The default output size is the video size that appears in the DirectShow pin properties dialog as the
default choice. It is a pathway for setting a custom or nonstandard video size in applications that do
not have custom video sizing controls built into them.

Pin Select

You can have different setups for the two pins. For example, you could enable cropping on the
capture pin but not on the preview pin.

Reference Size
The reference size information is always read-only on this dialog tab. It is determined by settings
made on other tabs – specifically, the Input tab, where a 525-line or 625-line standard is selected,
and the RefSize tab, where Square Pixel or CCIR proportioning is selected. The read-only text box
describes which of these options is currently governing the reference size.
The reference width and height represent the full uncropped size of the incoming video. Your crop
settings are interpreted relative to this reference size. For example, if you are capturing 525-line
video, with a reference size of 640 x 480, and your crop rectangle is (0, 0, 640, 480), and then your
video is effectively uncropped. But if you are capturing 625-line video, with a reference size of 768 x
576, the same (0, 0, 640, 480) crop specification truncate the right and bottom edges of the video.
