+The resize filter takes three parameters:
 
 - `$dimension`, an instance of `FFMpeg\Coordinate\Dimension`
 - `$mode`, one of the constants `FFMpeg\Filters\Video\ResizeFilter::RESIZEMODE_*` constants
 - `$useStandards`, a boolean to force the use of the nearest aspect ratio standard.
 
+If you want a video in a non-standard ratio, you can use the padding filter to resize your video in the desired size, and wrap it into black bars.
