Kristof,

I really don't know what's involved in XV vs DirectFB, but I'd be very
interested if you can do the same for XV.

Australian DVB stations love transmitting:
1) 4:3 inside 16:9
and
2) 16:9 inside 4:3 inside 16:9 (if you know what I mean...) 

Although the second case is generally advertisements more than anything.
Sometimes the odd show does have it though.

Should the patch come close to working with XV or is there an element
missing that would be required for XV support?
