Apple tv app aspect ratio wrong on LG TV

Hi


I watched Defending Jacob on apple tv app on my lg oled and it was full screen, no bars top and bottom.


Backed out of episode and then pressed resume and it had bars top and bottom.


I fixed it by doing this, but it shouldn't have done it in the first place. Has anyone else noticed this happen?


Perhaps a bug on the internal TV app that Apple have yet to address?


Thanks

There is a zoom-to-fit option on the Apple TV set-top box, to zoom the amount needed to not have letterbox bars. That viewing property would be temporary for the currently playing title, and would not retain after backing out.


Possibly that option also exists on the Apple TV app on smart TVs?

Possibly that option was activated accidentally.
