Evening all,

Normally, I watch videos fullscreen, when using Chrome, on youtube etc on one monitor, and browse on the other, and the video will remain in fullscreen.

I turned on my PC this morning and found that my videos are no longer in fullscreen when I click off. Could anyone help me with this please? It's incredibly frustrating!

Thanks in advance,
dirtychinchilla

Temporary solution:


It's a Flash issue apparently, rolled out with the latest update. Guess that's no surprise.

A temporary fix, as posted here, is as follows:

Code:
Toni, mine has not been working as well. I worked around the problem by doing the following:
-Go to chrome://plugins
-Click and expand +Details in the Upper Right
-Check over the flash files. 
-One is version 11.3.31.222, the other two show version 11,3,300,268
-Disable the odd version (11.3.31.222) and reload the flash content

This seems to fix it for the time being.

Hope this helps track down this bug.

That seems to be working for most.

Ergh... so Flash is now messing up on Chrome? Recently I've been trying to move to Chrome due to the issues in Firefox, but seeing this I wish Flash would hurry up and die so HTML5 can take over faster.
