[MPlayer-users] vop scale query

[Chris Phillips]

seeing as i actually did just read the manpage, the vop scale option says 
it defaults to destination aspect if and only if the -zoom option is used. 
How does this relate to the way i've been doing it, i.e. with scale=-1:-2 
and not the -zoom option? Are these two methods equivalent? they have the 
same result as far as i can see... any preference?
