Question

I have a video player that I'd like to click on the expand fullscreen button to expand only the video portion (excluding the control and playlist). Is it possible to do that?

Thanks,

yes, use an flvplayback component and select a skin with a fullscreen button and publish using an html template that allows fullscreen.

Sorry, I wasn't clear. It is a custom video player that I use metadata to detect the width and height and change the video screen ratio (16:9 or 4:3) based on the video being read. Then the location and size of the screen is different. If I use displaystate, it's the whole stage expanded to full screen not just the area the video is. I may have the playlist at one side that I need to exclude too. So I wonder if there is a way to expand to full-screen only on for example 640 x 360 from the top left corner of the stage?

BTW, is it possible to change a document dimensiions on the fly? Then maybe I can set the document size to the video area when expand to full screen button is clicked. Click again, it sets the document dimensions back.

Thanks for the help.

then you'll need to further customize that player to enable a fullscreentakeover property.

and no, you can't dynamically control the flash stage.
