Just on a final note to this thread, for anyone using it now or in the 
future as reference, the aspect ratio is right:up, so since mine was 
400x100, a 4:1 ratio, it was right x*4; up y*1, and then I have modified 
those to get the proper "zoom" of the camera, but the ratio must be kept 
4:1, so it can be modified to say, 100:25.
