Okay, I know this sounds stupid but lately I been trying out some new VNs on my computer and since my desktop is having problems i've been using my laptop and I never noticed it before since I used XP but my VNs can't go into full screen mode in Win 7 and just centres itself in the middle surrounded by a black frame in its native resolution. I tried to find solutions on the net but so far I couldn't find anything and I just thought that some help might be nice.

I don't know if this means anything but this problem only applies to VNs that are originally in Japanese and requires an install method and not extract and paste.

Well if you have a Nvidia card, you can adjust full screen scaling through the Nvidia control panel. Can probably do the same in the Catalyst control center, but I wouldn't know.

I got an intel one and I tried that method but it's still suck in its native resolution even when in full screen mode but its then stuck in the middle of the screen. I'm not quite sure what the problem is actually since i'm not really used to Win 7 since I been using XP for a few years now and got used to it.

I googled online how to fix this and tired alot of the solutions with no change, maybe this is a problem with 7's OS when it comes to games.

  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Thing is , the videos work fine in the Edge Dev and Canary builds. But whatever the fix they made was, has never been pushed to Beta or Stable builds. Its been that way for as far back as I tested. Which was Edge 84. They are on 125 now.

    @RedColoredStars, Yeah, and I was in quite a mood at that time. I would consider choosing Firefox or Opera instead, been using Firefox for over 7 years now than Chrome.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Tried contacting Nintendo to see if they can reach out to MS about it. But Nintendo said the videos are working fine. Without enough people saying no, they don't work fine, it will never get fixed.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    I have Firefox and used it for many years. But Edge runs noticible faster on my pc at both opening and loading pages.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    I don't think Nintendo will know anything about troubleshooting Edge. They mostly do technical support regarding their console family.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Tell them you downloaded their trailer without permission

    Good one, Ken.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Right. But they could create a ticket that gets forwarded to the proper team. I think Nintendo would care that their videos aren't working on a major browser

    Chrome is like "BRRRRRRRR" but I dislike the fact it's a powerhouse, and the fact that Manifest v3 exists
