Yeah, that's that strange bit.  It's not on, and I have toggled it both 
ways just for kicks.  The main mythfrontend screen is running correctly, 
it's just the video window which pops into it's own framed window (and 
not full screen)

Curiously after I upgraded from my fairly old version what would happen 
is that playing the video would trigger the video window to pop into a 
framed window.  Then the frontend would be in a framed window from then 
on.  I toggled the "frontend in a window" option, and I think I 
deselected the option underneath about using same resolution for video 
playback and now it's just the playback screen.  The frontend stays full 
screen

Can you point me to where the relevant code is, and perhaps a primer on 
anything to look for to debug it?  I have a 720x576 screen running on a 
16:9 box so the aspect ratio is non-square pixels.  Possibly this is 
tickling some test to go a bit wierd?


Thanks
