I did what I mentioned above.
Set in the SSA file the PlayResX & PlayResY variables to the  
dimensions of the video file.
So I was expecting the font to have the same size as the actual fonts.
Unfortunately still this is not the case.

Attached I  have a very small jpeg file which demonstrates this problem.
The left part has the actual size (as shown in my system) and the  
right is how it is displayed in MPlayer.
It seems that it is still scaled down.
The values I have used are
PlayResX: 656
PlayResY: 352
