+ at item force_original_aspect_ratio
+Enable decreasing or increasing output video width or height if necessary to
+keep the original aspect ratio. If set to 1, it will automatically decrease;
+if set to 2, it will increase if needed.
+
+One useful instance of this option is that when you know a specific device's
+maximum allowed resolution, you can use this to limit the output video to
+that, while retaining the aspect ratio. For example, device A allows
+1280x720 playback, and your video is 1920x800. Using this option (set it to
+1) and specifying 1280x720 to the command line makes the output 1280x533.
+
+Please note that this is a different thing than specifying -1 for @option{w}
+or @option{h}, you still need to specify the output resolution for this option
+to work.

 The values of the @var{w} and @var{h} options are expressions
