The problem is not resolved. While gst-launch gets the aspect ratio
correct all the time, totem doesn't. When set to "automatic", it
distorts most but not all films from 4:3 to something super-wide like
8:3 (estimated, but wider than 16:9).
Manual setting of the aspect ratio to 4:3 sometimes helps
I tried gst-launch, and it worked fine. After that, now Totem also seems
to work fine. However, some video thumbnails still get distorted when
being produced, namely they are much wider than high.

[Gutsy] Totem gets aspect ratio wrong on rotated screens

I am using the Nvidia driver on a GeForce FX 5200.
At the moment I cannot rotate the screen at all, neither with xrandr nor
with Grandr, although xorg.conf has not changed. So I cannot test the
effect of gst-launch-0.10 on the rotated screen.

[Gutsy] Totem gets aspect ratio wrong on rotated s
Thank you for your bug. Does it happen if you play the video using "gst-
launch-0.10 playbin uri=file:///path/to/video"? What videocard and
driver do you use?
