Yeah, that was me.

Previously, the code was useless on 16:9 sets, which is why I changed  
it.  Currently the three modes are:
* 4:3: fullscreen on 4:3 set, pillarboxed (shrink in X) on 16:9 set
* 16:9: letterboxed (shrink in Y) on 4:3 set, fullscreen on 16:9 set
* Zoom: Zoom (grow both X and Y) by 4/3

The first two change the aspect ratio, the third maintains it while  
scaling.  This third one should be what you want.  At least that's the  
intent.  Is this not what you're seeing?  What's the aspect ratio of  
your TV, the entire video, and the active portion of the video; and the  
pixel dimensions for all three?

Note that the other change is that playback now pays attention to your  
set's aspect ratio as defined by its dimensions in your XF86Config  
file, so if those are set incorrectly it could confuse the issue.
