FLVPLAYBACK Fullscreen problem with IE/Vista

Question

I'm having a problem making my FlvPlayback go full screen.

in FF it works great but in IE (8) it will only work once! the next time, it will flicker and return to normal state.

Any ideas?

Answer 1

How are you embedding the swf file?

It could be the difference in and with IE causing the problem.

An easy fix may be to use SWFObject http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/

This is a JavaScript file that automates the swf embed based on browser. It may be worth a try because it can fix browser issues with swf files.

It is used as follows:

<script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script>

<script type="text/javascript">
    // <![CDATA[

    var so = new SWFObject("main.swf", "mainMovie", "100%", "100%", "9", "#083770");
    so.addParam("scale", "noscale");
    so.addParam("quality", "high");
    so.addParam("allowScriptAccess","always");
    so.write("flashcontent");

Thus the script places the swf in the appropriate tags for the browser being used.
