Unfortunately, the -noautoscale option does not work either, I've 
already tried that before.

It is, however, not surprising that it has no effect because 
-noautoscale is an output option. And in my scenario, the output 
resolution does not change over time.

As for the patch linked in that thread, I have yet to try it. Not sure 
if it's already been merged into master; if not, it means I have to 
compile a build myself, and setting everything up for that is likely 
going to take a while...

No problem. What I still cannot understand is whether this is some kind 
of fundamental limitation or an outright bug. For some reason, I could 
find very little information about this particular scenario. Whenever I 
search for that error message ("impossible to convert between..."), it 
always seems to concern a completely different use case.
