this isn't specific to this phone as ive been having this problem with android in general. but maybe someone knows a trick to get specific apps to fill the fullscreen. i use DirectTV Stream, Hulu, Netflix, Showtime, HBO Max and Prime Video. The only app the has a zoom function is Prime Video. all my other apps play with black bars on the left and right. i think its just crappy apps and lazy android developers because some of these have a zoom function on iOS. only DirectTV Stream and HBO Max don’t.
anyways does anyone know if its possible to force fullscreen streaming? what app does sony use to showoff the fullscreen 4k movies in their ads for the 1 iii? and some reviews showed movie clips in fullscreen. thx if you know.
I think you just make a typical two-finger "zoom in" (i.e. two fingers apart) motion. It will then crop the image (assuming it's not 21:9-ish source) to fill the screen

maybe im not doing the two-finger motion correctly, but it hasn't worked for me. i think only with the youtube app. i'll try again.
two finger gesture doesn't work on at least hulu, directtv stream and showtime. isn't anyone else bothered by this? i even tried the one finger salute. lol
what apps stream video/movies in fullscreen on android specifically xperia 1 iii?
I've noticed that Prime Video pinch-to-zoom doesn't work on my X1M3 (though Zoom is available in the hamburger/three dot menu); finger pinch zoom works on my S9, so that may have been some additional functionality Samsung included. Perhaps.
As far as other apps - Netflix pinch to zoom works perfectly, as does YouTube, iPlayer and Disney+. And wow, 2:1 and particularly 2.39:1 theatrical aspect stuff looks stunning on this screen!
4K HDR will be in full screen .

So, I've been pretty disappointed to know that the Nexus 4, 7 and 10 have no 16:9 aspect ratios, which means that widescreen videos will have black bars displaying on the top.
Currently, on my iPhone 4S and 3rd generation iPad, I can double tap and "crop" the video, and this makes the video fill up the entire screen and videos looks really nice. However, on a Galaxy Note and a Galaxy S III, I've tried doing the same thing but they refuse to crop.
Is there something that I am missing or is there no double tap to zoom at all? Thanks.

Mx player has pinch to zoom in videos. I don't think it's there in stock players!
No such option in stock players as far as i know. Double tap will most likely only pause/unpause the video
Thanks guys, I will try out MX Player!
Hello,
so I noticed that the default YouTube had a button with two arrows, that when viewing videos in landscape mode you could press, so that video zooms in a bit, so there is no black bars on the sides.
But with YouTube app update the button disappeared!
1. So have you noticed it?
2. And what can be done about it, or who could be contacted about it?
To view videos with truly full screen was really nice! I want that back!

In new youtube version, It become "pinch to stretch"
Try to pinch your screen like you want to do zoom, it will become full screen
Hi All
This is a very old app. And it works very well still, could someone help me how to make the S10 + full screen.
I have enabled the entire screen in the settings, but cut the surface of the camera hole. This area is cut off in other applications, but it is particularly irritating in a video. The factory player and the youtube work in full screen I think the apk can't do it.

On my Samsung s9+, using the "Smart View" feature allows me to view the screen and video (from, for instance, the TiVo app) on my fire stick. On my M5, using the "MirrorShare" feature, the screen sharing works right up till video starts playing, then all I see mirrored are the video controls, but not the video itself, it is all black (the sound comes through though). Anyone know why this would be? Is the M5 screen resolution too high to display on a 1080 fire stick or something? (But the samsung has a higher resolution than 1080 display too). Just curious. I can stick with the phone for screen sharing for now.
Hi,
I was testing the super slow video and after the record i found that the video look like frame interpolation... It is like in TV when you maximize motion plus etc some fake frames are inserted and you can see artifacts on moving objects. The same behave i was able to get when i was using gorpo app to make super slow motion form 60FPS. Anyone know what is the speed that samsung is using to capture super slow video? 240fps? As for the reference i was using s10+ for the same video that i paste the link below and there was no artifacts, just clear items floating in glass. On video below that is recorded via 23u you can see artifacts on closer side of the glass... That is very strange... Can't belivethat flagship is using frame interpolation for super slow video...

EDIT:
I found the answer on samsung website:
On Galaxy S23 Series, users can record approximately 0.5 second of video captured at 240fps and digitally enhance the video to 960fps with approximately 16 seconds of playback. Playback time can be edited in Super Slow-mo player.
So no true 960fps like in s10+ but digitally enhanced so frame interpolation.... That is downgrade actually when you want to record really fast objects like in vide that i posted
Probably, but that's not necessarily a drawback
@zSyntex
But with fast moving objects it creates artefacts like in my video. I was using quite often super slow motion in work to and never have issue like this on s10+. I know that it is just a phone and i have special camera that capture 5000fps but it is quite sophisticated and time consuming to set it up, phone was quicker and sometimes shows what i need without special equipment.

Of course, it's like frame insertion or like the TV interpalotaion for 120Hz content.
But probably it will be more difficult to achieve high frame with these resolutions
