Whats the resolution and real aspect ratio of the plasma? (for example 1024x768 with a 16:9 display)
If the resolution aspect ratio doesn't match the real aspect ratio (as in the above example) you should calibrate the display in MP (i forget where exactly the option is), in order to tell MP that pixels are not square.
If you have already done this, of course make sure you are in Normal zoom mode. Try changing the MPEG-2 codec used and see if that helps.
I cant really help any more than that because you dont provide sufficient details (MP version, codecs used, log files etc).
That was it! :)
I had to set it to "Maintain display scaling". I think it was set to "Maintain Aspect Ratio", which added black bars to MediaPortal when playing videos that didn't conform to a strict 16:9 ratio, I suppose.
Thanks to everyone for the patience and help, I can finally enjoy videos fully.

It took a while but loading the three updates and waiting, (I wandered off doing other things), while the Win 7 searched for updates eventually brought about 170 available updates. I picked the latest, largest and Cumulative ones and everything burst into action enough to re-install MediaPortal 1.33 which is running very well. I let...

Many people found the Lentoid decoder better optimised than LAV for software decoding.
If you want to try it, download it from the link below, run reg.bat as an admin to install it and change the HEVC Video settings in MediaPortal Configuration/Codecs and Renderer...
