torrentthief Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 https://www.neowin.net/news/what-happens-when-you-ask-steve-ballmer-to-sign-a-macbook the video doesn't have a button to watch the video in fullscreen, please can you fix this, thanks:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 I'm pretty sure embedded videos don't usually have the FS button. If you want to watch it in FS, click the video to go to Youtube and maximise it there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey B. Veteran Posted January 22, 2010 Veteran Share Posted January 22, 2010 Yeah i think that is normal? is it not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torrentthief Posted January 22, 2010 Author Share Posted January 22, 2010 i think its the resolution of the video that neowin uses to embed at that determines if there is a maximise button. For example when using wordpress it will have a maximise button when you embed in blog posts but if you change the resolution to embed at it disables it.

Yusuf M. Veteran Posted January 22, 2010 Veteran Share Posted January 22, 2010 I don't know if that's really an issue. Here's what you can do, though: Right-click anywhere on the video and select "Watch on YouTube". From there, maximize the video for your viewing pleasure. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torrentthief Posted January 22, 2010 Author Share Posted January 22, 2010 yeah i know that but it would be much nicer to have a maximise button, i'll research this and get back to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the main news uses the embed, while the forums use the youtube tags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torrentthief Posted January 24, 2010 Author Share Posted January 24, 2010 yeah the main news must use different tagging, hope admins can figure out how to add videos in a way that enables the maximise button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Helix Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 (edited) http://www.neowin.ne...t__p__592142072 This one has the FS button. Maybe the main news uses the embed, while the forums use the youtube tags. It depends on the video , the bbcode tags are just hiding the html embed code so both vids are the same however that said the {youtube} code made the square videos and the {wyoutube} made the wide ones, lets try both on the same video As you can see the wide one has the fullscreen button, I tried embedding this using the method Neowin does and they left out allowfullscreen="true" This one is the {media} tag This one is {youtube} GwzklHZqkbE This one is {wyoutube} Edited January 24, 2010 by Phantom Helix Benjo85au and +Anarkii 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
