    Is this non support of NPAPI that causes this non full screen on this site?

      Netscape Plugin API, an old standard for Netscape/Firefox/other plugins.

      I guess Google wants their own API and not go with an old API, mainly to kill Flash and Java (not Javascript) I suppose (among other stuff, virtually all existing plugins out there including Silverlight)...

        They've been disabled in firefox alpha too. Luckily netflix has html5/mp4 support in chrome, but not firefox

            It's the basis for secure mp4/h.264 streaming, which is the only reason why netflix allowed it, cause it's DRM for non-flash/non-Silverlight video

                No more flash. Good riddance. HTML5 does everything Flash did, in better quality and using less resources. Chrome's HTML5 implementation is fairly buggy tho - you'll laugh but the best HTML5 support i have seen so far is in IE11 on Win 8.1.

                  why you guys don't put this flash/HTML5 thing in lame terms,i end up not understanding ,if HTML5 is the new thing then why so many people have problems to watch video streams since most Videos are Flash Based,you mean if i have HTML5 will i watch flash player streams? if so how i install HtML5? and is it for Win and Linux OPS? or is this a thing that Browsers already have integrated in their web plug-gins?
