Picture-entity card removing name and timestamp from camera stream? Seems impossible

Ok, So this seems a little weird, as it doesn’t happen to any of my other cameras. However all of my cameras are 16:9 with the exception of my front door, which is 4:3. Though I am not changing the style of the card or clipping anything.

Below is the code, one is set to ‘live’ one is set to ‘auto’. The name and timestamp are embedded into the live feed, and not separate entities. So I’m not sure how this is possible? Does anyone have any clues why this would be happening?

      - type: conditional
        conditions:
          - entity: binary_sensor.front_doorbell_human_motion_detected
            state: 'off'
        card:
          show_state: false
          show_name: false
          camera_view: live
          type: picture-entity
          entity: camera.front_door_main
          
      - type: conditional
        conditions:
          - entity: binary_sensor.front_doorbell_human_motion_detected
            state: 'off'
        card:
          show_state: false
          show_name: false
          camera_view: auto
          type: picture-entity
          entity: camera.front_door_main

This happened to mine as well. Adding aspect_ratio: 75% to the picture entity YAML fixed it. Good luck!

aspect_ratio: 75%
camera_image: camera.camera_2
camera_view: live
entity: camera.camera_2
type: picture-entity
show_name: false
show_state: false
