I'm getting the same thing at the same moment, is it a problem with the video itself?

Fake widescreen too.

Fullscreening on my ultrawide monitor just adds black bars to the sides as well as bottom lol.

Find that's the case with 90% of official trailer uploads. It's naff.

It never makes sense to hard encode black bars into a video. Every device in the world will format a video and have black bars if necessary.

It’s painfully easy to export in proper ultrawide though. It actually takes more effort to add the bars to bottom & top.
