[Ekiga-list] Fullscreen

My webcam works in full screen mode: Logitech QuickCam Communicate STX
(using gspca driver, although it should be noted that until the gspca
driver is patched, or until Ekiga supports more resolutions, this camera
will crop the image instead of scale it).

However, a separate issue I've noticed with fullscreen is that Ekiga
scales the video to match the dimensions of the screen. This is
problematic for widescreen displays because it stretches the picture,
distorting the image. My suggestion is that the scaling should happen to
the largest possible image size that maintains the same image ratio, and
should fill in the leftover with black space (this is how most video
programs nowadays handle widescreen displays).
