JellyFin Theater App will not full-screen properly - Ubuntu/Debian/Linux Installer - npm

[alextomko]

Helllo - I have this issue on Ubuntu 16.04 running the JellyFin Theater App. Although I can double click the App and it opens to full-screen it leaves a black side-bar to the left and right top and bottom which stays during the movies so it is not really full-screen.

For example see attached screen shot of running the application with "npm start":

Then here is the example after double-clicking where it goes into semi-full-screen with black edges but crops out part of the application window on left and right:

It would be fine if it would be a true full-screen by double clicking but it cuts out part of the application on left and right along with it cuts out part of the movie on left and right and top and bottom.

@alextomko I'm also experiencing issues on MacOS. I'm currently refactoring WindowState related methods to simplify things a bit and allow fullscreen on maximize and exit fullscreen on Escape for every OS.
Stay tuned!

I think that what I'm seeing on Sway (tiling) is related to this; the Jellyfin content doesn't seem to be 'attached' or 'part of' to the main window but a separate one. I can even move them separately.

The main window, titled 'Jellyfin Theater', is completely black. The content window, titled 'Dashboard' (turns out this changes depending on where you navigate to, e.g. 'Music', 'Jellyfin', 'Movies', ...), has the Jellyfin interface. The 'Dashboard' is initially spawned as floating on Sway, which doesn't normally happen unless it's something like a modal dialog. Attempting to put focus on the main window forces it back to the content window though.

Almost a year later and it still does not work on ubuntu 18.04 :(

I don't think anyone has as much as touched this during this year. Feel free to contribute fixes ;)

Seems to be a tightly linked to #11
