. I tried disabling ALL of my addons but it still has that problem. I even tried reinstalling Firefox while deleting the old one and starting from scratch....that didn't go over so well either. Wish I saved my bookmarks at least. ouch...

Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox (you need to close and restart Firefox).
*Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
You can check for problems with current Flash plugin versions and try these:
*disable a possible RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension for Firefox and update the RealPlayer if installed
*disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
*disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

Flash videos not running on Chrome or IE on a Windows 7 Toshiba Laptop (Someone Please respond)

I'm using Windows 7 and Chrome and in the last day or so I've had no access at all to flash movies. I have the newest version of Chrome and the flash plugin. I've tried a number of things including enabling/disabling chrome plugins and it hasn't seemed to change anything. All flash video across the internet will not run.
When going here: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html, nothing shows up in the box below 1. Not even an error message. Flash videos are not working in IE either, and I've tried reverting back to version 10.3 of the player. Some sites, including Adobe sites, behave as if I don't have flash installed and tell me to download it.   Please, someone help!

Wise of you to investigate in advance.
Your best bet by far nowadays is to get a laptop with hardware virtualization and either the Professional or Ultimate versions of Windows 7 installed. That way, you can use XP Mode.
   Windows XP Mode (Toshiba)
   Windows XP Mode (Microsoft)
You can even open an XP program directly from a shortcut in Windows 7.
For current models suitable to run XP Mode, I suggest you call ToshibaDirect at 888-520-3926.

Help..Flash Videos work for Chrome/IE but NOT Firefox

So I cannot see some flash videos on Firefox (like sites CNet & Disney do not work) which use flash. It does work on Chrome & IE.
1. ALL Programs are the newest/latest versions.
2. I removed and downloaded all programs- restarted the computer after each download.
3. I have the latest Flash (according to the website) when I view the Adobe Flash Website on Firefox.
I don't know why some flash videos work...and some do not.
I am running Vista. All my programs are legit...and I do have McAfee running..I don't download porn, no viruses etc.. Anyone have advice?!!

ok ok
I disabled firewall which - for some weird reason- allow it to play in Firefox. Videos played in IE & Chrome- but not in Firefox, until I disabled Firewall..weird.

Fullscreen Flash Video Issues

On all browsers it seems that flash videos from certain sites (not youtube) will fullscreen initially and then only populate the top left quadrant with video. My flash is up to date and so are my browsers.

Check the Adobe forum area. There could be other Mac users with the same issues. Solution would be found there if any.

Flash video not loading in IE and Chrome

Hi,
I have published a simple flash video page and uploaded it to my website.
It works fine in Firefox but in IE and Chrome it seems to load the first 10 seconds i.e the loading bar goes grey for a small section, Then the buffering comes up and the video doesn't load.
I've upgraded my flash player to the latest one. Cleared my history and opened my browser again.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks

i see the same problem with all three browsers: that video won't play unless the an initial portion has already been cached.
to remedy, play and pause your video. after a 3 seconds * bitrate of your video has cached, play your video

When I try to play a flash video (like youtube) i have to click a flash button several times before it works. Why do flash videos not recogonize any clicks without several tries first?

When I try to go to a flash video, the video player never seems to recognize my mouse clicks without several tries.
It's hard to explain but if I'm at a youtube video and i place my cursor over the button that lets you skip around the video, the cursor will alternate being a cursor (like its not recognized) and a hand like its supposed to. It's sort of keeps flickering between the two if I move the mouse around on that little skip button.
I tried uninstalling firefox but it didn't make a difference. I noticed it after updating to the newer firefoxe updates. This does not happen under IE.
thank you for your help.

While you are in safe mode;
Press the '''Alt''' or '''F10''' key to bring up the tool bar.
Followed by;
Windows; '''Tools > Options'''
Linux; '''Edit > Preferences'''

Look for and turn off '''Use Hardware Acceleration'''.
Poke around safe web sites and see if there is still a problem. Then restart.

Flash video not working in IE

I’ve been making a couple of websites that need to
stream a little bit of Flash video. So I put together a little
Flash video selector swf using the simplest code (it has nothing
more than go to and play commands on the buttons and stop commands
on the timeline).
I’m also using the standard Flash wizard to stream the
video files using the low quality pre-sets on the transcoding.
I’ve used this method before and it seemed to work, but now
when I’m testing these sites in IE the Flash element seems to
crash all the time and freeze up the whole browser or the video
just doesn’t display. The weird thing is it usually plays the
first video but when you click the button to move to another it
crashes.
Here’s a couple of sites that it’s happening on
http://www.virtual360.org/v360/1.html
http://www.virtual360.org/video.asp
– they work fine in Firefox, but not in IE. Has anyone
seen this problem before? Any help would be much appreciated…
Kieran

Thanks. I'm not clear where you're referring to. There are currently two object tags. One has <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash"...> like you describe. The other has a different format.
I'm not clear on what/where I'm supposed to change.
Thanks...

Flash video not reporting when finsihed

Using a flash video object in Flash 9 via netStream off my
local hard drive I am finding when my long video reaches the end I
don't get the expected NetSream.Play.Stop. I just get this from the
netStream.onStatus at the end of the video
status : NetStream.Buffer.Full
status : NetStream.Buffer.Empty
status : NetStream.Buffer.Full
If I make a 10 second version of the video I do get the
expected NetSream.Play.Stop. I am using On2 VP6 and have tried it
as CBR and VBR bit rates.
Oddly enough as I switched to this web site to type this and
the flash movie was overwritten by the browser I suddenly got the
NetSream.Play.Stop! WTF is going on with this video object, it used
to do this in Flash 8, you'd think the boys at Adobe would have
made this system work better by now?
Any thoughts on how to deal with a unreliable video system?
