Problem confirmed. To replicate:

1. Download this sample 16:9 public domain video from archive.org: https://archive.org/details/CEP427 (or any other 16:9 file)
2. Upload the 16:9 video into your file area in Mahara
3. Put the video into an "Embedded media" block in Mahara

Expected result: The video displays at its native 16:9 resolution
Actual result: The video is distored to a different resolution

Title:
  Problem with scaling in flowplayer

Bug description:
  When I create a page with "embedded media" (edit page > media >
  embedded media) and chose a video file, it is displayed in flowplayer
  with the scaling parameter set to "scale".  This "deforms" the
  original video by changing the aspect ratio (for example, a 16:9 video
  is "scaled" to fit the box of a 500x300 embedded media (not 16:9).

  I corrected this locally by putting "scaling: 'orig'" in
  "artefact/file/blocktype/internalmedia/lib.php" in the flowplayer
  specifications.

  Keep up the good job!  :)
