I'm using the latest version of smplayer, with the keys "W" to zoom out (Zoom-) and "E" to zoom in (Zoom+).

Anything after r33488 exhibits the 'zoom' problem mentioned, and other than exchanging the mplayer versions I made no other setting changes.  Running with Win32-sp1.

This doesn't really make sense to me since according to the documentation directx never supported that feature.
Of course maybe the documentation was wrong.
Anyway I implemented the feature in latest SVN (r35155).
