Qwen-Image 2.1 reportedly forces 2.0 megapixel output even when 1.0 MP is selected

Photochromism · reddit · 2026-09-21

A user reports that Qwen-Image 2.1 seems to force 2.0 megapixel output regardless of the resolution selector: setting 1.0 MP at 16:9 (1376×768) still yields 2752×1536 — exactly double. The post asks why; no official explanation yet, possibly a default upsampling or resolution mapping behavior in the pipeline.
