Details

Step to reproduce: 1. open a flash video 2. make it fullscreen 3. switch to another window Expected result: The flash video is still in fullscreen Actual result: The flash video exits fullscreen I thought whether it exits fullscreen is controlled by Flash plugin, but it seems that we are the only browser with this behavior. IE with ActiveX Flash, Chrome with PPAPI Flash, and even Safari on Mac, which uses the same NPAPI Flash as us, do not exit Flash fullscreen when they lose focus. We should fix it.
Summary: [Flash] Firefox exits fullscreen of Flash when loses focus → [Flash] Firefox exits fullscreen of Flash when losing focus
Is the other window on the same screen or a different screen? Can you provide a URL that you're testing with? Note that this *is* under the control of the plugin, not Firefox; if there is a problem here, it's probably related to focus handling and event logic which is different for each browser.

I can no longer reproduce this issue on Firefox either. Probably something has been fixed by Flash from some version.
