Hello Stephen,

Is this a Flash Video that is playing? Right-click on it to see if you see Flash menu items. If so, make sure it's up-to-date: https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
Hi Matthew, It is indeed a flash plugin in I am running the latest build of Adobe Flash
I just tried to reproduce this and cannot. The video scales to full screen almost immediately. I tested on Late-2013 13" rMBP with Mac OS X 10.9.4 and Firefox 34.0a1. I had some trouble finding Flash videos on Youtube (everything I tried played with HTML5) so I went to Twitch.tv instead. Neither the HTML5 videos on Youtube, nor the Flash videos on Twitch.tv exhibited the problem you described.

Can you please provide better steps to reproduce?

It might also be worth trying to see if this reproduces for you in a new Firefox profile. If it doesn't then there might be an add-on or some changed setting that is causing this to happen.
