It won't work. The 16:9 wide screen plasmas do not have square pixels so
Freevo needs to scale the pictures horizontally to 75 percent of the
original value to preserve aspect ratio.
I tried to do that as it seemed easy to do but i found a lot of problems
when rotating the images and finally gave up.

I set the aspect ratio of the TV to 4:3 when watching photos but it will
be cool if Freevo will stretch the pictures if using a panoramic skin.
