I don't wanna touch the add/remove option. im not sure exactly how to go about installing packages anyway. If there is a forum that will answer this question i would love to see it please. I also want the mplayer and vic plugins later on. other than than that i have no idea how to use ydl properly.

So - yes - you might be seeing a black border now, but if you switch to fullscreen mode - the edges of the screen will probably go beyond the edges of your monitor - which is more annoying.
As for using YDL properly, any Red Hat beginners guide to Linux should help you.
