Hi!

Currently, "--maximize" or "M" while playing maximizes the movie in the way 
that the full movie fits on the screen. However, sometimes a badly encoded 
file will have black bars on top and bottom, and maximize will result in a 
black border. Especially on wide screens this would happen often.

Having horizontal (movie width = screen width, keep aspect ratio) and 
vertical (movie height = screen height, keep aspect ratio) allignment would 
solve that problem.
Vertical alignment also comes handy when you want real fullscreen (no black 
borders on top and bottom). This is nice on small screens. (It's pretty much 
the same what is done on TV sometime, just chop off right and left parts of 
the movie and use the full screen)

I've written a small perl script that does that (uses the -size command line 
option), but I think it really should be natively supported in the official 
avifile package. The "V" and "H" keys are not used now, it would be nice to 
use them for this feature.

Thank you,

Roland
