The screen size of the video is whether too small or too big (full screen) which is a bit irritating.

On Treehouse, the video screen size is whether too small or too big (full screen) which is a bit irritating because I can't see on small screen and can't work with full screen. I want to code along with teacher, but the full screen size prevents me doing that. Please fix the problem if possible.

This is a problem I have had as well. This is the only post I've found about this. I found a workaround, but I'm wondering if there are other posts with a more permanent answer. If I go into fullscreen and then 'Esc' button back out of fullscreen, the original size of the screen, outside of fullscreen, gets bigger, and I can actually see what the teacher is doing. Hopefully, this helps. If anyone has a link to a better solution, please let us know. I feel like the video should be visible out of fullscreen from the get-go.
