Step 1: Download/Get a 1080p video.

Step 2: ./tutorial03a video-1080p.mp4

pCodecCtx->width  5: 1920
pCodecCtx->height 5: 1088
sample_aspect_ratio: 1.0000000000
aspect_ratio: 1.7647058964
mode.w: 1366
mode.h: 768
dst_w: 1366
dst_h: 774

See the video height get is 1088 instead 1080, therefore, the calculated aspect_ratio is wrong, therefore, the display height (dst_h) is wrong.

Step 3: Test the video-1080p.mp4 using another tool at your disposal what's it video width and the height.

The issue is, after the avcodec_open() for the video, the original value of AVCodecContext->height get changed.

Isn't there such a issue at your side? I use ffmpeg 0.7.5.
