WMode causes Flash fullscreen mode not to work

Wednesday, December 27th, 2006

Flash’s new fullscreen mode does not work when you set the wmode param in the embed code to transparent or opaque. Fullscreen mode will only work if wmode is not set by the embed. I saw the issue come up on a project, so I thought I’d point it out for others since it is not outlined in Adobe’s documentation.

I ran a simple Flash capabilities dump script on both the Nintendo WII and the PS3. I then did a diff of the two outputs against each other and against a PC.
Below are the results:

  • PrintJob methods missing on the WII and PS3

    • WII to PS3 Differences

  • PS3 has names property for Camera and Microphone, WII does not

    PS3 7,0,70,0
    WII 7,0,70,0

    WII/PS3 Flash Capabilities Output
