Video Player for a Canopus ADVC110?

I purchased a Canopus ADVC110 Video Capture Device at the Apple Store in town, and it works great using iMovie or Quicktime to capture video and audio.

My question is, Does anyone know of a free or cheap video player that can go full screen and let me set this thing as the Video Source? I sometimes use it to watch TV on my second monitor without recording but iMovie or Quicktime Preview don't allow me to go full screen.

Any ideas?

A bunch of views and nobody knows of software that can select the video input device and go full screen? I would have expected one of the video buffs to pipe up by now

I just looked up what it is you are using, unfortunately there is no way to get a firewire source to play full screen with out capturing it first. This is because the idea of firewire is only to transfer the data to the computer, not to use it as a method of viewing, which is why what you are seeing is just a preview of what it will look like, not its actual quality when you are capturing.

I don't want to sound argumentative, but I think that your answer is a bit broad in saying that there is no way to go full screen because it's firewire. I think it's more accurate to say that there's no way in most (maybe all) apps that support video from the device. For example, I can see the video, even if it is a preview mode not showing full quality, at different sizes in iMovie. If I make iMovie take up the entire screen, the preview gets pretty big. The fact that it can size it from pretty small to the large size it does in the iMovie indicates that the video is resizable. That being the case, I think this is strictly a software issue and has nothing to do with the fact that it's firewire. If an applications exists, or someone chose to write one, I see no reason it couldn't go full screen. If nothing exists that can do it, I can certainly accept and believe that.
