When using ffdshow filter (tryout rev 3439 and older) for playing h264 with a non-mod16 width, there is always an annoying checkered left border:

VLC does not have any problems with non-mod16 videos. Is this a bug in ffdshow?
x264 is capable of encoding non-mod16 and does fill in some dummy pixels to reach 16. As I understand, the padding is not saved to file but only used while encoding. So the player has to recognize the non-mod16 width and fill it or (better) cut it away.
