    I might be hanging myself by posing this question, but I was asked by someone and I truly like to know the answer myself for certain:
    I have a Passport, and we all know about the screen aspect when watching video in reference to the large borders prohibiting full screen display.
    But those conditions don't seem to carry over for "still picture" viewing.
    Question is: it's been a while since the device launch, could this have been addressed in a software update or by a Third party app, (especially in reference to personal video not copywritten; i.e. not You Tube). Or better yet, is there a present solution I'm not aware of. To me, it's somewhat an unnecessary hindrance to a otherwise great device.

    Thank you, "Still Pictures Viewing" I'm okay with, my main question is in viewing video and the large black borders.

    Well you could just zoom-in until it fits the whole screen (and miss half the content)

    Yeah, that's been done.....I was looking for a better alternative. Do you know of one?

    In that case find a video player that can squeeze 16:9 content to 1:1, there is no way to make the passport a good media consumption device.
    Magic does not exist.
    Watch the content on something else.
