Since you're using chrome, this'll happen if you have the video playing fullscreen on the same monitor with the visible taskbar while having something else that's not chrome in focus on your other monitor. Nothing you can do about it unfortunately. You could set the taskbar to auto-hide, but that'll still leave a pixel or two left on the bottom of the screen(in win7, not sure about win10).
