Python + OpenCV + Tkinter playing video help

[Hanban]

Hey, all.
So here's my problem:
I need a GUI to get a live webcam stream from openCV (or just open a video file), pass it to the Tkinter GUI window, and add some buttons and stuff to it.
when I run the code and play the video, the video plays with proper FPS (same speed as just opening it with winows media player), however, the video window is small.
It's very important that i get the video to full screen dimentions, perhaps a tad less so I can still see the GUI button.

If i try to resize the video for full screen, by adding 
self.current_image= self.current_image.resize([2560,1440],PIL.Image.ANTIALIAS), my FPS drop and video is playing very slowly.

going with self.root.attributes("-fullscreen",True) , the window just goes full screen but the video size itself is same. so that's no good either.

How can I fill the screen with the video while keeping proper FPS? is it a code error or just slow processing?

here is the code: thanks evryone

I could be wrong here, but I think you're attempting to resize the area you are grabbing from the camera. However, you should be stretching the image after grabbing the normal resolution camera feed. Equally, you'd need to increase the Tkinter GUI window size after to make it match. If possible, resize the camera feed image to match the window size variables. Although, you may get aspect ratio problems then, so that'd be the next thing to improve upon.

All the best,
