My usual workaround with compiz zoom don't longer work under gnome shell.I got nvidia card but this screenshot is from ati so it's no hardware specific. Plese help! crawling under the desk just to watch video is not an option!

I have the same problem. Please fix it!!! :)

I use http://www.ubunturoot.com/2011/07/fullscreen-flash-video-with-dual.html as a work around and I can finally enjoy Florence and the Machine in Between Two Lungs (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1Z3R3KwldU)!!!

well this is not a fix, but its any easy workaround for chrome. I just right-clicked on the youtube video and clicked pop out,then maximized the popout, works great:popcorn:

Well... I have the same problem, but is only in Chrome, I can go full screen in firefox.

There is an extension for chrome that may solve that problem:

You can disable the PepperFlash and enable the NPAPI plugin in chrome://plugins. BTW, the problem with fullscreen is no longer an issue with the most recent version of Chrome. However, dual monitor has always been problematic with flash.
