not windowing correctly

Hello,

When opening a multicast stream or a local .mp4 in a window smaller than the native video stream using the following command line:
vlc.exe udp://@233.3.3.1:3333 --volume=0 --qt-start-minimized --no-video-deco --no-embedded-video --no-video-title-show --width="640" --height="360" --video-x="1" --video-y="1"

Using VLC version 2.0.8, the video appears in the upper-left third of the display as expected.
Using VLC version 2.1.5, the video opens in full screen.

Using 2.1.5, If I add the --no-autoscale option the video opens in the correct size window in the correct position but the image appears zoomed in (and then cropped) such that only about the center 50% if the video is visible.

Is this a bug in 2.1.5 or a change in how the parameters work in this version?

There's a bug report created. Bug says <paraphrased> that the video-x & video-y command line parameters do not work.
