Grey line at the bottom of the screen?

When I'm watching some HDTV-sample videos, there is a grey bar at the bottom of the screen in fullscreen mode. These are not in the video because they work with my friend (he's using windvd).
Any ideas? I wonder what is causing the gray bar and can it be changed to black somehow?

Sorry I forgot this:
the OS is Windows XP and using the latest VLC player.

If you do a search you will find the answer...
But just in case...
The bar you are seeing is caused because mpeg2 has to be divisble by 8 and 1080 does not divide properly so the extra 8 bars are added by the decoder.
Some software apps get rid of the bar...some dont.
