  Resizing Video… What Size?

  Posted by Chris Wright on January 8, 2009 at 7:35 pm

  My final video is 720 x 480. But I read somewhere that if I resize the video to half it’s original size (for example, in Flash Video Encoder), that it should be resized to 320 x 240. That seems off to me since 720/2=360. So I thought the resized video would be 360 x 240.

  Also, if I want to resize the video to somewhere between it’s original size and 1/2 size, what would the appropriate dimensions be? 480 x 360? 540 x 360?

  And this will explain with 320×240 is half of 720×480:
