+Set the Display Aspect Ratio for the filter output video.
+
+This is done by changing the specified Sample (aka Pixel) Aspect
+Ratio, according to the following equation:
+@math{DAR = HORIZONTAL_RESOLUTION / VERTICAL_RESOLUTION * SAR}
+
+Keep in mind that this filter does not modify the pixel dimensions of
+the video frame. Also the display aspect ratio set by this filter may
+be changed by later filters in the filterchain, e.g. in case of
+scaling or if another "setdar" or a "setsar" filter is applied.
+
+The filter accepts a parameter string which represents the wanted
+display aspect ratio.
+The parameter can be a floating point number string, or an expression
+of the form @var{num}:@var{den}, where @var{num} and @var{den} are the
+numerator and denominator of the aspect ratio.
+If the parameter is not specified, it is assumed the value "0:1".
+
+For example to change the display aspect ratio to 16:9, specify:
+@example
+setdar=16:9
+# the above is equivalent to
+setdar=1.77777
