When I try playing youtube videos using webview, I don't see a fullscreen button

There's only a volume and caption button.



I thought this was a problem of app inventor in general, 


but I saw other people's screenshots that has a fullscreen button.


Does anyone know why my app doesn't have a fullscreen button?




Also, the only way that I know to correctly play youtube videos with webview is to add 


"<uses-sdk android:targetSdkVersion="14" />"


this line to the AnderoidManifest.xml file.


This does work, but are there any other ways to play videos on webview?

For fullscreen, see here

Only way at the moment is to edit the manifest file,as far as I know.
