I have a Macromedia flash presentation that I want to be able to display thru a PC on a videowall.

The options i can see to do this are:

1. Load it up thru MS IE and run it in full screen mode (will this maximise the flash presentation ??)
2. Display it with another sort of Flash viewer (which ??)

Can anyone help ?

If it's a .swf just find the file on your system and double click it no need to use IE. It should open in flash player which has an option to view full screen:

view -> fullscreen

If you have the .fla ie the Flash source code and a copy of Flash then you can create a Flash Projector, which works as a stand-alone application.

Only restriction is I think that you can't make a PC projector on a Mac and vice-versa. That's the cleanest way of doing it, IMHO

Yep. Thats what I'd do anyway. Just F11 your browser to go full screen, then right click your flash presentation (if its not already filling the screen) and click Zoom In or Show All.

[Edited to say - Auto hide the menu bar too ]

Don't know that it will fit the screen exactly though, unless it was written to do so ?

I'm sure there must be other players out there ? Anyone know ?
