If you go to the menu and then to video while watching, next to aspect
ratio you also have filling or something like that (I have to
translate from dutch). It contains automatic, off, half, full, H
stretch, V strecht, H fill and V fill. Maybe you can get it right with
one of those. The same options are also in config to set a default.
