set fullscreen to a part of the stage. (flv)

i want to display a flv in fullscreen when a button is hit.

i dont want to activate fullscreen for the whole stage!
only for a part of the stage, where the flv is playing.

is this possible in flash or can i only set the whole stage to fullscreen??

:cap:

nobody tried this before??

Hi,

I have exactly the same question and problem..if you have found the answer..i would love to know it.

Thanks a lot

well, nobody knows nothing at flashkit??
i did some research and found some methods for this:

look for:
fullScreenSourceRect

Flash Player 9 Update 3 introduces a new property called fullScreenSourceRect on the Stage object. It is available in ActionScript 2.0 and ActionScript 3.0. This property allows developers to specify which part of a SWF is displayed in full-screen mode. This allows Flash Player to leverage hardware scaling which can significantly improve quality and performance.

there is also an oldschool way:
you can set the whole stage to fullscreen and after that, just scale the content and give a new position of the mc/stuff you want to scale.

Thanks a lot Mylander
I used the oldschool way and all is working!
