Thanks for all the info, I think I found the problem.
Can you try the latest SVN and tell me if it works?

The aspect ratio changes were not properly applied when the
resolution of the new video was the same as the resolution
of the previous video, but only when you were using an X11
video output type. This was due to an optimization in
VideoOutputXv::InputChanged() that avoids recreating the
buffers if the resolution hasn't changed. Unfortunately,
it also meant that MoveResize() wasn't being called when
the resolution didn't change. So while the new videoAspect
and XJ_aspect were set properly, the internal variables 
used to actually apply these changes were not updated.
