Hi everyone,

This question has been puzzling me forever. How is it possible, when you build 
a video player in Flash, to have a fullscreen button that sends the video in 
fullscreen mode USING HARDWARE ACCELERATION but without distorting (scaling) 
the video player skin with it?

I know it's possible because YouTube does it, and also the new Strobe Media 
Playback (and associated Flash Media Playback) does it. I think even the 
popular JW player does it.

As far as I know, there's only one method to go into fullscreen with hardware, 
which is the Stage.fullScreenSourceRect property. And that property doesn't 
seem to allow some display objects to use the hardaware rendering (like the 
video itself) and some display objects to use software rendering (like the 
skin).

What am I missing? I've looked through the Strobe Media Playback code ad can't 
find anything.

Anyone has a clue???
