Problem of mode full screen

I have a Toshiba, and I am unable to switch to full screen mode when I watch things online.  There is a diagonal line in the middle of the screen with the top down and black white.  I can hear very well, but nothing is displayed.  Y at - it a setting or something I need to change to make it work?

Hello Lizzard4210,

Thank you for visiting the website of Microsoft Windows Vista Community.

If I understand that correctly ask you try following these steps should solve the problem:

Switch between display modes in Windows Media Player

Windows Media Player has five display modes: full (the default view), skin, full screen, compact, and mini Player. You can easily switch to the mode that works best for the content that you post.

To switch from full mode to compact mode

Compact mode allows you to view only the player controls.

  • Click the switch to compact mode button near the lower right of the player.
    Click the button again to restore the full mode player.

To switch from full mode to skin mode

Skin mode allows you to use a customized, alternative player view.

  • Press CTRL + 2 to change the player in the most recently selected skin.
    For more information on the mode of the skin, change to see how the Player looks using skins.

To switch from full mode to skin mode

Full mode is the default display of the player. It offers full access to all the features of the player.

  • Right-click anywhere on the player, and then click on switch to full mode.

To switch from full or skin mode mini Player

Mini Player mode allows you to minimize the player to the Windows task bar, while having access to playback controls and the ability to view visualizations and information about the currently playing item.

  • Right-click on an open in the taskbar area Windows (such as the system clock), point to toolbars and then click Windows Media Player.
    This activates the function and should only be run once. A check mark appears next to Windows Media Player to indicate that it is turned on. To switch to mini player in the future, simply click on the button cut in the drive.

From the mini Player Full mode or skin

  • In the mini Player, click anywhere in the drive that is not used as a button or volume control. The Player returns to the way it was before.

To switch from full or skin mode full screen

Full screen makes videos, DVDS and photos fill the entire screen when you play them.

  1. Start to play (or pause playing) a video, TV show, DVD, or song with a visualization.
  2. Click the button to view full screen, or press ALT + ENTER.
    To return to full mode, press ESC. For more information about how full-screen, view a video using the entire screen.

To prevent people to enter full-screen mode

You can use the lock full-screen to prevent people to enter full-screen mode to another mode. You can use the lock full-screen, for example, during an evening to prevent customers to use other programs while playing your music.

  1. Play an item and then switch to view full screen.
  2. Click the mode button the lock screen.
  3. Type a personal identification number (PIN) four-digit and then click on the OK button.
    To turn off full-screen lock, click the release mode button full screen, enter your PIN, and then click the OK button. If you forget your PIN, restart your computer.

Let us know if these steps solve your problem.  I hope the information is useful.

Kind regards

  • Toolbar problem. No mode full-screen.

    Before I could click on an internet destination and happen mode full screen without an extra full box or click on F11.  Now to a toolbar which requires an additional step.  My laptop does not.  How can I fix my desktop computer to fix this problem?  I use the Windows XP version.

    The site opens to the taskbar and you must click on it to see? This is probably the opening off screen.
     
     
    Right-click the minimized on the taskbar window button, and select move. Now, use the arrow keys to get to the screen. Close all other windows except this one and use the cursor to drag the message to the desired size.

  • Mode full-screen Windows 10

    I installed Firefox on a new computer with Windows 10 and initially failed to enter fullscreen (F11) mode. After some tests, I came up with a procedure that works, but involves starting Firefox twice each time - a minor annoyance.
    I have 1 'Favorites' tab and the other tabs open with a working fullscreen and close Firefox normally (I don't get the warning waited on the closure of several tabs). The following steps find Firefox upward and mode full-screen:

    1. launch Firefox. It gives a blank page expanded with the address bar and the bar tab with a single tab.
    2. press F11. Curiously, square set full-screen mode, it replaces the page 'Restored' size.
    3 maximize. Window extends to its appearance after step 1.
    4. stop Firefox. Window goes away.
    5. start Firefox a 2nd time. This time, it will come with the 'restoration' page Firefox (with address & tab bar) which shows the tabs that were open at the previous close and gives the opportunity to select the tabs you want to come this time.
    At this point F11 will toggle in and out of fashion full screen properly, so steps 6 and 7 can be either order.
    6. press F11. He's going to full screen (i.e. address & tab bars disappear).
    7. click on the button "restore". Earlier closing tabs are restored and F11 is fully functional.
    Issues related to the:
    1. Why don't I get the warning for closing multiple tabs? (It seems more to be an option.)
    2. because (in XP at least) the "Restoration" page should appear only after a forced or abnormal stop, why is she even get involved? (Both the cases referred were normal).
    3. why Firefox doesn't come until normal the first time, with only the tabs that have been pinned and F11 functional?

    Since the first opening of this problem, it seems that the updates have been applied to Firefox, Windows 10 or both, and itself has the problem. So "thank you" to the one who fixed it.

  • Browser is stuck in mode full screen, restart does not help.

    I entered the mode full screen on a website and now cannot get out. Restarting my computer does not help. Problem is that when you are using Firefox, no other browsers. Firefox continues to open full screen mode whenever I open it, and I have to reboot in order to use another browser.

    Try to rename (or delete) the file xulstore.json in the Firefox profile folder.

    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder currently in use:

  • Customize the black guest "* is full screen" when using the API of full-screen mode full screen shutter?

    The prompt on the top of the screen is so big and not very attractive. Y at - it any way/API to change his style?

    Another problem is that if the mode full screen is enabled on a machine with two monitors, you can toggle focus on programs in another monitor. But whenever you focus on the browser full screen, black prompt is displayed again, which is annoying.

    Hi fordbzd,

    This could be a big question for https://www.stackoverflow.com or https://www.mdn.com

    These are third party, but they are nice places to start:

    It depends on the api used as well to track down the call for the notification of full screen or a video player:

  • Flash hangs using Firefox mode full screen

    When you try to view full screen videos, I get a message that Adobe broke down. I uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe and using current versions of Firefox. This problem doesn't seem to appear with IE.

    The problem in my case seems self imposed. I had already changed my settings to Visual effects for best performance. After changing the parameters of effects Visual back for 'let Windows choose... ", all my problems with the adobe software crashing mode full screen have been resolved. Thank you for your comments jscher2000.

  • I can only access buttons of menu on the first line when I use mode full-screen, why?

    Many Web sites I visit have on the first line of the web page in a series of menu options that do not respond when I move the mouse to select options. If I use the mode full screen these buttons work correctly. These buttons work correctly when I use IE or Chrome. I am running Windows 7 and this has happened in the last two weeks.

    Recently, the extension of the Yahoo! toolbar and the extension of Babylon have been reported to cause a problem like that. Disable or uninstall the modules.

  • Menu bar is not visible, but it is button mode full-screen. How can I fix it?

    While I'm in Firefox, it seems that I am mode full screen, as my menu bar is missing in the application, but when I looked at how to troubleshoot, it told me to click the mode button full screen (with diagonal arrows) but is not visible anywhere in my browser. If not, how can I exit full screen mode? Thank you!

    You get the menu bar if you close this window of Firefox?

    On Mac, you can't hide the menu bar as in Windows and Linux, and because the operating system control the menu bar then it may not be a Firefox problem.

    You can try:

    You can also try to remove the Firefox plist file.

    See how the .plist files becomes corrupt and troubleshooting results

    Come on in "library > Preferences" and remove the plist for Firefox (org.mozilla.firefox.plist).

    Hello

    Have you tried to update the display driver? Maybe you have an older version that is not fully compatible with Windows 7. Just check the Web from Toshiba site to get the latest version:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    Normally for mode full screen in games you choose the native screen resolution of your screen there.
    Check this box!

    And it would be interesting to know in what games this problem exists

    I tried everything, but absolutely cannot navigate without a curson WinMedia Center.

    H E L P

    Hello

    In the mouse control panel, under "Pointer Options" to go to the option "Display Pointer Trails.
    This option should be disabled.

    AFAIK that should help to show the mouse pointer in Windows Media Center mode full-screen.

    Whenever my computer is running any video game mode full screen, it restarts without warning. Then she'll tell me that the system has recovered from a serious error. The error will quote two files - sysdata.dmp and one other file. Even applications that takes only a small percentage of the processor will cause the computer to restart when operating in full screen.
    Another thing, sometimes when I start my computer, it will tell me that a file is missing or corrupted and needs to be reinstalled usng windows operating system cd. The file is different every time. This error prevents recurring. I tried to reinstall my OS several times, but it was always the same. I found a way to work around this problem, however, I kept just restart my computer and he's finally going to start up.
    I bought my computer in 2006, but has recently changed the ram, but it has not helped. My previous ram was a TwinMOS 1 GB of ram, if it helps.
    I hope someone can give me a solution to solve the problems.

    This is similar to hardware problems - I suggest running a utility to test memory such a MemTest86 for a few hours see what he reports and also to test the hard drive with the utility of control of the manufacturer. (Because Maxtor no longer exist, use the utility of Seagatehttp://www.seagate.com/www/en-us/support/downloads/seatools - I prefer the DOS version)
    You can have overheating problems - check fans on your machine are not clogged, clean and spin freely.
