Applications like gstreamer will pick this resolution if its the closest resolution to the target file resolution. On XO-1 we always pick a low res so gstreamer picks this one. And we end up with a video that only records a miniscule portion of the FOV. All the other settings of the camera scale the image so that the whole FOV is covered. But this one records at normal resolution, only sending a small center portion of the FOV. The same pixels can be read by recording at full res and then just cutting out the center bit.
