Hi!

A problem has just started which is absolutely infuriating.

On watching Neflix in full screen mode it gets reverted to standard mode every 5 - 7 minutes this happens with whichever browser I'm using either Explorer, Firefox or Google Chrome.

I've tried viewing on another (less powerful) on the same network and I'm able to view in full screen without any problem.

What might be causing this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

1) Right-Click over Silverlight and select "Silverlight" from the ContectMenu.2) Select the Permissions Tab.3) Make sure Netflix has Permission to stay in Full-Screen when Unfocused.re-install silverlight

Do have an email notifier?That or another automated process can make this type of action happen.

Netflix uses Microsoft Silverlight plugin to work.Many users have reported that Netflix works in full screen without any issues in Internet Explorer 6 and above.You can also try (if you feel it comfortable),pressing F11 every times it switches back to normal screen.
