It depends what you are starting with . But in general you do not want the sar to match the dar . eg. For 1280x720, the DAR is 16:9, but the SAR is usually 1:1 (square pixel)

If the input is not square pixel, but is supposed to be, you can set the sar to 1:1 by using -vf setsar=sar=1/1

If it's something else you need to provide more info on the input

If the original image is 720x720 , not stretched (ie. a square), you would need to pad the borders (add pillarbox black bars) to make 1280x720

If that 720x720 was not a typo , you would add 280 pixel borders to the left and right , assuming you want it centered

-vf pad=w=1280:h=720:x=280:y=0
