Full screen doens't scale the video to full screen

[Yoruba]

Is it possible to scale the video to fit into the screen when the player is in full screen mode?
With the HTML5 player the video is fill the whole screen when it is in full screen mode.
(see link for html5 player)

Thanks for the player, Adri

Yes this is how it used to work but you lose the custom styled controls when doing this as per issue #72. It's either go totally full screen or "half" full screen with custom controls bar. I may consider adding an option to maybe pick the fullscreen mode if you do not mind losing the custom controls when doing so.

Thanks for you response.
Maybe the width of the class .video can be set to the width of the browser or screen? (screen.width)
Then you can keep the controls.

yes, I would really love to have actual full screen size :)

also just to share my quick fix.
go into the css file inside react-html5video node mudule and find the css file
update this part with width and height worked for me.
(I did have a div wrap around my video component in normal size so it wont go full screen all the time)
.rh5v-DefaultPlayer_component {
position: relative;
font-family: Helvetica;
font-size: 11px;
background-color: #000;
width:100%;
height:100%;
}
