  • Alex 7 years, 11 months ago

    Hello,

    I really enjoy your video player and all the options for Ads are awesome!
    But i have 1 small(hope so) important problem.

    I need FV Player to force fullscreen on mobile when clicked to play.
    Can anyone help me with this ?

    Hello Alex,

    we worked on this, you can test it by reinstalling FV Player from this ZIP file: https://github.com/foliovision/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/archive/7910859-mobile-fullscreen-settings.zip First you will have to deactivate and remove your existing FV Player plugin. No videos or settings will get lost.

    There are two new settings in the “Mobile Settings” box – “Use native fullscreen on mobile” and “Force fullscreen on mobile”. The later one should be interesting for you.

    Current limitations:

    * doesn’t work for YouTube vidoes
    * when using playlist on Android “Force fullscreen on mobile” only works with the first playlist item

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Actually I forgot to hit the commit button, so the changes are not there yet. Let me fix that tomorrow morning.

    Thanks,

    Hello Alex,

    here is the correct link: https://github.com/foliovision/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/archive/7910859-mobile-fullscreen-settings.zip

    Just delete and deactivate FV Player, then reinstall from that ZIP file. Please let us know how it works for you.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Hello Alex,

    actually these features were not released in FV Player 6.1.2, so you can just upgrade to that.

    Thanks,
    Martin
