Seems like it’s gotta be a setting on your TV/monitor/video player or something. I grab almost exclusively Remuxes and I’ve never seen what you’re describing.

as a example: https://imgur.com/a/VBnr9V6 In this example the top and bottem black bars are rather small but i have movies which take up almost half the screen using those bars. The left and right black bars i am fine with. thats due to my monitor being ultrawide (5120x1440)
I play the videos on my PC with jellyfin media player. But it also does this in any browser.
That looks like an imax release, maybe the top/bottom black bars are on the Blu-ray it was ripped from to make it fit 16:9? Since it's a remux they shouldn't have touched it to remove the bars.
Is it 1080p video? Your screenshot seems to be super low res so I can’t make out much detail but it’s probably just playing at the video’s native resolution. Probably need to set a option to allow scaling to window/screen.
Not 1080p. It is 5120x1440p monitor with a 4K movie. Scaling to window size doesnt work.
