vlc: unable to set resolution at command line



Hi everybody,

I'm on Debian Buster 10.4 vlc version: "VLC media player 3.0.10
Vetinari". I want to run vlc at command line setting the resolution of
720x576 but the vlc's window start at the resolution of the mp4 file.
Under Preference->Interfaces->Main Interfaces->Qt I've disabled: "Resize
interface to the native video size" without result
If you want to temporally  bypass your localization and see vlc's
interface in English start vlc this way:

~$ LC_ALL=C vlc

I googled a lot without luck and I tried many command line parameters
but none of them did the trick:

~$ vlc --width=720 --height=576 Junior\ Senior\ -\ Move\ Your\ Feet\
\(Official\ music\ video\,\ HD\)-SPlQpGeTbIE.mp4

~$ vlc --video-filter=transform --scene-width=720 --scene-height=576
Junior\ Senior\ -\ Move\ Your\ Feet\ \(Official\ music\ video\,\
HD\)-SPlQpGeTbIE.mp4

~$ vlc --preferred-resolution 720 Junior\ Senior\ -\ Move\ Your\ Feet\
\(Official\ music\ video\,\ HD\)-SPlQpGeTbIE.mp4

If you want to perform some test you can download from YouTube this file:

~$ youtube-dl https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPlQpGeTbIE

The file's resolution is at 450x360 I want that vlc plays it at 720x576
does anybody know how to perform this?

Thanks in advance for any answer, kind regards
