This is particularly important with 16:9 NTSC where it is rather difficult to deduce the display aspect ratio simply from the frame size. Also useful for differentiating beween 1920x1080 and 1440x1080 since the main header on indicates line-height.

Is this just a comment, or do I need to change it to apply directly to current trunk? That patches are currently set to be applied in-sequence.

Prefer your simplification for calculating st->codec->height.

Agreed.

Agreed. Will rework this. There are some cases anamorphic cases with DVCPROHD and AVCI where the encoded width is reduced by 3/4.  So you get things like 960x720 for 720p, 1280x1080 for 1080/59.94i and 1440x1080 for 1080/50i. Should I assume that the user will be smart enough to append the desired aspect ratio to the command line in those cases?
