Comment:

 Confirm the problem:
 {{{
 ffplay -vf ass=/home/stefano/s/Rocket_04.ass -f lavfi testsrc=s=720x480
 }}}

 The problem depends on the fact that vf_ass.c uses the same DAR of input
 for rendering the subtitles, which is indeed a rather arbitrary behavior
 (see line in vf_ass.c: ass_set_aspect_ratio(ass->renderer, dar, sar)).

 Possible fixes:
 set the DAR to 1.0, or allow the user to specify the DAR through an
 option.

 In the second case I ask: does it make sense to be able to set such value,
 or should be rather set in the ass file itself (assuming it is possible)?
