    When playing youtube videos, I have the button at the bottom of the video to go full screen, but the button does nothing when i click on it. Any ideas?

    Im using Safari, latest version. I actually just figured out that i just can't go fullscreen on videos that are only available in 360p. I guess because the picture would degrade so much in fullscreen?

    I have the same problem. It seems to be intermittent to me. I can switch between resolutions but not full screen. However when I try to watch the same video in firefox it works in full screen. Anyone else experiencing this?

    You say RESOLVED. How was it resolved op?

    I can now watch all videos in full screen because I went to YouTube.com/html5 and opted out of the html5 trial. I suggest you do the same.

    Thank you for this! Not being able to view a LOT of music videos on youtube has been frustrating me for a while now.
