It's mostly a copy&paste of the classic skin atm, so could maybe just
subclass this skin. I think it could be implemented as a mod for vdr's
osd itself so that it does the dithering as a step after rendering just
before being displayed. The font rendering also needs to be changed,
because I draw an outline to avoid rugged edges around fonts drawn on
top of the dithering.
