Why is this happening?
The video that is, why isn't it covering the full screen
Is this VLC being shit? What media player can I use to not have to deal with such

>included black bars in video
>>40511903
YIFI.
>>40511912
but why would anyone do that
>>40511943
To advertise fake 1080p?
>>40511957
fuck

>not understanding that if the black bars are in the source it's probably best to keep them
It's probably just a cinematic thing done at the start of the film anyway. They did the first minute or so of the Simpsons Movie with a 4:3 aspect ratio for muh continuity IIRC.
>YIFY
Well theirs your problem.
>>40511993
This is why we put aspect ratio in the metadata.
Black bars are not needed.
>>40511993
There are no movie with vert and hor black bars all along the movie. I don't think OP is stupid enough to have not seen the rest of the video (even if he DL'd YIFI).
>>40512009
Such new.
>>40512007
Sending data along with your data to tell the device how to use that data?
Jesus fucking christ you're some kind of revolutionary.
>mfw scene still cannot into metadata.
>>40511957
i cant fucking believe this
>>40512019
such out of the loop
>FTFY

Change VLC's background colour so you can tell where the video ends and VLC's background begins.

Just checked. It is a cinematic thing, the aspect ratio is intentionally boxed in at the start. OPs post is medium tier bait.

The problem I have with it is black bars usually detract little from the bitrate, (being static and simple) and if they are kept then the film can be burned to AVCHD/BD etc without needing to re-encode.
1080p and 720p actually are standards, but only at 1920/1440x1080p and 1280x720p.
