Video is window boxed on my new projector

<< < (4/4)

Here is a quick update on the status of my issue.

I was unable to get 4K resolution at 60Hz using the embedded GPU, even when I used the HDMI cable from my blu-ray player which does playback at 60Hz. So I decided to update my video card to one based on the NVidia 1030. The new card DOES support 60Hz playback and the window boxing is not present when I select a 1920x1080 60Hz configuration for the desktop and allow MC27 to switch to 24 Hz for movie files. However when I select a 4096x2160 60Hz configuration for the desktop, the window boxing reappears for movie files. It is easier to navigate MC27 when the desktop resolution is 4K so it would be nice if that mode did not introduce window boxing.

I still need to work with JVC to understand why the blu-ray player can send a 2160P signal (presumably 3980x2160) that fills my screen completely and the 2160P signal from the PC introduces window boxing.

You might want to examine some test patterns.

It is not possible to fit both 17:9 and 16:9 in the same area without distortion.

If they fit in the same area, one must be distorted or one must be cropped.

Perhaps you don't notice or object to such distortion or cropping.
