mp3 Video file needs to launch in a full browser window.

Feb 29, 2016

I have an engineering video with a lot of detail. It needs to launch in its own browser window at full screen.  I can't get this to work?  Any ideas or steps I can follow? Thanks!

Hi Kate, 

Within the slide view, there isn't a true "full screen" mode for Storyline or embedded videos. You could continue to stretch it like an image, textbox, etc. until it takes up as much screen real estate as possible. Another option, is if you're able to insert it as a Web Object (for example from YouTube), you can set it to open in a different browser window (for example, a new tab within Google Chrome, or Firefox). That would allow you to us the normal video controls, which often include full screen viewing.  

It's worth noting that some embedded videos used to have a full screen button - but you may want to review the information here in regards to changes within sites such as Vimeo and how their full screen option behaves.
