[Bug 521526] Re: gnome-mplayer does not correctly handle aspect ratio changes in mpeg streams

[Alistair Buxton]

I have been doing some more testing. The results described in the
original bug only apply when playing an asx playlist which links to a
http stream. This is how mythtv serves up the programs. If I download
the mpeg file instead and play it locally, aspect changes are completely
ignored. If I download the mpeg file and the asx and then modify the asx
to reference the local file, aspect changes are still ignored.

Example video files are at: http://al.robotfuzz.com/~al/aspect/

original.asx - the asx file served by mythtv
test.mpg - head -c 5000000 of the mpeg file downloaded from mythtv
test.asx - asx file modified to play test.mpg

I will attach logs next.
