This looks like a REALLY nice patch!  Thanks.

The modes are basically:

- 16:9, 4:3 exactly as expected. Basically forces the video to use this 
aspect
- 4:3 stretch.  Given a 4:3 stream and that you have a 16:9 output 
device it stretches the video to fit the width, chopping a little off 
the top
- 16:9 stretch.  Given a 16:9 stream and that you have a 4:3 output 
device it stretches the height, chopping a little off the width

(Perhaps this is worth adding into the Myth docs..?)

Good luck.  Would love to see this getting properly fixed and included.
