**Description of the issue:**

While watching videos in YouTube. Sometimes while tapping the full screen button, the video is not stretching to full screen. Rather it’s getting stuck to a corner of the screen (shown in image). Though it’s not happening every time, it’s frequent.

**How can this issue be reproduced?**

1. Open [https://m.youtube.com/](https://m.youtube.com/)
2. Select any video and play it.
3. Then tap the ful screen button on the down-right corner.
4. You’ll see the video is shrinked to the a corner of the screen. While the rest of the screen is black.
5. Rotating the phone 180° may solve it for that specific video.

**Expected result:**

The video should be stretched completely over the screen.
