This has been happening all over the place, ever since -vfm ffmpeg was
give the feature of being able to switch resolution on the fly...  

Consider yourself lucky...  there were plans to remove libmpeg2 a while
ago...  I wonder how things would have turned out if I had been busier
that week and not reading the list...

You can use ff* by forcing the proper ratio with -vf dsize, or you can
stick with libmpeg2 until someone comes along and writes an option to
disable this...
