Themes are default 800x600 and any other resolution requires scaling, which I
haven't ever used. Also, with the latest driver 720x480 video displays with
black pillars (left and right). 640x480 might work better, but I capture
from my PVR-250 at 720x480, so I have used 800x600 (guess I could use
720x480, but I think you still have to scale to handle overscan and VBI
data). Bottom line: I've always used 800x600 and I've been very happy with
the quality of the output.
