YouTube Tricks

Go to Full-screen version of a YouTube Video

• As you know, if you want to show a YouTube video full-screen, you click on the full-screen icon found in the lower right-hand corner of a YouTube video.   But what if you want to send a person to a YouTube video that is already full-screen. In other words, you don’t want them to see the comments for the video and you don’t want them to see the list of related videos found on the right side of a YouTube page. To take them to the full-screen of the YouTube video, send them to https://www.youtube.com/embed/VIDEOID where “VIDEOID” is the ID that is found at the end of the URL of the video. For instance, if you go to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZI5oZ-1NdA you’ll see the video on the left side of the page and related videos on the right.
  But to see a full-screen version of the video, go to https://www.youtube.com/embed/fZI5oZ-1NdA
