[mythtv] Mythgallery on 16:9 screens

[Julian Scheel]

Have you set a correct DisplaySize in XF86Config? - Maybe the value, which 
your monitor delivers isn't correct...
You could add some debugging-outputs in the calculation process on 
scale_aspect_w. scale_aspect_w is the multiplifier, which is used to stretch 
the image to the correct width.
