Ok in those terms MPEG4 means ASP MPEG-4 video in an AVI container. Presumably you are talking about a SAP which would generally mean that the video already fits that criteria. Best guess would be that you have a DivX3 (MS MPEG-4 V3(not actually MPEG-4 despite the name)) AVI. There is a modified version of ffmpeg that can convert rather than re-encode to ISO MPEG-4. Changing the AR in MPEG4Modifier just changes a flag though. Upto the player to read it and resize. Also if you did need to re-encode you may as well resize whilst you are doing it, so no need for MPEG4Modifier.

M4? If it is an AVI file then the video stream will have a FourCC code. eg. DX50, DIV3, mp43, etc.

For resizing I would use AVISynth.
Something like:
avisource("orig.avi")
lanczos4resize(w,h)
encoder and then remux the original audio (assuming it doesn't need re-encoding).
