Airplay not full-screen

Hello, my Apple friends. I have a Vizio TV, a 4K Apple TV and an iPhone XS Max (upgraded from my 7 Plus). When I used to stream video (sports, specifically) the video, which is full screen on my phone, is NOT full screen on my TV. This didn't happen with my 7 Plus. I've done everything the same, and have taken all the steps I know of on the TV, Apple TV and phone to try and figure this out. Alas, here I am, watching TV from 2002. (see the attached picture. Sorry it's so dark, but you can see a little bit of the TV frame).


Anyone have a suggestion or two?


You're the best!

it happens when one use airplay mirror rather than airplay from within the app itself which would then not mirror but play full screen, though not all apps support that type of airplay
