i use mplayer as movie decoder ( the best ever ), slave mode, gtk 
frontend, give mplayer wid of area to use, control the size and ratio by 
myself.

for some dvd - in fact all i tried - there an aspect ratio ( 1.78:1 ) to 
  apply on video size. for the fist run ( fist launch of mplayer with 
this wid ), mplayer print the line :

	.......
	VDec: vo config request - 720 x 576 (preferred csp: Planar YV12)
	Movie-Aspect is 1.78:1 - prescaling to correct movie aspect.
	VO: [xv] 720x576 => 1024x576 Planar YV12
	.......

  --> fine. can get video size, scale to correct ratio, but after, 
mplayer just send :

	.......
	VDec: vo config request - 720 x 576 (preferred csp: Planar YV12)
	VO: [xv] 720x576 => 720x576 Planar YV12
	.......

--> where is this line gone ??? guess it's something about the window ( 
-wid ), but what ??? any clues ???

by the way, mplayer shouldn't print the "real" size, 1024x576 instead of 
720x576 ?????

( i could start an "mplayer -frames 0 -vo null ..." instead of "grabing" 
info, what's not really good )
