I have my "DisplaySize" set correctly in my XF86Config so X knows my TV is 
has a 16:9 aspect ratio.  Unfortunately Myth seems to assume that 
everything recorded off my BTTV card is in 4:3 format, so I have to 
manually press the toggle aspect button to make it the right ratio.  Is 
there any way I can tell Myth that the BTTV card is recording anamorphic 
16:9 broadcasts so it'll automatically display the picture in the full 
16:9 width?

(up until now I've set the DisplaySize to a 4:3 aspect ratio so it works, 
but this means that things which actually know about the source video's 
aspect, such as Xine, get it wrong instead).
