In my gallery, movies have no border, so they look a lot like pictures. Is there some way to add "film holes" to the left and right sides of a movie?

Okay, works pretty well... I noticed that existing album highlights aren't updated. (Dunno if new highlights will be yet.)

BTW, wouldn't it be better to handle this in the theme, kind of how the borders on albums are done now? I could imagine all kinds of decorations for different file types in the future.

Oops. Highlights do work. I just needed to do a hard reload in my browser.

theme designers can of course do anything they like based on item.. i just happened to implement this feature for ffmpeg module, to give some theme independent option.
