Like an adult diaper, it depends. If I'm reading it right, you're going to
be greatly stretching out the Y-axis. Is that what you are wanting to do?
That would really distort the image.

I was wondering the same, but now on second thought might he be trying to give the picture black borders, and/or to render subtitles under the picture... It would help to know what the purpose here is.

In general do I suggest to refrain from any kind of up-scaling unless it's meant to be overlayed with another source (i.e. Picture-in-Picture, hard-coded subtitles, ...). If the goal is to increase the resolution then it is best to leave it to the video player. Upscaling an image doesn't increase the amount of original information contained within, but inflates it. Different upscaling algorithms then leave different signatures of which not all are pleasing to everyone. Upscaling also increase the amount of processing required by the encoder and decoder. Unless there is a good reason for it should one leave upscaling/zooming to the players and displays.
