fullscreen in youtube have scaling issues, it's currently on both Dev and Canary

Using Canary version as my daily driver:

Version 85.0.564.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)

It's been a while since I noticed this, now it's also present in the current Dev build.
 

 the video seems like it scaled for low res, even though I'm in 4k

This happens when you are already in a video and click on any video links on the sidebar for your next queue. If you press F for fullscreen, you'll see the scaling issue is messed up. This doesn't happen on Chrome Canary.

I hope it gets fixed soon, it's really annoying refreshing the video to get the correct scaling. This only happens on youtube.

    Still encountering same bug. On latest Dev build. Only fix is to refresh the page every time this happens.

      Haven't had this in some time now, not sure if that's due to reinstalling an Insider Win10 build for an unrelated reason.

    Hi, can also confirm I am getting this bug also.

    Running Edge Version 85.0.564.13 (Official build) dev (64-bit)

    I'm running at 2560x1440p

    Sometimes the fullscreen works correctly, other times it wont work for ages. Hard to reproduce.
  • Make sure share this issue through Feedback option in Microsoft Edge , so Microsoft Edge team could investigate.
