    I’m finishing some spots for somebody and they have said they require SD spots to be in 520p resolution.
    I’m not familiar with 520p.
    Is 520p a standard SD resolution?

    The short answer is no, 520p is not a standard resolution.

    Then again, these days most video is for web, so really it could be any sized rectangle you can think of.

    Realistically, your client/dev meant 960×540. It is not technically a standard, but is 1/2 the vertical and horizontal resolution of 1080p, and is becoming increasingly common in web video.

    You should probably clarify with them.

    Where are you delivering these?

    Perhaps there’s some blanking involved?
