How to set correct horizontal and vertical scales of output plane?

I am using Tracker 5.1.5 and need to compensate the perspective error. Therefore I use the perspective filter and set the input square. How do I get the correct output parameters for the rectangular dimension? Because Tracker always distort the video to much, as you can see attached. Is there any possibility to set the horizontal and vertical scales of the output rectangular instead of the pixels? Or can I calculate the output pixels with any tool? Thanks in advance.
