[mythtv-users] Playing 16:9 recordings on a 4:3 monitor

[R KANNAN]

Hello,

When I play my 16:9 recordings (or Live TV)  on my 4:3 monitor, the image
is stretched vertically to fill the screen I have tried playing around with
Zeoom settings under Setup->Video->Playback, 'w' settings when the video is
being played or 'Video->Aspect Ratio" in the dynmaic menu from pressing "m"
when the video is being played. Nothing seems to help.

xrandr retuns

xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 0: minimum 640 x 480, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 1280 x 1024
default connected 1280x1024+0+0 0mm x 0mm
   1280x1024       0.0*
   1024x768        0.0
   800x600         0.0
   640x480         0.0

How can this be corrected?

I am using MythTV  0.25.3 + fixes2012  on Mythbuntu12.04.

Thanks
