OSMF in AIR has video disapper when switching to fullscreen using AIR runtime 3.8 and above

[ramil1219]

We have an application that loads StrobeMediaPlayback in an AIR application to play videos. But once we've upgraded to AIR runtime 3.8 and above, the fullscreen stops working: video is missing but audio is still playing. This is reported to be happening to our users using Windows that 64-bit and a few reports with 32-bit Windows (ie Win7 and Win8).

Looking at it closely, it looks like the StageVideo introduced to AIR desktop from AIR 3.8+ runtime was causing the problem. I can disable stageVideo in the player (OSMFSettings.enableStageVideo = false) and it can work fine (or turn off hardware acceleration in the computer). But the real problem I think is that the StageVideoAvailibiltyEvent is not returning the correct value if the machine really supports StageVideo or not. This looks like a bug in AIR runtime.
