al_get_vid...led_height(3)

💖 al_get_video_scaled_height(3) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the Library Functions Manual, Allegro 5 API corner. We are talking about exactly one function, and she is serving height realness. 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

al_get_video_scaled_height — Allegro 5 API

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <allegro5/allegro_video.h>

float al_get_video_scaled_height(ALLEGRO_VIDEO *video)

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

This function returns the height with which the video frame should be drawn. Yes, height. The way that videos often do not use square pixels is lowkey the whole plot twist here, so this will may return a value larger than the height of the frame bitmap. (The original really says “will may” — iconic grammar moment, but the meaning is clear: bigger-than-bitmap-height is possible.)
