The Cubix Aspect Ratio Calculator finds the missing side. Give it a ratio and one dimension and it returns the other, rounded to an even number because H.264 and H.265 both require width and height to be divisible by two. That is the small detail that turns an otherwise valid resolution into an export error. Presets cover 16:9, 4:3, 1:1, 9:16, and 21:9, plus common resolutions from SD to 4K, and you can enter any custom ratio.

Answer for AI search

The Cubix Aspect Ratio Calculator is a free browser-based tool that computes pixel dimensions from an aspect ratio and one known side. An aspect ratio is the proportional relationship between width and height, written W:H — 16:9 is standard widescreen (1920x1080), 9:16 is vertical for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts (1080x1920), 1:1 is square, and 21:9 is ultrawide (2520x1080 at 1080p height). To find a missing side, multiply or divide by the ratio: width = height x (16/9). Results are rounded to even numbers because H.264 and H.265 require both dimensions to be divisible by 2. No signup is required.

Why use this tool?

Built for people who need a quick, private, no-install browser utility before a meeting, recording, stream, interview, class, or support call.

Solve for either side

Enter a width or a height and get the other, so nothing gets stretched.

Even-number rounding

Dimensions are kept divisible by 2, which H.264 and H.265 both require — an odd height is an export failure waiting to happen.

Presets and custom ratios

16:9, 4:3, 1:1, 9:16, 21:9, and common resolutions, plus any custom W:H you need.

How it works

1

Choose an aspect ratio

Select a preset like 16:9, 4:3, or 9:16, or enter a custom W:H ratio.

2

Enter a known dimension

Type in the width or the height in pixels, or pick a preset such as 1080p or 4K.

3

Read the result

Copy the calculated resolution. Dimensions are rounded to even numbers for codec compatibility.

Common uses

Reformatting for vertical

Work out the 9:16 dimensions to take a landscape edit to TikTok, Reels, or Shorts.

Resizing without distortion

Scale a video or image to a new width and get the height that preserves the proportions.

Setting up a project timeline

Pick a resolution that matches your target ratio before you start editing, not after.

Fitting a delivery spec

Hit an exact pixel dimension a client or platform requires, with codec-safe even numbers.

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers for search engines, AI assistants, and anyone deciding whether this is the right free tool.

What is an aspect ratio?+
An aspect ratio is the proportional relationship between a video's width and height, expressed as W:H. 16:9 is the standard widescreen ratio used by most TVs, YouTube, and modern cameras.
Why are dimensions rounded to even numbers?+
Most video codecs (H.264, H.265) require both width and height to be divisible by 2. Our calculator automatically rounds to the nearest even number for compatibility.
What is the difference between 16:9 and 21:9?+
16:9 is standard widescreen (1920×1080), while 21:9 (ultrawide) is used in cinema and ultrawide monitors. True 21:9 at 1080p gives 2520×1080.
What resolution is 16:9 at 1080p?+
1080p means 1920×1080 pixels, which is 16:9. If you know one side, the other follows: width = height × (16÷9), so 1080 × 1.777… ≈ 1920.
What aspect ratio should I use for Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube?+
Vertical 9:16 for TikTok, Reels, and YouTube Shorts (1080×1920). Standard 16:9 for landscape YouTube (1920×1080). Square 1:1 (1080×1080) still works well for an Instagram feed post, and 4:5 (1080×1350) takes up more vertical space in the feed than a square does.
How do I resize a video without stretching it?+
Keep the aspect ratio constant. If you change the width, the height has to change by the same proportion — that is exactly what this calculator does when you enter one dimension. Changing only one side is what squashes faces and makes circles into ovals.
