720x486 is a very odd size. In particular 486 would need rounding up the
next full macroblock size hence the additional 10 lines stored.

Its the same for HD 1920x1080, if you look at the stored size its 1088.
This usually gets done automatically by the coder for AVCI. As these
padding lines are at the end and not the top the offset of 0 is correct.

So I don't think this is wrong at all.
