Resize Image to 854x480 (480p Widescreen)

What is 854×480 (FWVGA, 480p 16:9)?

854 × 480 is 480p in widescreen with square pixels, also known as FWVGA (Full Wide VGA). The width comes from 480 × 16 ÷ 9 = 853.3, rounded up to 854. It is the size a 480p stream uses on YouTube and other players, and it was the screen of early widescreen smartphones such as the original Motorola Droid.

At a glance: 854 × 480 pixels, aspect ratio 16:9, 409,920 pixels in total (about 0.41 megapixels). The tool opens with exactly this size preset and the Fit with background mode selected, so most images need no extra settings.

How to resize an image to 854×480

1. Add your images. Drop them on the upload area, click to choose files or paste a screenshot with Ctrl+V. JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, HEIC, GIF, BMP, TIFF and SVG are accepted, many files at once (up to 80 MB each).
2. Check the framing. The size is preset to 854 × 480 with Fit with background: the whole picture stays visible and empty space is filled with white, black, light grey, any colour you pick or transparency (PNG, WebP). Prefer no borders? Switch to Crop to fill and choose which part to keep.
3. Pick format and quality. Keep the original format or convert to JPG, PNG, WebP or AVIF. The quality slider starts at 90%; alternatively set a Target size in KB and the tool lowers only the quality, never the 854×480 dimensions.
4. Compare. Drag the before/after slider across the preview to check sharpness and framing.
5. Download. Save each image, or click Download all (ZIP) for a batch. Files are named name-854x480 automatically; the pattern and a DPI value can be changed under More options.

Where 854×480 is used

• Stills, title cards and overlays for 480p (16:9) video
• Lightweight widescreen previews and placeholders on websites
• Artwork for 16:9 DVD menus, before stretching it to 720 × 480
• Small widescreen displays and FWVGA devices

Images with a different aspect ratio

Any 16:9 source (1080p screenshots, 4K video frames, most TV and monitor captures) scales straight to 854 × 480 with no bars and nothing cut off. Phone photos in 4:3 are taller: the default Fit with background keeps them whole with side bars, and Crop to fill removes part of the top and bottom. For example, a 4:3 phone photo (4032 × 3024) set to 854×480 with Crop to fill loses about 25% of its height (top and bottom edges); with Fit with background it becomes 640 × 480 px with bars of about 107 px on the left and right.

Tips for a sharp 854×480 result

Some video encoders prefer widths divisible by 8 or 16 and use 852 × 480 or 848 × 480 instead; if yours complains, type that width in the Size box. For crisp text, start from a larger 16:9 original and scale down rather than enlarging a small one. A JPG at 85% quality usually stays under 100 KB at this size, ideal for fast previews.

Free, private and made for batches

Everything happens in your browser: your images are never uploaded, location and camera data (EXIF) are removed from every result, and there is no sign-up, watermark or daily limit. Need a neighbouring size? Try 960×540 or 1280×720; the 16:9 image resizer keeps any picture in the same proportions at a size you choose, and the image compressor shrinks the file further if a website or email still rejects it.
