How to watch videos in MilkVR using the GearVR? - Samsung Gear VR

I have got some videos, in 180, but in the simple GearVR app i can only watch them with the black sides, because it plays them as a 360 video, is there any option to make it 180 headtracking?

You have to select the proper video type in the milkVR player while the video is playing. There is an icon on the menu that pops up when you touch the touchpad. Keep pressing the video type button until it is the correct format.

Find a full Screen Video Play.

I hope it has a video player like apple's. After click a key, the picture will be stretched at top and bottom. The left and right side will be cut a little. Note screen is 1280*800, but the 720p is 1280*720. if have this, it will be full screen.

I searched all over how do i get Widescreen !

I Just got my Chromecast today but when I play a video from my phone or desktop on hardwire I get flucreen (black bars on the side). I enabled 720p playback on extension, auto resizing with no results. the home screen is not widescreen and the youtube videos even 1080p ones are still in this squished fullscreen. how do I get it to resize?
I just figured it out, on my insignia I need to switch to wide mode. forgot I changed it do to Ouya.

Save Motion Photo?

I really like the Motion Photo feature (a couple of seconds of video leading up to the photo). Is there any way of saving this to share? Like a nonlooping gif or something?
I havnt found of a way to share it as a non gif but buy using the screen capture gif option it does a fairly good job
Update: tries to post it doesn't work on here
Bumping this, I have the same issue sharing a motion photo, I don't an option. I can play them on my phone, but can't share them.
Bumping
One the photo with the Play Motion Photo button - Click the button and the movie will play. Press on the screen to pause the video and you get options at the top "CAPTURE", "DELETE", and the 3 Dot Menu. Select the 3 Dot Menu and you can SAVE VIDEO. Saves as MP4 video.
Going to need to share the videos on non-SMS chatting apps.

Wow thanks!
But on my S8+ and S7E it was possible to select photo or video.
Thanks for the pause and save workaround
This app worked for my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. I can save the MP4, share it, or create an animated GIF. I was not able to get the 3-dot menu (maybe a US thing):
