Max out YouTube 4K width at 3840 while maintaining aspect ratio #21

Closed despoa closed 1 year ago

despoa commented 1 year ago

YouTube has a maximum width of 3840 for its 4K encodes. Any video wider than that will be resized down by YouTube for its 4K encodes so that the final width is 3840. This change will ensure that video the AVS script outputs will adhere to YouTube's 4K resolution limits: the width cannot be greater than 3840 and the height cannot be greater than 2160.

Which consoles are affected?

despoa commented 1 year ago

Mostly Flash games. Some Linux and Windows games may also have aspect ratios wider than 16:9.

vadosnaprimer commented 1 year ago

So for them, height gets reduced below 2160 and it still appears as 4K on youtube?

despoa commented 1 year ago

Yes. Here's an example. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvMOHvQiG3M

Looks legit.

DS YouTube encodes are also usually wider than 16:9.
