My mistake.  Broadcast and DVD pixels are non-square, HDTV is.  However, 
you still need the 16:9 conversion, as povray assumes a 4:3 aspect 
ratio.  As such a povray image rendered without the "right (19/9)" will 
be warped, as the image will get rendered as 4:3, and then stretched 
horizontally to 16:9.
