Would it be possible to display fullscreen video when using apples lightning to HDMI adapter?

(https://www.amazon.com/Apple-Lightning-Digital-Adapter-MD826AM/dp/B009WHV3BM)

 

When using the adapter with YouTube and Netflix the video fills the screen.

When connected and used with emby, while video and audio will play it looks a screen mirror of the iPad rather than the method the YouTube and Netflix apps use.

I'd love this feature if possible.

Am I doing something wrong? It just mirros my screen.
Apps like YouTube and Netflix stream in 1080p and your phone becomes kind of a remote while using the adapter. This doesn't happen with emby app.

Ok on iOS 11+ the experience will be better. But for iOS 9 & 10, at this point that's as far as we're going to take it, so yes it's only a screen mirror.
