Hi. The 4:3 ratio, unless I completely do not understand any of this, is not pertinent to a desktop app. It was for viewing film and TV back in the day when there was much less flexibility in display screen technology. Much less. The monitors I see around me are all anything but 4:3. I have one rotated 90 degrees and it is about 4:2.
So what prevents you from making your card size whatever you want? In other words, why worry about this at all?
