I have some sort of video stabilization enabled on my PC that I did not do myself. Doesn't have to do with browsers as the problem appears in multiple browsers and the Movie Player. Essentially the problem is two things:
The letterboxing seems to be consistently the same, making video get cut off for what i imagine is supposed to be widescreen. In some cases with moving footage, the video will tilt or zoom in, in order to have stabilization. Image related to the former, the video is cut off. Another thing, the problem SOMETIMES goes away when in fullscreen and only in fullscreen, but sometimes it doesn't go away. Any idea what's causing this? Couldn't find anything online. plz help lulz

It seems like the issue is related to video scaling, possibly due to the Graphics Driver settings or a feature that is enabled by default causing image distortion and cut-off. Here are some steps you can try to address this problem: 1. Graphics Driver Settings: - Update your graphics drivers. Visit the manufacturer's website (NVIDIA, AMD, or Intel) to download and install the latest graphics drivers for your GPU. 2. Disable Hardware Acceleration: - In some cases, disabling hardware acceleration in the browser or video player settings might help. Check if the issue persists after disabling hardware acceleration. 3. Aspect Ratio Settings: - Check for any aspect ratio settings in your Graphics Control Panel if you are...

Aspect Ratio Settings: - Check for any aspect ratio settings in your Graphics Control Panel if you are using an NVIDIA or AMD GPU. Adjust the aspect ratio settings to match your display. 4. Video Player Settings: - Configure video player settings to ensure that the aspect ratio is set correctly. Look for settings related to zoom, aspect ratio, or video stabilization in your video player. 5. Display Properties: - Right-click on the Desktop, go to Display Settings, and make sure the screen resolution and scaling are set appropriately to match your monitor's native resolution. 6. Windows Settings: - Go to Settings > System > Display in Windows 10 and verify that the scaling and layout settings are set correctly. 7. Reset Display Settings: - If you have made recent changes to display settings, try resetting them to default and check if the issue persists. 8. Other Troubleshooting: - Run a full system scan for malware and viruses. - Test the same videos on another device or different applications to isolate the issue further. If none of these methods resolve the issue, consider reaching out to the manufacturer's support for your GPU or the application support forums for specific assistance on video stabilization and aspect ratio settings on your system.
