Help Slingbox and Screen Mirroring Configuration Question

Hello,

I recently got a slingbox and I am using either my Samsung Note 3 or my Tab A 8 to mirror to my Samsung Smart TV. My question is: why does using my Note result in a full screen mirror, yet with the Tab, I have sidebars? I've tried the available limited settings on the app when I use the Tab, but they do not address this issue. It's not a TV settings issue as it works great with the Note. Any assistance would be appreciated.
