In an effort to create something to solve such issues with xineliboutput plugin I came up with an idea of this HUD type OSD. Basically it means that OSD is rendered to a separate transparent surface on top of video and then these are blended together by the display hardware. This way the size of the OSD is bound to the size of the used window rather than the size of the video stream. In other words no OSD scaling will be necessary even though the video size changes. The HUD implementation has been integrated into the CVS of xineliboutput plugin. To operate it requires support for xorg render extension and presence of composite display manager such as xcompmgr. It also requires powerful display adapter and drivers with support for these modern extensions. Maybe you can try it to see if it produces results that you are hoping for?
