Is there a way..or can a feature be added to make the top an bottom bars permanently black? the gray color is extremely annoying when watching a movie in a dark room..and having to navigate everytime to turn off the black bars isnt fun.

 

Thanks

I noticed also on a 16:9 formatted movies the gray bars are blocking the picture...so this more of a reason why this feature needs to be off.

 

I really dont even understand why this feature is even there, it does nothing useful..again, is there a way disable or get rid of this feature? Its urking me more and more

Aa you can see in the first pick the Top and Bottom bars are grey, then I go and select the screen expansion and they go away.  This is happens to all movies. I have 4 Xbox's in  the house now, 4 different accounts...all but one is set to "default" settings, they all have the same exact issue.

Hi @@Lamista

 

On the HTPC at least the app remembers if you are in full screen or not (@@FrostByte ?) When you open the app is it fullscreen?  I have the below

By clicking on the arrows the app and video playback always runs in full screen

 

Don't know if this helps, Frostbyte maybe able to shed some additional light.

Vicpa, XB1 apps don't really have a windowed/maximize option at the top like in Windows.  I think that option is just to stretch a video
