Having a full screen video problems, as making the videos full screen only places the video on the side of the screen not stretching into full screen. Anyone from Treehouse address the problem to the player?

1,775 PointsIt's a great reply, however in the past the player used to be in the full screen mode without doing these, can we tag any treehouse staff here? to address the player issue to auto fullscreen whenever the button is clicked rather than doing the additional manual player controls

1,775 PointsChandler Tayek - exactly in my thought, the fullscreen icon should fullscreen itself, hope there will be a fix in this :)

1,775 PointsAdam Oliver anyway thanks for the tip on the fullscreen controls appreciate it :)

Yeah I remember it going full screen before, but I was on an older operating system. Has it ever worked on Win 8?
