Full Screen Mode

Theater Mode Display

The video screen enlarges to fill the whole screen, without the Related Info panel. The Player Control toolbar is displayed at the bottom of the computer screen, but it will automatically hide if you do not move your cursor. Move your cursor again to make it visible.

For multiple-screen systems, the video screen will expand to fill the monitor on which the majority of the RealPlayer was displayed. If this includes the screen with the menu bar, then all other screens will be blacked out during playback.

Both the RealPlayer window and the Resize Frame will auto-hide, reappearing when the mouse pointer is moved.

Click in the Resize Frame, or in the Player Control toolbar, to return to a normal display with the video screen in RealPlayer.

Note: Using RealPlayer in Full Screen mode does not change your Desktop, it only hides the desktop while you watch the presentation.

Resize Frame

When you move the mouse pointer over the video screen, a Resize Frame appears. To resize the video screen, click and drag the lower-right corner of the Resize Frame.

When the video screen is resized in the Full Screen mode to a size less than the whole screen, it appears on a black background.

Resize Frame Tab

 Shows the size of the video screen, along with the following controls:
