WMP 10.3 - full screen is not really "full"

Hi guys, suggestions please

I am testing a few ROMs in search of a good balance available memory/decent look and I found some pretty nice, but on some ROMs I have this issue:

I stream Videos from my PC using ORB, with WMP 10.3 on some ROMs full screen works great and on others it doesn t scale to fit the screen, leaving a big black border around.

Of course i checked the selection "fit to screen".

Has to be something either with codecs or the ROM settings.

Any strong mind out there able to provide a solution?

Thax a lot.

I am trying to view videos on WMP which shows the black border because WMP cannot zoom while in full screen..not sure if it will help your streaming, but this is my workaround:

Instead of using WMP using the .wmv format, I am using the Album video software to view videos encoded in the .mp4 format. Works in fullscreen like a charm.
