Christian Ebert <[email protected]> added the comment: Errmh, but a movie is for displaying, isn't it ;-) With mplayer I can force -aspect 16/9, but my final goal is encoding to h264 for the web where I can't force the aspect.
Without aspect mplayer gives: MPlayer SVN-r32643-4.0.1 (C) 2000-2010 MPlayer Team Playing test.mp4. libavformat file format detected.
