Answer 1

Possible algorithm:

1) get output area aspect ratio (=width/height)

2) iterate through supported sizes:

Choose biggest one with close aspect ratio(+-5%, for example) If nothing close or resolution too low - just make yor surface(that you draw frames to) be same aspect ratio as biggest supported size and center it in parent view

Howewer, there are preview sizes & picture sizes. If you wish them to have same aspect ratio - then better choice is to use selected picture size aspect ratio in 1) This way you'll probably have to center your surface in parent view

Hope that helps)
