Video res. higher than GUI -> video not scaled

Description
When I select different resolutions for the GUI (720p) and Video (1080p), the video output mode is properly changed during playback, but the video itself is not upscaled. I will attach a screenshot and the fe log with -v playback. Having such a setup is desirable (for me) to be able to use the webbrowser in 720p mode (higher usability of window controls). Also, the UI themes work faster on my machine with that lower resolution.

How well are my chances that a potential fix will be backported to 0.24-fixes?

I can't reproduce this with any of my machines here. My gut feeling is that this is a driver bug although there is every possibility I'm missing something.
Can you confirm what your video hardware and driver versions are (I'm assuming ATI) and outline what settings you have enabled in Settings->Appearance->Theme/Screen? Settings.
Additionally, you may want to try alternative/latest versions of your driver to see if there is any improvement.

Hi Mark,
I'm indeed on AMD HD3200 HW, using the fairly recent r600g driver and a KMS kernel. In Appearance->Screen Settings(2) I have: GUI: 1280x720, Video: 1920x1080,any,standard
I tested wit xv-blit and opengl output, same issue.
The resolution is correctly switched to 1080p when watching a video, and back to 720p when returning to the GUI. Its just that the display area is smaller, and still using the 720p dimensions.
There is one kind of funny thing: both with xv and opengl, the OSD menu appears to have some notion of that the picture is supposed to be wider. The horizontal dimension appears to be correct, and the right side is cut @ 1280. Vertically it's also higher than it would need to be for 720p.
So again: everything ok except the displayed video area.
Personally I very much doubt a driver bug, as the r600g is quite mature with such basic things, and in fact might even be superior to fglrx WRT to the xrandr implementation. Unfortunately I can't easily test fglrx right now, WAF would take a bad hit...
Let me know if you need more input.

Fixes #9233. Refs #7408. Re-enables WindowResized?().
We traded a one small bug for two others just prior to 0.24.
