# encoding profile file #
#########################
#
# Note: by default, this file is installed to /etc/mpv/encoding-profiles.conf
# (or a different location, depending on --prefix). mpv will load it by
# default on program start. If ~/.mpv/encoding-profiles.conf exists, this file
# will be loaded instead.
#
# Then, list all profiles by
#   mpv -profile help | grep enc-
#
# The following kinds of encoding profiles exist:
#   enc-a-*:  initialize an audio codec including good defaults
#   enc-v-*:  initialize a video codec including good defaults
#   enc-f-*:  initialize a file format including good defaults, including
#             selecting and initializing a good audio and video codec
#   enc-to-*: load known good settings for a target device; this typically
#             includes selecting an enc-f-* profile, then adjusting some
#             settings like frame rate, resolution and codec parameters
#
# AFTER including a profile of these, you can of course still change
# options, or even switch to another codec.
#
# You can view the exact options a profile sets by
#   mpv -show-profile enc-to-bb-9000
#
# Examples:
#   mpv -profile enc-to-dvdpal -o outfile.mpg infile.mkv
#   mpv -profile enc-f-avi -ofps 30 -o outfile.avi infile.mkv
#   mpv -profile enc-v-mpeg4 -ovcopts-add qscale=7 -profile enc-a-mp3 -oacopts-add b=320k -o outfile.avi infile.mkv

# 2a: in_w, in_h*SAR/sar - fit to original width
# 2b: in_w*sar/SAR, in_h - fit to original height
# 2: the max of 2a and 2b (i.e. avoid enlarging both dimensions - let HW scaling handle this)
# output: the min of 1 and 2 (i.e. fulfill both constraints)

# setsar=sar=1 to prevent nasty almost-1 SAR to be passed to the codec due to the rounding which can fail
#
# If the device supports file SAR properly, we can make use of it to avoid
