I may be wrong, but I think that mplayer, at least, will be fine with a
1024x768 display resolution. It will deal with putting black bars at the top
and bottom and scaling the video appropriately to maintain its aspect
ratio. So, you should just stick with 1024x768 as the display res, and let
mplayer deal with the different aspect ratio. Have you tried this?
