Windows Media Player Plays All Video In Full Screen

abartar
I have a problem with my windows media player.

It plays all videos in full screen mode. The media player does not show any menu bars etc when it starts playing video. hence I cannot reduce the size. I have tried pressing Alt + enter looking through options like video size, zoom etc, but to no luck. Even try uninstalling and reloading different version but in all case the problem persists.

I have used ver. 9, 10 11 (beta). All versions are giving problems.

Any help is appreciated.

I could of sworn that Windows Media Player already ahd this from original versions.

Meh, they do this anyway, to make people check the Microsoft website for the new release with new features, then buy the things they'll find on the site!

What a con!!

I have a possible solution for abartar. I had the same problem. I had to go into: Control Panel > Display > Settings > Advanced. I have a tab in there called "GEForce 6800" for nView dual monitor settings. Under a setting for "Full Screen Video," I clicked to disable full screen device, and it fixed the problem...Finally.

Replying to Feedbacker I have a Nividia Quadro FX 540 that all of sudden was doing the same thing. I tried navigating several ways to the place you mentioned, but, could not get there except by the exact route you mention. I changed the settings and everything is fine now.



I was going freaking going nuts with this problem. I was trying to edit video on one monitor while watching a training vid on the other and couldn't stop the other monitor from launching into full-screen whether I used Nero or Windows Media Player.



Cannot thank you enough for having this tip posted and yahoo finding it on my problem search

True solution
Windows Media Player Plays All Video In Full Screen

Start MPC (not with a video file) > View > Options > Playback > Output > Direct3D Fullscreen > Uncheck it

This is the option what is causing it. Couldn't disable anything on my videocard so I dug a bit deeper.

Typical of Windows. M/Soft think by changing something in their tired old software (Media player) makes it newer. If they are going to make a new OS why don't they do just that instead of just changing the look & efficiency of things. No menu bar in Now playing mode has not made it quicker or easier to navigate, it has just made things more difficult.

The same goes with the removal of the Quick launch bar in Windows 7, this new pinned program setup may look pretty but it has slowed the click & go process down quite a bit. Now instead of just point & click you now have to 1-point, 2-right click & then 3-click again.

how to force adobe flasher player to only play the vids I want
Windows Media Player Plays All Video In Full Screen

Every time I visit certain sites, Adobe downlods the latest video and plays it. I have tried all the settings and it just carries on. Some sites do not respond if one does not have a flash player. Is there ab alternative to Adobe Flash player that does not do its own thing? Regards Case -question by Case

I have the opposite problem
Windows Media Player Plays All Video In Full Screen

I wish I had your problem. I'm trying to figure out how to force Mediaplayer 11 to open all video's in full screen mode. I'm tired of having to resize them. I never had this problem with Mediaplayer 10.

    and then upload them to Youtube or a similar site so as to prevent myself from having to send out

    to have no video quality loss but getting lower file size. There are many tools for converting
    video files to lower sizes. This tool in particular can convert following files to avi format in a
    very simple way and at a fast speed :- avi, vob, ts, mpg, dat, mov and avs. While the output will
