Ok, firstly This is NOT illegal. It's a simple Apple Script that anyone can write. It's just that this developer has kindly made it accessible for everyone and added menu-bar functionality. Which brings me onto the next point. The developer has NOT ripped off anyone. His program is similar to 'QuikTime FS' because they're providing the same very simple service. his only crime then is doing something that's been done in a similar way before, so by that logic you should also be sending hate mail to the Windows Vista development team.

Most of all - it has correct file permissions. This update with Mountain Lion compatibility just happend by chance when I was correcting a few of my apps and scripts. ;-) But you're right, QuickTime Player X has full screen capabilities and also the latest version of QuickTime Pro Player for 10.6.3 and newer has this feature (finally for free) [ http://support.apple.com/kb/DL923 ].

It does not seem to work for me. The script bar does not come up. I'm not sure what this installer did, I went into the scripts folder and got rid of the script. Do I need to reinstall Quicktime? Did it mess up something else other than putting the script into the folder?

Version 1.2.1

I downloaded this and installed it but am not exactly sure how it is used. I have the script installed in my quicktime player folder but not sure what to do from there. When I play a file in quicktime I still have no access to the full screen option.

After opening the movie file in the QuickTime Player you need to select the script "Show Movie in Full Screen" in the Script Menu (folder "QuickTime Player" to play the opened movie in full screen.

1) Delete the following directory: "/Library/Scripts/QuickTime Player" then 2) Delete the following Receipt File: "/Library/Receipts/QT Full Screen 1.2.1 Installer.pkg"

Version 1.2.1

This is a good little script. It doesnt modify QT to make the 'pro' features active, it just adds a script to make QT show video files in full screen. Something that should have been a free feature of QT to start with imho.

I just wanted to add that "QuikTime FS" was not compatible with Mac OS X 10.4.x (Tiger) at the release date/time of "QT Full Screen" v0.8 (initial release). Maybe somebody else has copied some AppleScript code... ;-) Chris (macparc.ch)

No my good friend I did not copy your code, in fact I didn't even install your program because I am still running Panther. I just got back from a 6 month deployment to the Persian Gulf and I am just now getting back into writing programs. ;)

And lastly... your program differs from mine in the respect that it is in the menubar (I installed it just now to check it out), which is nice in it's own way. Keep up the good work, as long as you make at least one person happy out there that is using your program you succeeded at what you were trying to accomplish.
