HYPNO: Screen mode should change when cutscenes are playing

Description
When cutscenes are playing in Spider-Man: The Sinister Six, the screen mode doesn’t change to match the video, a which can result in it scaling the video using generic routines, which is much slower than letting the backend handle it and ignores the aspect ratio correction option.

I'd assume that if the video fills the entire screen it should change the screen mode, while if it's positioned on screen or has other graphics layered on top, it should remain in 640x480.
It's worth mentioning that this is how the original executable behaves as well.

Hey, I was thinking in fixing this, but tbh, I'm unsure how to test it. There are many videos played in the hypno engine, with different options, which are triggered in different situations. I'm afraid that if a bug is introduced, we will have a hard time catching it. Any suggestions?
