I'm trying to get a WintvGO card running on Fedora Core
4 with tvtime-0.9.15-7 and i have some problems with
picture ratio. When running with one display tvtime
works fine but when i enable xinerama dualhead and try
to fit the picture to one of the displays, a huge black
bars appear on top and bottom of the picture and tv
picture is only about 2/5 of the full window size. I
don't think it's a problem with my tvcard or X settings
because i get no similiar problems with another tv
viewing application called zapping.

    It's because the resolution reported by X is something
    really crazy. If you run 'X -dpi 96' then things will work
    fine.

    I'm going to fix this by just having tvtime assume square
    pixels from now on, and put in a 1280x1024 mode if people
    really need it.
