I thought of that and had the original rules as
>=1920x1080
<=1920x1088

which still didn't catch it for MythVideo.

In my mind though, most people *won't* know that, and 1920x1088 should
be seen as 1920x1080 for how the rules apply to avoid confusion.  I'll
play with it some more when I have time.
