An fxd does work with:
    <video>
      <file id="f00" mplayer-options="-aspect 16:9">clip-000.avi</file>
      <file id="f01" mplayer-options="-aspect 16:9">clip-001.avi</file>
    </video>

I'm not sure if it is possible to apply the mplayer-options attribute to
a whole directory.

What I think is a problem is when a movie has been encoded as a 16x9
mpeg but has the 4x3 aspect flag set. It seems that mplayer has the
correct proportions but the movie has black borders all round.

Not 100% sure about this.
