Making Video module full screen automatically

Hi BB Team,

I have a page on my website that just has a video in it, I want that if someone goes to that url, the video starts playing in the full screen mode, or it is already in the full screen mode. Here is the link http://digisigns.us/animated-digital-menu-board/. Would appreciate help on this, thanks

forgot to check the notify me box :slight_smile:

Hey Sherry,

Unfortunately, that isn’t possible at this time. I’m not aware of another plugin that does that to be honest, definitely somewhat of an edge case there. Sorry I don’t have a better answer for you there, but let us know if you find anything!

Hmmm… How about a JavaScript Code that automatically clicks the fullscreen button. That would work for me?

Also is there a way to display image in full screen, or something like this link where only the top part of the browser is showing. http://www.dsmenu.com/uph/2195

Thanks for the help

Hi Sherry,

It may be possible with JS, but that is beyond what we offer in terms of support here, sorry about that.

On the second question, yes, you could use a background image in a row, set it full width and then use the full height option as well.

Best,
Billy

Thanks. Can you tell me the button id or class for full screen “button” i will try to lookup autoclick javascript codes online. there are a few.

Sherry

From what I can tell, it looks like the class for the full screen button in your example site provided above is .mejs-button.mejs-fullscreen-button.

Best,
Billy

Thanks

Billy it seems like I need the id for the fullscreen button, not the class, is there one I can you?

Thanks

Sherry

There is no ID, it’s the native WordPress video player so that’s a bit out of our hands unfortunately.

Best,
Billy

No worries. Thanks

Hey Sherry,

Just wanted to chime in here. The link below shows a way to do this. But, like what Billy said, this is already out of our scope. If you’ve further questions, we might not be able to assist you further. But we’ll try. :slight_smile:
