Resize to Fit into 1920 x 1200 pixels?

Retrobatch

Hi Gus,
I’ve downloaded the trial of Retrobatch to see if it can do a specific task. I’m sure what I want must be possible, but I can’t see how to do it.
I’m the competition secretary at my local camera club and members submit images to me for competitions. They often send full-size images but we project at 1920 pixels x 1200 pixels.
What I need to do is drop a folder of images into Retrobatch and have it resize them to fit into 1920 x 1200.
Examples: a photo with a 3:2 aspect ratio needs to be resized to 1800 x 1200, whereas a photo with a 2:3 aspect ratio needs to be resized to 800 x 1200.
None of the options in ‘Scale’ seem to do this - is it possible?
Thanks
Gareth

I believe this is possible using the Rules node and three different scale nodes. Here’s a little screenshot of what I’ve got:

And here’s the workflow: fit_1920x1200.retrobatch (11.7 KB)

The trick is to use the Rules node to split up landscape and non-landscape (which includes square images), and then scale them a little bit differently than you normally would.

I should add a “max width and height” option to the scale node, where it keeps an aspect ratio. I’ll add that to the list.
