Enter full screen mode of iframe vimeo embed will not work on ionic. It will show a white blank screen.

Steps to Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Pretty easy. Please use any iframe embed vimeo video on an ionic project.
Click on "Enter full screen". It will show a white blank screen?

Expected Behavior

full screen mode should be playing video in full screen mode landscape view.

Please fix this error. I think Ionic is incompatible with vimeo's player.js

I found vimeo player can enter full screen mode on iOS.
It doesn't work on Android so need some update here.

I can confirm this issue. However I cannot confirm if this is Ionic issue or Vimeo player issue. I just open an issue with Vimeo regarding this.
Youtube can be full screen but Vimeo cannot!

I hope someone from ionic team will comment on this.

Capacitor has the same issue:

Vimeo can't enter full screen on android.

Same issue here. We're using an app with tabs at the bottom. When I click full screen in a Vimeo video, I can still see the bottom tabs but no content in them (and, of course, the Vimeo video isn't seen). It seems the video is playing BEHIND the app, since I can still hear the audio.

This is our ionic info:

I hope this gets fixed soon. Some people reported the same problem for youtube full screen on android.

It looks like cordova android can't enter full screen from iframe.

This issue has been automatically identified as an Ionic 3 issue. We recently moved Ionic 3 to its own repository. I am moving this issue to the repository for Ionic 3. Please track this issue over there.

If I've made a mistake, and if this issue is still relevant to Ionic 4, please let the Ionic Framework team know!

Thank you for using Ionic!
