 In the Watch Recordings screen the Preview image and live video don't
 always scale well.  This generally happens if the aspect ratio or the size
 of the image doesn't match the aspect / size of the theme's preview area.
 In this case I see a bunch of leftover images as I scroll through the
 available recordings.

 The attached patch fixes this by doing the following:[[BR]]
 * Expand the image to fill the video area (while preserving the aspect
 ratio)[[BR]]
 * Letterbox or Pillarbox the resulting image to remove the leftover images
 mentioned above.

 This works on both the live video and the still preview image.
