New screen ratio for 16:9 screens - Zoom to 14:9 (2 Viewers)

[Grunt]

Thank you for implementing this so quick rtv. I'm glad I could have a very small contribution to this wonderfull open source project.
Thre was a small bug in my patch file, two of the strings were reversed between zoom and zoom149, I corrected it long ago, but forgot to upload the updated patch. I see that u have corrected this and I'm sorry if I caused any trouble.

This is just the scenario where "zoom" comes into place - stretching horizontally to fit the screen and then increase the height accordingly..

Yes, that should be an option, but it crops too much of the image and subtitles won't fit on the screen any more on most of the channels.

First of all thanks for implementing that feature so fast, I really appreciate and enjoy it!

This new screen ratio can also be used to enlarge the 2.35:1 movies on a 16:9 screen, so the black bars at top and bottom will be half-size.

I would love to see a zoom mode / ratio where the black bars from 2.35:1 movies on top and bottom totally disappear on my 16:9 screen. So the full height of the screen is used and the picture is cropped on both sides (the original AR is kept). Is it possible to implement that zoom or can I do that myself without any programming knowledge? That would be great, thanks in advance for any answers and tips 8)
