    Of the aspect ratios I know of...
    4:3 16:9 2.21:1 are all the pixels square for these formats?

    None of them are. Only in digital images such as tif and jpg, In video they are rectangular some more than others. I think!

    So if one were to know the aspect ratio of pixels in each format
    3:4, 16:9 and 2.21:1 then one could convert from one aspect ratio
    to another and circles would remain circles and not become elipses...

    However without knowing the size of the pixel one can not.
    So does any one know the size of a pixel in these three aspect ratios?

    Computer pixels are square.
    Are the pixels on a tv 4:3 or 16:9 square also?
    Are the pixels in a divx avi file square also or does it vary depending
    on the source video?
