How to take away the annoying bar when playing a video?

There is that bar with the play button, volume, and etc blocking the video so I cannot see the lower part. Is there a way to take that away?

That might be an issue with your browser. Try maximizing the video and move your cursor over to one side of the screen.

I'm using chrome, so I would assume it would work right. I'm not so sure why it's doing that since youtube and other video streams work by just pointing my cursor to the right. I don't want to have to download the videos to get them the way I want! :(

I'm having the same issue. Just started happening today at the office. When I got home I logged in using my home machine and the same thing is happening. Tried the most recent versions of Chrome, Firefox and IE, no change.

Cleared browser cache, rebooted, didn't resolve.

No settings have been changed on either machine, its happening on two separate machines in two different locations, and within multiple browsers. Starting to think its an issue with my Treehouse profile.
