Android open youtube in fullscreen mode

Hi,

I am not so sure on this solution but you can try, For this you have to make change in the android manifest file. The activity corresponding to the video intent just add this below line in it.

android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen"

and check that it works or not.

Regards

Thanks for the reply, Nikunj!

I am not making a new activity for this intent. Just adding it to current activity -

Ti.Android.currentActivity.startActivity(intent);

Where can I add the style then? Can I add soemthing to the intent?

This is my code in brief-
```
var intent = Ti.Android.createIntent({
                action: Ti.Android.ACTION_VIEW,                
                data: 'vnd.youtube:' + appFile
                   });
             Ti.Android.currentActivity.startActivity(intent);
//
```

i would suggest to add this inside the android manifest file with the current activity

Well, the problem is that I am using Titanium for development. So, there is no android manifest file. It is integrated with Tiapp.xml.

I declare one activity

 <application>
                <!--android:icon ="Icon-72@2x.png" android:label="XX" -->
                <activity android:alwaysRetainTaskState="true"
                    android:configChanges="keyboardHidden|orientation"
                    android:label="XXAndroid"
                    android:name=".activity.XXAndroidActivity" android:theme="@style/Theme.Titanium">
                    <intent-filter>
                        <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN"/>
                        <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER"/>
                    </intent-filter>
                </activity>

            </application>

So, I dont know where to add the style.theme for fullscreen?
