start-up but the movie NEED to play in full-screen mode with no menu's or
toolbaars displayed as we are playing content that is payed for to
advertise. any program or script that i can use to do this. don't have to be

Hi - perhaps you want a "kiosk" setup. You might want to check out "Windows
Steady State"

It is indeed a information kiosk that we need to run. The advertising
content at the moment need to run in full screen mode obviously but it media
player start-up and it is not in full screen mode. someone need to go and
manually put the video that is playing in full screen mode
