Des Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 I think its the way the video was recorded and scaled down bro, so it's probably not possible to view it in full resolution.

ATGC Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 That's how it is for youtube's player on fullscreen. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/657660-help-youtube-flash-full-screen-resolution-help/#findComment-589653010 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Decryptor Veteran Posted August 15, 2008 Veteran Share Posted August 15, 2008 Yep, that's just how it is. Edit: It's silly and I don't know why it's like that though.

Menge Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 i get full resolution. i don't know what's the difference. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/657660-help-youtube-flash-full-screen-resolution-help/#findComment-589653144 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozgeek Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Yep it's normal. If you are talking about the black left and right parts that's because you have a widescreen monitor and the video is not a widescreen-formatted video. And I do get the seekbar (the bottom bar) in fullscreen and the text about "Pressing Esc.." goes off by itself after about a second or two into the full screen mode.

Code.Red Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Yeah, I used to get what Menge posted, but a few weeks ago(?) they must have changed it as I get what you are getting. Curious.

Menge Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Windows Vista + Aero? i get the same as the first poster on OS X (which is why i think the desktop composition engine does it). my XP machine gets full res, though.

+Gary7 Subscriber² Posted August 15, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted August 15, 2008 I just tried it in full screen mode and the image was almost perfect.

MasterC Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I used to get it normally like the Rickroll video posted above, but lately I've been getting the chunky version. Really sucks on 2560x1600. :/ Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/657660-help-youtube-flash-full-screen-resolution-help/#findComment-589653240 Share on other sites More sharing options...
