There are numerous queries for this problem on the site but no answers.
PROBLEM:
When viewing a streamed movie on the net the images are good in the small screen mode: however, when changed to full screen mode, there is only a black screen with sound.
"Esc" returns the stream to the movie in small screen mode.

Does anyone have a fix?

cheers

hi dmex

there are many sites out there that stream movies. one example that i use is justin. tv (not a plug, honest!)
when i access one of the channels on this site and other sites, the image comes up on a small screen to view (like youtube), however, whenever i click full screen mode to view the movie, it only comes up for a few seconds then the screen becomes completely black.
the image does not return by clicking on the screen.
if i press 'esc' then it returns to the movie on the small screen.

cheers

hey

i found this solution:

right click on the small screen image
click 'settings'
uncheck the 'enable hardware acceleration' box
