Bug #: 29181
Summary: "480P" transcode of 16:9 video actually sized to
640x360 in TimedMediaHandler
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: TimedMediaHandler
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Blocks: 27699
Classification: Unclassified
Uploading a copy of the 'Shuttle flip.webm' from the prototype page to my local
test wiki with transcoding working, I end up with two playable file versions:
"WebM source" at the original 1080x608
"WebM 480P" -- which is actually sized at 640x360
Since HD video formats are defined by their height, not their width, it might
be better to go ahead and size "480P" to 480 pixels high and "720P" to 720
pixels high etc, rather than "480P" to 640 pixels *wide* and 720P to 1280
pixels wide.
A 480P transcode of a 16:9 file should probably either be 854x480 (square
pixels), or else use 720x480 and tweak the aspect ratio.
Note that a 360 pixels-high file would not be terribly in plenty of
circumstances, but should be labeled as 360P.
