Plex is just forwarding the picture as-is. Usually your TV might have an option to zoom/stretch the video. However… as the source isn’t 16:9, the video won’t magically adjust. Zooming/stretching will either cut away parts of the picture (top/bottom) or stretch it so things get out of proportion (content gets “wider”). In the past I’ve experienced that some software used to rip/transcode a movie doesn’t properly maintain information for anamorphic pictures. Those are stored in a format that is supposed to be stretched to fit 16:9 while the actual raw aspect ratio isn’t. From what I remember, VLC used to be more forgiving towards such settings. Not sure if you potentially ran into such a situation?! ---

in that case the short answer is: Plex cannot do it does your 65" 4k tv have an option to zoom/stretch the picture? My (non 65") tv has an option to auto-adjust the image based on the source format it gets. ---
