8775	Forced display aspect setting not honoured in TV recording playback	reidjr_at_lineone_dot_net	danielk	"

I have a 720x576 modeline on a PAL 16:9 TV. By default myth treats this as a 4:3 display. To overcome this I use the ""Seperate modes for gui and video"" options, and set :
 Gui 720x576 video 720x576 auto 16:9

and an Override mode for US content of:
 Gui 720x480 video 720x480 auto 16:9

with these setting the display is treated as 16:9 for PAL LiveTV playback, or PAL/NTSC MythVideo content.  Playing any Recorded TV ( I only have PAL to test) treats the display as 4:3.

If in ""Screen Settings"" I '''also''' Set the GUI size to 720x576, and check ""Use Gui Size for TV playback"", the 16:9 aspect ratio is honored in recorded TV.
