The OSD has not been converted to MythUI, ergo mythUI theming tags are not
going to work in the OSD yet.  I don't actually know any pre-MythUI theming
so someone might be able to chime in if there's an equivalent, but I wanted
to explain why preserveaspect wasn't working for you.

(similar rules will apply to un-mythUI'd screens like parts of MythMusic,
MythZoneMinder, and a couple other places)
