Seen while running Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.0; WOW64; rv:2.0b5) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0b5 STR: 1. Load http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/video/?video=personas 2. Start playing the video and then right click to go to full screen. 3. I get an immediate app hang and the Windows dialog which asks me if I want to close the program. Similar to Bug 564391 but I don't get an actual crash. I tested the same STR on Windows 7 using the same build and I do not see the same issue.
marcia, you should have windbg by now and be familiar w/ using it :) https://developer.mozilla.org/en/How_to_get_a_stacktrace_with_WinDbg install the older 32bit version instead of the DDK.

Just throwing this question out there. Marcia, did you see this in a VM or native? I often notice video performance is sketchy in VMs.
Seen on the Windows Vista Ultimate machine in the lab, running x64. timeless: We wipe our lab machines clean periodically using Clonezilla, so Windbg gets wiped out. I will have to reinstall it.
Adding in-litmus? to this bug as a reminder for me to write a testcase for this bug. We have a testcase for playing OGG video (https://litmus.mozilla.org/show_test.cgi?id=11054) but we don't have one specifically for full-screen playback.
Flags: in-litmus?
Litmus testcase added: https://litmus.mozilla.org/show_test.cgi?id=13673

Marcia, which player is being used?
