html5

Often I can't play html5 videos at all until after a relogin.

I have a lenovo t500 with an ati hd3650.

My sense is that it's the pop up notice that kills fullscreen.

The "popup" notice refers to the notice that always pops up in the upper right hand corner when ubuntu announces something. In this case it pops up when I change the volume and video immediately jumps out of fullscreen.

The question is: can I do something about the lack of fullscreen in youtube html5 or is it something I just have to accept?
