try -fixed-vo (fixed-vo=1 in config)
or maybe -screenw 1280 -screenh 1024

if i set my tv out to the stretched desktop, i get this problem...
i set my displays to clone to avoid it, i'm not sure how to fix it.

i think the problem is mplayer checks the display res before setting
the aspect, so it sees 2560x1024 and changes the aspect to match.
