I am using the Poco F8 Pro with Android 16 BP2A.250605.031.A3 and Xiaomi HyperOS 3.0.8.0. with Brave 1.87.192, Chromium 145.0.7632.160.
When I want to watch a video on YouTube and switch to fullscreen mode, the video is not displayed in full screen. There are black bars visible on three sides, almost half of the screen is black, and the video appears slightly shifted to the left when the phone is in landscape mode.
The problem also occurs in portrait mode. In that case, a similar portion of the screen is black and the video is positioned on the left side.
I deleted all browser data as well as the cache, but that did not change anything.
I also uninstalled and reinstalled the browser. That fixed the issue for a while, but after about a day the fullscreen mode became unusable again.
I have been using the browser for about three months on this new phone.
In addition, when I watch a video in fullscreen mode and then close it, the navigation bar disappears. This means I cannot access the tabs or tab groups anymore.
I hope the problem is described clearly enough so that you can do something with it.
I also have one more request: I would like it to be possible to zoom videos so that they fill the entire screen. When fullscreen mode was still working, there were black bars on the left and right sides. I would love to have a zoom option that allows the video to fill the whole screen, even if that means the video gets slightly cropped.
Thank you very much for your effort and your work.
I am really enthusiastic about your browser.
Thank you.
