[mythtv-users] 480i content displaying wrong

I keep my Playback's zoom settings set to 'Full'. This makes the
channels always crop so it looks better on my 4x3 TV.

This works for content that is 720 and higher. However, a couple
channels still broadcast in 480 and their 4x3 content gets cropped. I
have to manually change the zoom to 'Off' before I can see the full
4x3 content. On Myth 0.20, even though I had zoom set to "Full" those
particular 480i stations would look the same even if I manually
changed the zoom from 'Full' to 'Off'. I don't know if the upgrade to
0.21 changed this or if it was some xorg change.

My TV's resolution is set to 1024x768. It's a GeForce 6160.
The TVOutFormat is set to COMPONENT
The TVSTandard is set to HD480i in the xorg.conf
I'm using Mythbuntu 7.10 with backports of MythTV 0.21

Thanks for any help,
