    By Default the video view resizes
    itself to fit the encoded resolution
    of the Video.

    VideoView (or the SurfaceView for use with MediaPlayer) will be the size you tell it to be in your layout. Within that space, the video will play back as large as possible while maintaining the aspect ratio.

    Can I force Android to render a video
    into a smaller or larger rect?

    Yes: make your VideoView be the size you want, and Android will scale to fit the size of the VideoView.
