No

jun 12 23:43:27 <kandinski> ok, just wanted you to know
I love the way it keeps the 3:4 aspect ratio when
resizing, but...
jun 12 23:44:09 <kandinski> ...when using a mask for
another aspect ratio, maybe it would be better if the
window assumed that aspect ratio instead of blacking
out the non-picture sections
jun 12 23:45:22 <kandinski> Does not on KDE/Debian SID
jun 12 23:46:20 <vektor> I developed that feature under
KDE 3.1.2/3.1.4 on Debian unstable.
jun 12 23:46:27 <vektor> It worked there because KDE
3.1 did not support the aspect ratio hint.
jun 12 23:46:46 <vektor> Now that I'm using KDE 3.2.2
on Debian unstable, it also does not work for me.
jun 12 23:47:55 <vektor> We don't force the window to
be 4:3, your window manager does.
jun 12 23:48:00 <vektor> But only if it supports this
feature.
jun 12 23:48:04 <vektor> KDE 3.1 does not.
jun 12 23:48:08 <vektor> KDE 3.2 does.
jun 12 23:48:18 <vektor> So when I wrote the mask code,
I could not have known it would break for WMs that
support aspect hints.
jun 12 23:48:39 <vektor> Now that I have such a WM, I
can reproduce the bug.
jun 12 23:48:45 <vektor> So I will have to fix it in
tvtime.

    I can reproduce this and we should fix it.
