    I recently just found out my itunes can't view fullscreen properly. I tried re-installing itunes but the problem persists. I've attached a screenshot of what the problem looks like.

    Does anyone have the same problem? Any suggestions?

    You're watching A bug's Life, that's half the problem right there! Try 300 or maybe some james bond film. If that doesn't work try messing around in the settings menu and seeing what options are available in that. I personally hate iTunes with a burning passion so I don't know what options it does/doesn't have.

    So, you open your video, go into full screen mode, hold in Cmd (apple key) and press 3, and it doesn't work?

    Is there a stretch image option to select?

    Have you changed video drivers recently? I know when I accidentally swapped drivers to some really glitchy ones my video playback was messed up pretty badly. If you have not changed video drivers recently then don't mess around with them now, it might only make things worse.
