I think this is your problem.  MythTV computes the screen aspect ratio
from the display size (524x321 mm).  In your case this is somewhere
between 16:9 (which would be ~524x295 mm) and 16:10 (which would be
~524x328 mm)  It is probably snapping the display's aspect ratio to 16:9
instead of 16:10.  Inserting a "DisplaySize" directive in your xorg.conf
in the appropriate location (Google is your friend) should fix it up.
