Flash FLVPlayBack Video goes FULLSCREEN instead of the Application - actionscript-3

I am working on a Flash App and its a presentation. I want the App to go full screen but there is an FLVPlayBack component playing a video now instead of the App the StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN turns the video to full screen.
When I remove the video it works fine but I need that video there.
Any idea what is going wrong here ?

set the fullScreenTakeOver parameter of your FLVPlayback Component to false before the FULL_SCREEN Code. Hope that will resolve that Video takeover issue.
var yourFLVPlaybackComp:FLVPlayback = new FLVPlayback();
yourFLVPlaybackComp.fullScreenTakeOver = false;

Flash FLVplayback giving issues in fullscreen mode - content dissapears

I am working on a video playing menu set up to work in Flash player as an exe. I have videos playing in the background with buttons hovering above the video with which the user can then play different videos. I am not a programmer but I have an understanding of very basic actionscript3 which I often cut and paste and/or modify in small ways.
My problem: When launching in fullsreen mode:
stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
The video seems to make everything else disappear by appearing on top
of it or in other cases just causing a blank black screen.
this."name of FLV playback instance".fullScreenTakeOver = false;
Doesn't seem to be solving the problem.
Any help would be appreciated! :-)
I discovered in many cases it helped to put the "name of FLV playback instance".fullScreenTakeOver = false; code in the same timeline as the FLVPlayback. I still have the black screen issue sometimes, but I am working on that now.
Found the solution for the Blank screen. It's a glitch in Flash. Put the FLVPlayback on the first frame of a movieclip. This might mean converting it to a symbol in order to nest it on the first frame.

as3 Video not displayed on PC in debug mode

I am developing an app in as3+AIR for iPad with Flashdevelop.
I stream a flv with StageVideo and everything is working fine deployed on iPad.
But on the PC in Flashdevelop Debug mode no video is shown, although it gets played (NET_STATUS events are dispatched).
Any idea whats happening?
According to Adobe's Flash Roadmap, StageVideo won't be supported on PCs until 2013.
Try adding some code which checks for StageVideoAvailabilityEvent.STAGE_VIDEO_AVAILABILITY:
function onStageVideoState(e:StageVideoAvailabilityEvent):void
{
var available:Boolean = (e.availability == StageVideoAvailability.AVAILABLE);
trace("Got StageVideo?", available);
}
stage.addEventListener(StageVideoAvailabilityEvent.STAGE_VIDEO_AVAILABILITY, onStageVideoState);
When StageVideo is not available, you'll have to use a regular Video object as a fallback.

`FullScreenTakeOver` property not working: How can I keep an FLVPlayback out of fullscreen mode in a fullscreen projector?

I have an FLVPlayback component on my timeline (frame 4 or so), and my Flash Projector is running in fullscreen mode. The problem is that I can't seem to make my FLVPlayback component NOT be in fullscreen mode and at the same time, have my stage in fullscreen mode.
Why is this? How do I fix it?
EDIT:
I want the projector to be in fullscreen mode, and the FLVPlayback to not be in fullscreen.
EDIT2:
I'm making an interactive projector in Flash CS5. The projector opens, loads a video into an FLVPlayback component in the first frame. For some reason, that FLVPlayback component does not take over the screen. (I've called flv.fullScreenTakeOver = false; before the video loads. Maybe that's why?)
However, when I try to use an FLVPlayback component in a different frame (frame 4), the video player takes over the screen, showing only a black screen while playing the video. It ignores the fullScreenTakeOver = false.
What could be wrong here and how do I fix it?
it's rather easy to resize the Video instance to e.g. 25% of stage size on FullScreenEvent
UPD: working (but very simple) example on wonderfl.net i check on enter frame, but it's really too often:
video.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, updSize);
private function updSize(e:Event = null):void{
video.width = stage.displayState == 'fullScreen' ? smallVidWidth : bigVidWidth;
video.height = stage.displayState == 'fullScreen' ? smallVidHeight : bigVidHeight;
}
imho it's always possible to know when the displayState is changed, but even using a timer would be better then enterframe

Fullscreen mode loaded when opening Flash Player

Is it possible to make a flash player go full screen (not in browser)?
Would there be any bug / error on different version of Flash player?
HI!
stage.displayMode = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN_INTERACTIVE;
Available only in Adobe AIR.
It allows you to listen to keyboard events (meaning you can also type inside text boxes etc..)
stage.displayMode = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
Available in any AS3 based flash file (starting from flash 9)
There is no issue with using it, except you cannot use the keybard.
From my experience with fullscreen mode's in flash the main thing to bear in mind is to make your application have liquid layouts which re-act to the Event.RESIZE. Then when you listen for that event re-lay out your application to the new ( fullscreen ) width and height.
To do this you would change the stage.displayMode to StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN
In Flash player it's Ctrl-F, as menu suggests, so it's certainly possible. Have you tried stage.displayMode = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN_INTERACTIVE? StageDisplayState doc says it's here from version 9.0.28.0.
