 This patch scans each frame for black bars on the top and bottom. If black
 bars are detected it switches to Full or Half fill mode (to the one that
 is most apropriate). It also switch off the fill mode if the letterbox
 dissapears.

 This is usefull if you have a 16:9 display and view content that is
 letterboxed.

 To enable this feature by default go to
 Setup->TV Settings->Playback->Next->Zoom
 and select "Auto Detect (Default Off)"

 Or to just try it out you can enable it from the "Adjust Fill" menu.
