Restoring Currently Playing Movie (1 Viewer)

Moving Pictures 0.6.1
Generic Skin that comes bundled, 16x9 version.

I don't believe this is a bug, rather I am just missing something obvious.

While watching a movie, if I hit the back button on my remote it goes back to the Moving Pictures interface, with a small thumbnail of the currently playing movie. This is expected, but at this point I can't find a way to restore the movie back to full screen. I cannot seem to give focus using the directional buttons on the remote. However if I go back to another plugin (Music for example), I can then manage to give focus to the thumbnail and select it, thus restoring it to full screen. I feel like I must be missing something obvious where I can't do this from Moving Pictures.

Thanks for any advice,
Travis

EDIT: I realize I can accomplish this with a mouse, however I do not normally have a mouse and keyboard attached to the machine in question, only an IR sensor. I would like to accomplish this with only a remote control.

I believe you can go back to fullscreen using one of the coloured buttons if your remote has it.

I think it is the red one.

Out of the top of my head

Blue = aspect ratio
yellow = subtitles
red = fullscreen toggle

I don't have a red button on my remote, but with that information I was able to configure an unused button on my remote to do the same thing as the red button. Thanks!
