Aehm, didn't A'rpi say something about aspect in mpeg stream?
He said something like (AFAI remember):
In mpeg there is an aspect ration, but besides mpeg1/2 no player
will support it....
A'rpi:
Can you implement that? I don't care about other players, would be
cool if mplayer would support that.
Thanks.
