Description retired 2014-12-29 15:59:00 UTC 
In #83808 we already agreed that scaling images unproportionally by default is a rather stupid thing to do.

This bug is about adding identical defaults for scaling video.

Currently: resizing a video loses proportions.

Expected: almost no users want unproportional videos in their presentations, thus LO should default to scaling videos proportianlly.

Confirming on OSX 10.10.1 with LO Version: 4.3.4.1

in OSX Keynote, for example, the default is to maintain aspect ration when resizing.

Samuel recently set it to proportionality scale images in all apps in bug 83808, with this commit - http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=ef58e10844dff60cd218306b059ec81d8421f961

I think the only place it really is needed to be added is in impress as audio and video insertion isnt really done anywhere else.

Retested
Version: 7.0.0.1
Build ID: 04ba7e3f1e51af6c5d653e543a620e36719083fd
CPU threads: 8; OS: Mac OS X 10.15.5; UI render: default; VCL: osx
Locale: de-DE (de_DE.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

Video resizing in writer is proportional.
Same for Impress.

Calling this fixed, verified.
