Player doesn’t go full screen on iOS.

Hello James,

please try with Settings -> FV Player -> Mobile Settings -> Alternative iOS fullscreen mode and let us know if it helped.

Thanks,

Hello James,

I realized that fix does not work for YouTube videos. Please let us know if you are using YouTube.

Thanks,

Hello James,

it appears your theme is forcing some z-index along with positioning on the element where FV Player is placed – and then our plugin can’t override that.

We provide that “Alternative iOS fullscreen” setting to avoid this issue but unfortunately it does not for your YouTube.

Do you use any subtitles, overlay ads, AB loop bar or FV Player Pro DRM Text on your videos?

If not, then we can avoid this issue by only playing these YouTube videos in native fullscreen mode of the mobile. We have a setting to do that and it could be improved to work with YouTube as well. The downside is that you only get the standard built-in player while playing – hence no custom subtitles, ads etc.

Thanks,
Martin

Hello James,

the downside is that if you use the standard built-in player with no DRM text is that the video is then easy to screen capture.

Thanks,
Martin
