Youtube full screen problem?

Ok so since I have updated Chrome recently I have had the problem of when I watch YouTube videos in full screen the video will not fill the screen properly and leave me with a reverse L of either black or white (Depends on the resolution for the black or white).

I'm not exactly sure what to do ive tried disabling the hardware acceleration refreshing and re-enabling it but to no avail all my flash players that i know of are up to date so I'm kinda at a loss any ideas???

Also under the stats for nerds option under right click that they have its says the the aspect ratio is 854x480 which if i do see aright should be the same as my comps resolution which is quite a bit more but also i don't know how to change the resolution for the shockwave player.

    The obvious solution *IS* to disable "hardware acceleration" and keep it that way.

    There's really no logical reason for it - nevermind why you even re-enabled it after.

    The other thing is that there is absolutely nothing wrong with having your player's

    resolution at 854x480. That is the standard on practically everybody's computers,

    and is completely unrelated to your *computer's* resolution (which measures the

    entire screen of your computer).

    report the problem try a different browser. Or get an earlier version of Chrome before the problem, if all else fails try Firefox/safari/Opera
