Most players (including Windows media player) can be resized up to full screen. The two problems with larger sized rendering are:

1. Performance limits of the hardware (processor, disk, memory, graphics card) - will manifest as reduced frame rates, momentary "freezing", incomplete update of regions of the image.

2. Resolution limits in the source media. A lot of downloadable clips are made at reduced resolution / frame rates simply to make the files smaller for faster download. Beyond a certain sized playback you will start to see the limits of what was encoded to begin with.

Off Topic....viewing computer videos

I have been wondering if it is possible to do something to make viewing video on my computer better thru realplayer of winplayer at a bigger screen size. Would a better videocard do this?

Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated
