VLC forces all videos to be the same size - cannot resize them

All videos I try to play with vlc are fixed with the same size, I can't resize them forcing to zoom in or out to fit the window.

Tried to purge config folder, unistalling and reinstalling.
With other video players the videos are working perfectly as expected.

vlc version 2.2.1+git20160310+r58688+34+15~ubuntu15.10.1

kernel version 4.2.0-34-generic #39-Ubuntu SMP Thu Mar 10 22:13:01 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
