ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Video Player Full Screen For Dual Monitors?
Jul 18, 2008
I am using the FlvPlayback class to show movies. The full screen feature works since I am just calling the method defined in the class. My issue is whenever I make it full screen on a computer that has 2 monitors, the full screen flash player always ends up in the primary monitor. When that happens, I notice that the location where the flash player was in the other monitor is empty. How do I prevent this from happening and force the video player to remain in the monitor it was originally in?

I have an AIR application that will go full screen when the application starts:
stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN_INTERACTIVE; The stage size is 2560 x 1024. And I have 2 moniters (1280 x 1024 , 1280 x 1024) When I start the application, it shows my application on one of my moniter only.
I need the left side of the stage to be shown in moniter 1 and right side of the stage to be shown in moniter 2. Currently, both sides are shown in moniter 1, and in moniter 2, it shows nothing but my default desktop. *The blue color line is a divider for better visual purpose. How do I make the left side of the stage to appear in moniter 1 and right side of the stage to appear in moniter 2 when the application starts in full screen mode?

I thought there was a simple way to make Flash content display full-screen on two monitors at once, but I can't seem to recall how to do it.
Searching on the topic is tough because so many people are talking about the ability to keep a full-screen video playing while working on another screen, which is not what I want. I need an app I'm developing at 2880 x 900 to be viewable full-screen across two monitors horizontally.
I've tried
stage.displayState = "fullScreen";
activate from a user click, but it fills only one screen.
I've tried it from within a projector and from a browser with allowFullscreen set to true, and using version 10.2 of the player.

I would like to ask how do I extend my display on 2 moniters with flash in full screen? My stage size is 1600*600, I want the stage to be extended and display in both moniters. Each moniter resolution is 800*600. Red portion should be displayed on moniter 1, and Blue portion should be displayed on moniter 2. Now, both portions are displayed on moniter 1. Nothing at moniter 2. link to pic: [URL]

How do I get the dimensions of the monitor the user is watching the video with if they have dual monitors? If I use this --
mc_videoDisplay.height = (Capabilities.screenResolutionY - 26);
mc_videoDisplay.width = Math.floor(mc_videoDisplay.height * 16 / 9);
it's only using the primary monitor so it's all out of whack if they're watching on the extended monitor.

I'm workin on a multimedia CD that I'm creating entirely with Flash. I have just ncorporated 2 video files. They play in the flash players fine but when I click on the Full Screen mode it blows the video up way to big to the point were I can only see a small section of it.

We have this legacy code of a flash video player that functions well enough but still has some loose ends I need to tighten up. It can do the basic "switch to full screen and back to normal size" stunts, however with one exception.
On the first fresh load of the app, if I switch to full screen mode first, and then click to play the movie, the player would be in full screen, yet the movie itself would remain in it's original size.
//trigger
if (stage.displayState == StageDisplayState.NORMAL) {
stage.addEventListener('fullScreen', procFullScreen);
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
[Code]....
The VideoDisplay object even returns the expected width/height, but the movie just plays in it's original size. If I switch screen sizes during movie playback, then the movie size will shrink or stretch as it should.

Ive imported an FLV into a Project. Some computers wont play the video back if the Flash Player is set to Full Screen. The screen goes black during Full Screen. If you set the player to regular, you can see the video playing (embedded into design) but once you set player to Full Screen the video plays on its own right at centre of screen. Im working on a Touch Screen Display that has the display set to Portrait mode. Im investigating if the display card is causing the problem.

I am creating a full screen projector with flash CS4. In the projector I have more videos, starting from an swf player-
The problem I encounter is this:
The projector starts correctly FULLSCREEN (using AS). The video plays 900x506 correctly. If I click on the player, to get the video full screen, it works. But when I press ESC, not only the video, but also the PROJECTOR looses full screen.
This is a bit annoying. Is there a way to apply the "back to normal size" only to the video? I do not want to prevent the app to be exited from full screen, it's not a problem if the user wants to exit the projector full screen. But not when the user exits the video from fullscreen mode.
How to target only the video?

i am currently developing a standalone video application that will interact with our backend database and display the proper video, video title, video description and color scheme that you choose.Everything's working hunky dory, until I asked some of cohorts to see if they could break it before I show it off to the world. On the very first try, when my colleague went to full screen, the video was distorted, cut off by the bounds of the monitor, and not perfectly centered as it has been performing on my monitor.
And then it hit me... He was opening the browser in one of his computer's monitors, bringing the browser to the other monitor (we all have a dual monitor thing going on here), and THEN clicking the full screen button.I noticed that when you refresh the page, the variables I get to determine the fullscreen dimensions are being set, but NOT on EnterFrame.
After quickly changing this little glitch, I saw that the variables are still not being changed when you drag your browser window from one monitor to the other (hopefully they are set at two different resolutions, otherwise it defeats the purpose of even checking for this)how I can get my Flash application to recognize when it has entered into a new resolution.

Has anyone seen a Flash video player out there that will load and play two videos at the same time, such as for comparing videos? A potential client is looking for something along the lines of this. I've not been able to locate anything out there,and I'm wondering if there's a usability reason for this...Obviously, you wouldn't want the audio playing for both at the same time, and the bandwidth issue for something like this might be a concern too. My feeling is that you wouldn't want to restrict a user to just playing both videos at once, but give them the option to play them separately or at the same time, with controls for each audio and playback.

I've always been frustrated when I use the FLV video player component because it does not create the full-screen button For example, I have a 1280x720 F4V video. I want to use the FLV component to play it. But I want it to be on the stage half that size (640x360) and then give viewer option to click full screen to play it at 1280x720 (like YouTube does).So I'm basically stuck with the same old player controller that flash CS4 generates with no full screen capability.

for a project I need to develop a custom video player that needs to be able to go fullscreen, with custom control (play btn etc) overlay. The player will be used in a flash application (say as a window in the application.
Now I can figure out how to build a player from NetConnection, NetStream, Video etc, but I have no idea how you would implement the ability to go fullscreen and have the control overlay when in fullscreen as well.
Note that I cant tell the SWF to go full screen, it needs to be just the player.

I have an issue with video. I have a full screen projector running Flash Player 10.1. I call the video with this code:
function fbtnclickj(e:MouseEvent):void{
var loadera = new Loader();
addChild(loadera);
loadera.load(new URLRequest("videos/video1a.swf"));
}
The videofile (video1a.swf) uses the Flash FLV Playback component 2.5 (size 320 x 240) and the source movie is external (video1a.flv). The videoloads and runs fine but enters in full screen despite I have configure the component to exactFit. Any way to make it stay to 320x240?

I tested my skin for YouTube Chromeless player, and seems it worked properly.All graphic elements, including TLFTextFields, are stored in external SWF, all the AS3 code - in loading SWF.I use ProLoader class to load SWF.However, when I tried to attach Player skin code to my Home Page code, I immediately bumped into two issues:
1. TLFTextFields ceased to display proper font;
2. YouTube Chromeless player ceased to enlarge up to Full Screen width in Full Screen mode, whereas all publishing settings were kept the same...
Although I managed to cope with TLFTextField bug by replacing instances with vars in loaded SWF, I have no the slightest idea what to do with those paddings in Full Screen mode... Neither removing all children on stage before loading YouTube Player skin, nor compulsory resetting player's size can't make it work...

I have a FLV playing in Flash with a full screen button. The problem is I want only the video to be shown full screen, not the entire stage. This is the code I'm using to make the video fullscreen.
function fullScreenUP(event:MouseEvent):void {
if (screenCheck == false) {
stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;

I'm running Vista, 32 bit, and the latest version of Firefox. Any time I enlarge a video I'm watching on a website that uses the Flash Player, (youtube and others) to full screen, the computer eventually locks up. The video continues normally, but hitting escape does nothing to reduce the video back to the smaller size. I then hit CTRL ALT DEL and still nothing changes. The mouse can't move the cursor, hitting tab doesn't work, nothing.
I've tried uninstalling the Flash Player using the offline uninstaller, and reinstalling the latest Flash Player using the offline installer. I've gone to the Flash "about" page after each of those 2 actions to make sure that Flash is completely uninstalled, and reinstalled. I've also run CCleaner after uninstalling Flash Player just to make sure no registry entries, etc. remained.

Is there a generic way, preferably in Javascript but flash would be okay, I guess, to put an overlay on top of full-screen flash video without editing the video player?The particular use case is that I'd like to add growl-like notifications to some live streaming stuff without writing a lot of AS that ties me to a specific player. It seems that most of the players would not allow this anyway.

I have implemented chromeless player and so far the necessary controls such as play, pause, change video, mute, unmute all appear to work fine through JavaScript. I now need to send the chromeless player to "Full Screen" mode via JavaScript.
The JavaScript API player includes the full screen button but the chromeless player does NOT; infact; the chromeless player is not supposed to contain ANY button. I therefore need to set full screen mode via JavaScript but could not find any documented method for this.

I do not want to intertop between c# and AS3 or here. I want a full screen content player in C# which can host a Adobe Flash swf file. Is there an example? In full screen, right clicks would have custom behavior attached.I saw one in Visual c++. As per Chris's I checked the link. I tried adding these lines of code:
path = @"D:exampleFlexMainMenu.swf";
axShockwaveFlash1.LoadMovie(0, path);
axShockwaveFlash1.Play();
However, this swf was from Flash Builder and not Flash, hence there were other files like
framework_4.1.0.16076.swz rpc_4.1.0.16076.swz sparkskins_4.1.0.16076.swz
osmf_flex.4.0.0.13495.swz spark_4.1.0.16076.swz textLayout_1.1.0.604.swz

I am using an flvplayback component and an flvplaybackcaption component to create a video with captions read from an external xml file. The captions from the xml are read into a dynamic text box just below the video player. I am using a default Flash skin with full screen and caption icons.Upon entering full screen mode, the captions default to play at the bottom of the video, just above the video controls - which is just what I want.
However, if I turn off captions in full screen mode, and then exit full screen mode, I no longer have control of captions when not in full screen mode. IE, I cannot get captions back on after exiting full screen mode, and the caption button in the skin becomes useless. If I re-enter full screen mode and enable captions, then when I exit full-screen mode, I have my normal usage of captions.

I am working on a custom AS3 video player and I can't find any information on modifying the skin when the player enters full screen mode. Take YouTube for example... When you enter full screen mode, the menu controls maintain their size with the exception of the scrubber bar, which widens to fit the width of the screen.Currently my player controls scale (width and height) in full screen mode and become very large.

I've been trying to attempt to make it so a .flv video will fit to the entire screen of the browser window. ( I already have my .swf file fit to re-size to any browser on any computer. I just can't figure out how to make the video as well) And obviously an external video so the flash file wont take forever to load.The point is this is to be able to have the Video be the background. So I may put content (Links, information or whatever else) on top of the video.
