Loading MediaPlayer as fullscreen in c# .net

I'm trying to open a new form from my main form. After selecting the video to play, I want the player to be fullscreen without clicking any button.

When i tried to add axWindowsMediaPlayer.fullscreen = true in constructor or axWindowsMediaPlayer_Load (or _Enter), it gives an error, saying "It's a very dangerous error".

But on the other hand when I add a button called fullscreen, and pasting axWindowsMediaPlayer.fullscreen = true code in it, it works, but that's not how I want it to be.

Isn't there a way to do it without clicking? By the way, I used timer method, but it gives the same error.

Use PlayStateChange event. The code below detects the change in play state then change to fullscreen if the video is playing. 

private void axWindowsMediaPlayer1_PlayStateChange(object sender, AxWMPLib._WMPOCXEvents_PlayStateChangeEvent e)
    {
        if (this.axWindowsMediaPlayer1.playState == WMPLib.WMPPlayState.wmppsPlaying)
        {
            this.axWindowsMediaPlayer1.fullScreen = true;
        }
    }
