Yes.  If althor's keeping the pillarboxing, which he is, then 720→984.

The pillarboxing fluctuates considerably in thickness throughout LDs, which means that cropping it off before resizing requires breaking the video into sections, cropping them appropriately, and then splicing them back together.  Needless to say, this is laborious, and I don't suppose that althor has the time.
