Examples: 1920x1080 or 1280x720.
If the videos on the screen do not belong to this resolution, the screen stretches the video in the total available area and will calculate the proportion available for the video.
For videos other than 16: 9, only part of the video will be displayed in the available content area.
It is recommended that if it contains a 16: 9 aspect ratio and changes with the layout, the main area to play video from is a 16: 9 aspect ratio.
