It has worked already in Gotham with VAAPI without any issue and now it looks like that is broken completely (see Fritsch's - Posting - at the moment removing black bars does not work with VAAPI but is also broken on Software when Yadif is enabled).
Im wondering only why you are going to drop an so good function. Does Intel has droped the support for Openelec, is this the reason?

Probably I move this setting to advanced setting before entirely drop it in some future version.
The facts:
- this feature does not work reliable
- it was not implemented correctly
- it has never worked with vaapi in official repo
- it requires desktop power and only a very small number of entire xbmc/kodi users have such systems in use
- and a even smaller number own outdated plasmas which may require this feature
I am not going to spend time on something only 0.0x user may use. Further I seriously doubt that black bars burn-in is still an issue and if so this feature should be implemented in the tv sets that suffer from the issue.
