scaling isn’t supported, the display may use only a portion of your screen.

Note:
Jerky video file playback may be the result of slow playback or recording. Slow
recording causes frames to be dropped (frames aren’t recorded). If jerky video is caused by
frames that were dropped during recording, the problem can only be fixed by recapturing
the video under better conditions.
