Dumb question- RED monitor cropping playback

[Antonio Forjaz]

Sorry for the dumb question, but suddenly, I am not sure what I did, but when I playback what I have just shot, it is cropped at the top and the bottom on the RED LCD (5.6 in)... what setting have I changed? How do I get it back to normal?
When I exit playback it goes back to full frame (no crop)???

Push the buttons on top, one controls the crop/zoom. I forget which!

This is what happens, I shoot, I don't move camera, then I playback and can you see the difference? I have tried all the buttons you mention above.
