In the URL bar enter chrome://plugins/ 2. Locate the Flash plug-in, you should see multiple versions listed 3. Click Disable for the plug-in with the l |
| Re: Fullscreen videos don't work | edith2 | 7/1/12 4:02 AM | I had no problem with full screen but playback was choppy. Disabling the Pepper stuff and using the old plugin in /usr/lib... solved the problem. Thanks. |

| Re: Fullscreen videos don't work | jualin289 | 7/2/12 5:54 PM | Hi jxechelon, Your problem is probably that you haven't installed the flash plugin. The latest Google Chrome comes with a flash plugin but this is the one that is giving everyone issues with fullscreen. Here is a link I found that might help you. Onc |
| Re: Fullscreen videos don't work | pjskyboy | 7/8/12 9:11 AM | This advice worked for me - turn off the libpepflashplayer.so and you will get full-screen viewing back when viewing in Chrome. Alternatively, use Firefox, that does not exhibit the same problems with full-screen. chrome://version gives: |
