Configuring Camlink with XT100

Hi All,
Relatively new to digital photo/videography. I have purchased the Fujifilm XT100 for mainly clicking stills and the occasional video / podcast . I have also purchased a Camlink4k capture device to use the camera as a webcam and do live conferencing and streaming. I am faced with a few issues here and request those who have resolved these issues to help me.

1. The Camlink outputs a boxed video feed. I have set the video capture to 1080/30 fps on the device and on the OBS interface that pulls the signal from Camlink and set the same details over there as well, yet the video signal seem to carry the black boxed frame around it. I have seen some tutorials that suggest to switch to a video mode in other cameras, but I'm not able to find a dedicated video mode on the camera.

2. The auto focus sucks big time. Im trying to speak to the camera and while using a short focal length and open aperture, it is a pain to have the camera track my face and focus correctly. I know fuji does a bad job overall in this regard, but this is worse that i expected it to be. The focs seem to continuously shift from my face to the background.

3. Any options to get a clean HDMI? I have opted for it from the settings, but cant find a way to get rid off the green/white squares that the autofocus employs to track the focus on the live preview.

Thanks and regards!
