Is it possible to fullscreen a .flv file that is loaded dynamically into a swf file? I see it done with flv’s on an html page, but not sure how do to it in flash. Any help would be appreciated.

BTW: i tried the fullscreen overlay but when I use it in the browser i get this error:

SecurityError: Error #2152: Full screen mode is not allowed.
