[vlc-devel] Meaning of video zoom

[Rémi Denis-Courmont]

No - what matters in that instance is the code above that deals with A/R. I think it uses smallest sample dimension if size is not forced.

I wouldn't take that code as the holy grail though. It applies the zoom to forced dimensions, which is IMO a bug.
