Hi All,
Does anybody know where I can get a good FLV skin that also has a button so the user can view a video full screen, a bit like google video and youtube?
Any ideas?
I have googled it, but came out with nothing useful!
Thanks

That button is really just a call to a javascript function that opens a popup window the size of the users browser with the flash player embedded in it at 100%x100%.
getURL("javascript:openWin('urltoflash.swf');void(0);");
<script type="text/javascript">
function openWin(url)
{
var newwin = window.open(url,'fullflash','width='+screen.width+',height='+screen.height+',top=0,left0');
if(newwin) newwin.focus();
}
</script>

Any idea how to make the video on the previous page stop playing when you click on enlarge?
Thanks a lot.
Edit: Also, any ideas have to keep the video from pixelating when in full screen? I have already tried exporting the FLV video with the original AVI diamentions.

That really depends on how you setup your flash video player. If you used the components built into flash I'm not sure if thats possible. If you use custom objects as described on this site www.gotoandlearn.com then you can use the seek() function. Not much you can do about the pixelating. People know its going to happen. Look at youtube and google video their videos pixelate.
