How to share a YouTube video so it will show in full screen.

 If you would like to share a YouTube video with others but do so in full-screen mode try this...

• find a video like this one from Google for Education
• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WY-biNE94Do
• after the watch make sure to add  _popup
• it will now look like this
• https://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v=WY-biNE94Do
• do not be alarmed when you hit enter and the url changes to something that looks like this
• https://www.youtube.com/embed/WY-biNE94Do
• the reason this happens is also the reason why sometimes it may not work - it is because the creator of the video either allowed (or do not allow) embedding
• the Google for EDU video allows embedding; however a video such as the Philly Special does not - see here - 
• works when not in full screen -
•  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_XmhBaUdges&t=1s
• when changed to popup - it will not work because they did not allow embedding
• https://www.youtube.com/embed/_XmhBaUdges?t=1s

• If you create your own videos in YouTube and you would like to allow embedding (or not) simply follow these steps
• enter into your video in YouTube Studio (details)
• Choose More options
• Scroll down to under Additional options and choose Allow embedding (or uncheck if don't want to allow)

Embedded below is a 1 minute and 30 second YouTube tutorial.

Take care,
