I'm not sure whether this belongs here or if I should take it to the
developers' list. I have been setting up a VIA EPIA MII with MythTv,
using a Hauppauge DVB-T tuner card (receiving UK Freeview DTT), and the

There are two concepts at work here:
1. normal Myth themes are based on 4:3 aspect ratio. As you've seen the
-wide themes are based on 16:9 aspect ratio
2. MythTV GUI (Qt toolkit, really) assumes square pixels. You could

But are your pixels square? 720x480 is pretty close to square pixels on
a 16:9 set.
I wouldn't think so, I'm using 720x576 too. I'll have a closer look tonight.

Hmmm, on my box, the MythTv menus were all dreadful looking until I
added a DisplaySize line to my xorg.conf. It was usable on a panel, but
