  Hi!

I have an issue or maybe two and I wonder if it's implemented or not and 
if it is a know problem.

First the WSS signal. I wonder if the internal player is sensitive to 
the WSS(widescreen) signal? We have a analogue cable the is sending this 
signal and my TV is acting on it but I can't see myth doing anything 
about it.
I ran: v4l2-ctl --set-fmt-sliced-vbi=teletext,wss 
--set-ctrl=stream_vbi_format=1
And I can watch Teletext pages.
When I use the --get-fmt-sliced-vbi it says that is can see both 
teletext and wss.

The second problem I see is when I try to change the aspect ratio from 
4:3 to 16:9(default it Off) i notice that is changing the size of the 
picture but only the width. The height stays the same.

Is there a problem with this or am I doing anything wrong?

I'm running Mythbuntu 0.23.0+fixes25368.
