I took a quick look and things are sort of working ok. Myth has 3 strange mode Letterbox_zoom(x2) and letterbox_16_9_stretch.
These tend to deliberately stretch the image bigger than can be displayed and then expect the display to chop the edges off. They set the x,y offset to be negative as well and expect us to display the middle of the image. I guess this is going to need more work somewhere.
