With MPC-HC you should use madVR renderer:

Thanks. The readme is unclear though. I went to View>Options and changed DirectShow Video to madvr, but no change. I went to Play>Filters and selected madvr, but that doesn't seem to do anything whatever I select. There's a tutorial but it doesn't sound like it has anything to do with the problem I'm having. It sounds more like some editing features.

Don't ask for support about other players and software on this forum, this is the VideoLAN forum.

I'm not sure if this helps, but I've ran into a new problem. When I try cropping the video as suggested earlier, no amount of cropping the left or right will remove the black bar on the left. For example, if I crop the left by 380px, it removes the right black bar in the screenshot. If I crop the right by 380px, it just doubles the right crop and cuts off part of the image. No matter what I try, the left bar just won't go away. It should be reproducible in the sample.
