FullScreen4Free is a tool that allows you to run the
QuickTime in full screen mode.
In normal conditions, Apple supplies a player for your video material named QuickTime but without the possibility to run it in full screen mode. That functionality is reserved for the users who pay for a Professional license of QuickTime.
This program make a little change of Apple's plans. You can run movies with QuickTime without the need to purchase a Pro license by using this tool. It runs a small AppleScript which enables this kind of functionality.
All you have to do is to install this small application and run it. FullScreen4Free itself is pretty simple. You have to launch the application and if QuickTime isn't running, you can launch the player from FullScreen4Free main window. After this, you can load a movie in the QuickTime and then press the 'Click here to play it in full screen' button. In the fullscreen mode you have access to the main movie controls through a small and stylish panel.
When the movie is over you can press the small button with the two arrows in the control panel in order to exit from the full screen mode. The QuickTime returns in the normal window mode and you can continue your regular activities.
Pluses: it's a free way to see movies in full screen mode with QuickTime.
Drawbacks / flaws: using it for the first time may be a little annoying.
In conclusion: if you don't like to pay for a QuickTime Professional license in order to see your movies in full screen mode then this tool is a must.
