I just checked it on two systems: One has the smaller and one the
bigger window.

Digging in the code I found new versions of xv set a scaling factor
based on the DPI. (Bigger windows if DPI is higher than 144)

Tested on a Full HD Display (the one with bigger window):
xdpyinfo | grep resolution
  resolution:    158x158 dots per inch

If I start xv with the Parameter +hidpi, the window has the normal
size again.
