Anyone know how to make this work right?

Ah, I had seen that and it threw me off a bit since I'm not using
Xinerama (using twinview). But setting it to "All" fixed it. I should
have learned by now with MythTV to "just try it"!<br>

The aspect ratio of a Xinerama display can not be queried from the

Apparently the ratio of one of the two twinview screen can be queried
because the aspect ratio setting is ignored (with Xinerama set to
"All") and it handles it fine no matter which screen I start
mythfrontend on. Thanks!<br>
