Have you tried video calibration in both settings>system and in the OSD there is a video calibration while the film is up? Hit the keybaord 'z' a few times to ensure you are in normal mode? Suspect at this point is the scalier and rendering method.

If VLC works well, then the big difference between Kodi and VLC is that in VLC they use software rendering by default. Suggestion try software rendering (toggle DXVA) and tell us how that works out.

The issue starts at line 1207, driver issue? Try setting up in full screen border-less windowed mode, see if that works out.

I actually have this issue with my Sony. It defaults the resolution to 1080P and I get a real pixelated display when going to windowed mode. When I set it back to full screen mode again, the Menu at center is across the entire screen, but the video is small and in the upper left side. I have to fix this by going into Settings and changing the resolution back to 1080i (and for some reason, it doesn't stay if I set to windowed mode again).
I've looked everywhere for the issue and tested my video card and no mention of anything like this. It's a minor inconvenience, so I deal with not going to windowed mode anymore. Hehe.

Thanks, everyone your help, I did find a temporary fix for now unless there is better solution
The issue happens when I play a 4K file (3820X2160p), once I stop playback Kodi interface shrink with Black Bars on the left and right on the screen, the only way to get the Black Bars disappear and have the proper resolution for 2D playback is to play 3D MVC movie.
So playing a 3D MVC file seems to resolve the Black Bars on Kodi Interface and 2D playback.
