Video has shrunk in size from fullscreen to narrow. Why?

Postby Video Lanman » 03 Jul 2016 10:39

Hi
A set of Youtube video's I downloaded in the past was playing fine fullscreen,
later a set of them has gone narrow width example like when people
use their smartphone to take narrow video (not sure what you call that).
I have not checked on those videos as this was some time ago but the current newly
downloaded Youtube video's seem to be full size and playing well (normally) consistently on VLC.
I'm still curious why that happened.

Thanks in advance.
