SlingPlayer Mobile for Windows Smartphone: Viewing video in full-screen mode


When you want to maximize the video screen size, use the keypad asterisk key (*) on your Smartphone to toggle between portrait and full-screen modes.   (For devices with QWERTY keyboards, you may have to press the equivalent of an “ALT” key to activate the asterisk key.)


If your phone’s screen is longer than it is wide (portrait), pressing * will rotate the image, changing the viewing mode to landscape.

 

If your phone’s screen is wider than it is long (landscape), pressing * will change the viewing mode to full screen, but without changing orientation.

Another way to switch to the Fullscreen mode is to select SlingPlayer Menu> Player Mode> Fullscreen.


You can also go to Fullscreen by selecting the Fullscreen icon in the Favorites bar. Press Space or # key to invoke the Favorites bar and then use the navigation key to highlight and select the Fullscreen icon. Use the Space or # key to switch from Fullscreen to Portrait mode.
