Thanks to both of you for looking into this and confirming this. :)

(I'm really looking forward to the Meizu device!)

More data: if I rotate the device to landscape, there’s no white bar. Rotating back to portrait restores the white bar though, it doesn’t "fix" the issue.

Also, if I trigger the fullscreen action while in landscape and then rotate to portrait, the white bar takes almost the entire bottom-half of the screen (see attached screenshot).

I just updated my arale to oxide 1.7.4, and the issue seems to be gone. However the video is cropped when rotating to landscape after entering fullscreen, so that would be a regression.

And I can confirm the regression described in the comment above (video cropped when rotated in landscape) wasn’t present in 1.7.3.
