I really like this idea.  Watching high-def shows in
1080i, I noticed that the mythfrontend sometimes
reports 1088 vertical resolution instead of 1080. I
think this causes Xv to scale the result, which lowers
the quality.  Note, this the VERTICAL dimension rather
than the horizontal which your patch addresses. 
Perhaps this idea has more general applibility?
