Fullscreen VideoView isn't Centered

I use this XML layout to show a fullscreen VideoView on my activity. The Video is fullscreen but it isn't centered. In landscape mode, it stays on the left side of the screen and leaves some blank spaces on the right side of the screen.

How can I make my VideoView placed in the center of the screen?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
 <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
           android:layout_width="fill_parent"
           android:layout_height="fill_parent" >
   <VideoView android:id="@+id/myvideoview"
             android:layout_width="fill_parent"
             android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
             android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
             android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
             android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
             android:layout_height="fill_parent">
    </VideoView>
 </RelativeLayout>

If your VideoView cannot center in RelativeLayout you can try to put it into a FrameLayout like this:

<FrameLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

    <VideoView
        android:id="@+id/video_view"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:layout_gravity="center">
    </VideoView>

</FrameLayout>

And then put this into RelativeLayout.

Try this layout, 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
  xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"              
  android:layout_width="wrap_content"
  android:layout_height="wrap_content"
  android:layout_gravity="center"
  android:gravity="center">



         <VideoView android:id="@+id/videoview"
         android:layout_width="wrap_content"
         android:layout_height="wrap_content"
         android:layout_centerInParent="true"/>

</RelativeLayout>

           android:layout_height="fill_parent" >
   <VideoView android:id="@+id/myvideoview"
             android:layout_width="fill_parent"
             android:layout_height="fill_parent"
