I recently got a new 4K monitor and now whenever I play a video on this monitor, VLC only displays the video in the upper left quarter of the screen, when it's running in a window or full screen. When running in a window, the video display is actually somewhat falls slightly outside (to the left) of the main VLC window.
The resolution of the video makes no difference.
I tried a different player, Media Player Classic Home Cinema, and it plays it perfectly, but I would rather figure out how to get VLC to work.
I am running Windows 10 with a GTX 1060 video card.
I have completely no idea where to even start looking to troubleshoot this, I've done a fair amount of googling but haven't found anyone else with this problem.

Does your setup have dual-monitors? VLC will use the resolution of the main screen.

It does, and the main screen is 4K. Regardless, wouldn't it adjust as you switch screens?

But, VLC is opening on the main (4K) screen, yet displaying in 1080....??? Surely it's capable of playing 4K content?

I believe that this is a known problem with VLC on a computer with dual monitors.
For best results the two monitors should have the same resolution.
As VLC is a Qt application, you might try to create an environment variable
called QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR
with the value of 0
You might also raise the question on the
The VideoLAN Forums,
where you might get an answer from the developer.
