[Kodi 17] Android bottom black bar in video playback only - tweeto - 2016-11-18

Hi guys,

I found this right after signing up for beta on Android:

There is a black bar at the bottom of the screen only during video playback and regardless of add-ons or video types, the black bar is the size of the Android navigation bar and shows up permanently during playback even when the navigation bar is not visible.

The wired thing is that the interface is not affected and shows up correctly and full screen with out the black bar, this only affects the video playback.

The last 3 pictures are from kodi 16 for comparison:

Already fixed since a while.
I'd have sworn the fix was already in latest beta...

That's was quick, hope to see it in the next beta, 17 is far more stable for me than 16, thanks.

I am running v17 Beta 5 and I have the same issue. I will note that Beta 4 did not have this problem.

Just a follow up on this. I just loaded v17 beta 6 from the playstore and the issue has been resolved. Great job dev's keep up the awesome work.
