[No spoilers] Noticing grey letterboxing (not black) while watching GoT on HBOGo

I was watching GoT in the dark when I noticed that the letterboxing in HBOGo (on Chrome at least) is grey (#0f0f0f) not black. Here's what I mean: https://imgur.com/a/gkg6N. It's not a big deal and maybe this is just to fit in with HBOGo's dark theme, but you can definitely notice in the darker scenes when the actual content is darker than the surrounding bars.

Anyway, I wanted to share my fix:

1. [Ctrl] + [Shift] + i (open the element inspector)
2. [Ctrl] + f : search for "rgb(15, 15, 15)"
3. Replace the second occurrence with "rgb(0, 0, 0)"
4. All done!

Has this been bothering anyone else? If so, did the above fix work?
