just have a look at the mail from Reinhard Walter Buchner
"[vdr] Release will be in a few days"

he says:

"- Increased number of screen formats available
  additonally now: Center Cut Out, PanScan, Letterbox

These will ONLY work if the stream supports it
(just like the 4:3 and 16:9 switches) A lot of PW
films support these new modes.
Of course the NEW screen formats also work with
the DVD plugin"
