I tried to play the clip with Xv, X11 and SDL output drivers.
The problem only happens with Xv.

The size of the movie is 382x224. If I play it with
"-vop scale=384", the display is OK.

If I play a normal 352x240 movie with "-vop scale=350" I get the same
slanted image. So I guess the problem is that Xv cannot properly
display movies that have a width that's not divisable by 4.

I don't know if this is a mplayer bug or X bug (btw, I use a Matrox
G450 with XFree86 4.1.0)
