> for preview, 512x256 & 256x512 should be expanded as 512x512 or 256x256?
For Pixel Aspect Ratio correction, the image dimensions should always be expanded and not shrunk.
This means that a 512x256 image with 1:2 PAR must be rendered as 512x512, and a 256x512 image with a 2:1 PAR must also be rendered as 512x512.
In pseudocode, the final image dimensions will become like this:
Code: Select all
IF PAR<1 ;THEN
final_widht = orig_width;
final_height = orig_height * (1/PAR);
ELSE
final_width = orig_width * PAR;
final_height = orig_height;
ENDIF;
