Comment 3 for bug 521526

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.
