imo this has to be incorrect... movie aspect handling is much more
complicated than this and involves the whole filter chain and
disp_w/disp_h. a patch like this is almost certain to mess things up
with nontrivial filter chain (i.e. any filters that play with aspect).
but i'm not positive about that, so if you claim it works please test
it thoroughly and report back.

anyway manually overriding aspect is usually nonsense...
