When in full screen viewing mode shows grey bars down left and right

I am using photostory on CD & DVD 10 deluxe.  When I am viewing the show in full screen mode it shows a grey bar down the left and right side and black bars across the top and bottom.  This is a new problem for me and I have assemble several slide shows.  I had no problem with this while putting together this slide show and when about half finished suddenly it would not go to full screen without these bars. All photos were taken in 16 X 9 and the monitor is 16 X 9 Help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

Hi

Try exporting a section of the project and viewing this in full screen mode.  I suspect the top bottom bars and side bars are because your monitor is 16:9 and, as the preview has to make room for the transport controls, it is shrinking the video to fit every thing on screen.

I use a 16:10 LCD monitor which gets round the problem.
