5509	Video with lower dimensions gets transcoded to higher dimensions	Vijeth		"I uploaded a video with (256, 144) dimensions, and changed the max default size (that a video can be transcoded to) to (1920, 1080). And, to my surprise, the video actually got transcoded to those dimensions.

So, when I viewed it on my local machine, there was zero padding (black colour) added to the top and bottom of the video to be in that resolution (dimensions).

I checked '''skip_transcode()''' method myself, and I realized the dimensionality check was working fine, but there was a problem with container-formats ''(not sure if it is a problem)''.

Basically, the video had 'ISO-MP4' container-format but mediagoblin config container-format string only allowed 'Matroska' container-format, and because of this the video was getting transcoded again (even though all other checks were fine).

'''Shall we remove this container-format check? Or add more container-formats to the config?'''"	defect	new	major	0.13.0	programming		transcoding, video	Boris Bobrov alyph thomzane
