Video is squished vertically

Hi! I'm running the latest LibreELEC on a raspberry pi 4 with a 4096x2160 projector.

The Kodi interface itself and every video I play has narrow black bars at the top and the bottom, even when the aspect ratio is the same as the projector. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! When I have booted into a terminal directly on the raspberry pi, it filled the whole screen with no bars so I think it is Kodi.

Confirmed the picture is squished by projecting an image of a perfect square and measuring. It was about 20.75" tall x 22.25" wide instead of being a perfect square. When I use my Ubuntu laptop as a source the image is a perfect square.

Try removing the 4096 modes from the whitelist, leaving only the 3840 "4K" modes. Any better?
