-    - Add a ''Resize''-filter to define the output size. If the video is to be displayed with a video projector, it is advised to adjust the size according to the projector resolution (typically no more than 1280*1024). Some codecs work better if the size is a multiple of 4 or 16, for example; this can be done automatically with the ''Codec-friendly sizing'' option. {{ :devel:virtualdub:virtualdub03b.png |}}

To modify the animation you can use the different __filters__ provided by VirtualDub. Those needed in this context are:
  
-  * **Resize**: to change the dimensions of the animation (by predefined patterns or in a customized fashion). __NB__: some codecs require dimensions that are multiple of some quantity (2, 4, 16, etc...).

 __Remark 3__: The Resize filter can also be used to obtain animations of the right size to be uploaded on [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4G1VzsYVgcOGWiUVIEnmJg|YouTube]] (avoiding in this way the automatic addition of black edges in order to compensate the difference between the dimensions of the uploaded video and those imposed by YouTube). __Remark 3__: The Resize filter can also be used to obtain animations of the right size to be uploaded on [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4G1VzsYVgcOGWiUVIEnmJg|YouTube]] (avoiding in this way the automatic addition of black edges in order to compensate the difference between the dimensions of the uploaded video and those imposed by YouTube).
