Comment (by dargllun@…):

 Hi Mark,

 I'm indeed on AMD HD3200 HW, using the fairly recent r600g driver and a
 KMS kernel. In Appearance->Screen Settings(2) I have:
 GUI: 1280x720, Video: 1920x1080,any,standard

 I tested wit xv-blit and opengl output, same issue.

 The resolution is correctly switched to 1080p when watching a video, and
 back to 720p when returning to the GUI. Its just that the display area is
 smaller, and still using the 720p dimensions.

 There is one kind of funny thing: both with xv and opengl, the OSD menu
 appears to have some notion of that the picture is supposed to be wider.
 The horizontal dimension appears to be correct, and the right side is cut
 @ 1280. Vertically it's also higher than it would need to be for 720p.

 So again: everything ok except the displayed video area.

 Personally I very much doubt a driver bug, as the r600g is quite mature
 with such basic things, and in fact might even be superior to fglrx WRT to
 the xrandr implementation. Unfortunately I can't easily test fglrx right
 now, WAF would take a bad hit...

 Let me know if you need more input.
