Zoom video recordings black side border

I'm working on a course for Udemy with a colleague, and in my test videos, they complain about the border around the video. Is there a setting to get rid of that border, or does anyone have a fix using Adobe elements editing to get rid of the border?

 

Thanks!

Unfortunately, that is just the built-in background behind all videos. If more participants are on video, then more video tiles appear, but the black background will remain behind and around all videos. 

They can maximize the Zoom window to allow the video to take up more space on their screen, but there will still be some black around the edges. 

 

Hope that helps and please make sure to mark the solution as accepted if this information is what you needed.

Can you provide a screenshot of which black border you're referring to?

In this case, it's actually all the way around the video.
