MeGUI now uses DAR, not SAR. So calculation of SAR is a moot point.... and calculation of DAR is independant of the resolution, which makes it more intuitive.

Just rest assured that everywhere that you can edit the Aspect Ratio in MeGUI, it is DAR, which doesn't depend on the resolution. So you should have no problems (assuming you are using 0.2.3.2059 or later). You should see in the script creator that it now recommends Aspect Ratios of things like 16:9, 4:3, 1:1, 47:20, 37:20. These are Display Aspect Ratios, and they are used throughout MeGUI. Don't worry about the effects of resizing -- only cropping is relevant.
