How to see MLB.TV full screen in Mac

After 2006, mlb.tv only supports windows media player format. It makes a lot of Mac users suffer in watching mlb.tv. In order to workaround this, two little programs are required to download, Flip4Mac and QuickTime FS. After downloading and installing, here are the instruction to see the mlb.tv in full screen.
  1. Go to the mlb.tv and now you can see the game in the default small screen.
  2. Use right button to adjust setting to "Launch Quicktime player" (I do not remember the exact word in the setting menu).
  3. Shut out your firefox (browser), and reopen it to mlb.tv.
  4. This time the quicktime player should launch in a new window rather than playing in the browser.
  5. Run QuickTime FS. In its window menu, press Quicktime FS, and then go Full screen.
Note: for the QuickTime FS, there also have the widget for download and it is even easier to use.
