I was having this issue as well last night. I knew what the problem was (btw, how come the 'expand' option is not documented in xine's manual page?) but was unable to locate the command line. I was searching in /usr/lib/python-2.4/site-packages/freevo instead of in /usr/share/freevo > Sorry, I have a 4:3 tv and so I never saw the problem.

The problem here is that xine will expand it no matter what the res of the TV is.
