Thanks for clarifying this.

I'll add a small patch to the series to crop at the resizer sink pad.
In this way the aspect ratio should be maintained before downscaling

By default, the pipeline handler when asked for 1080p selects a
smaller sensor size than the full resolution, but to validate your
question I hacked it to always use full res and the result I have is:

rkisp1_path.cpp:331 Configured main resizer input pad with 4208x3120-YUYV8_2X8 crop (0, 0)/4208x2368
rkisp1_path.cpp:337 Configuring main resizer output pad with 1920x1080-YUYV8_2X8

Without the hack, a size of 2104x1560 is selected from the sensor,
which gets cropped to 2104x1184 before getting downscaled to 1920x1080

rkisp1_path.cpp:331 Configured main resizer input pad with 2104x1560-YUYV8_2X8 crop (0, 0)/2104x1184
rkisp1_path.cpp:337 Configuring main resizer output pad with 1920x1080-YUYV8_2X8

Would it work if I add that patch to the series before this one ?
