Lets say that I choose a bunch of differents images with diferentes dimensions and sizes (for example)



And then I want all files with 1600 X 900px, and magically it transform all images in something like that:



(it blurs the same image in the background witch is occupying 100% of the size that i choose before, and position the image on the center without crop the original image)

So basically I want an automatic way to do it. It can be anything, a specific program, a website, a configuration on illustrator... seriously, anything.

I'd agree with others who have commented that such edits are often annoying, but anyway, that's not what you asked. You asked if it was possible to automate it, and it certainly is possible.

You could do it in Photoshop by recording an action to automate it.

Begin recording a new action, with the image already open:


Click Image > Image size, and resize it to 900px high with maintain aspect ratio checked, and resample checked
Select all (CTRL+A), and copy (CTRL+C)
Click File > New, select the clipboard size.
Hit paste (CTRL+V)
Image > Image size, and resize to 1600px wide with maintain aspect ratio checked, resample checked
Apply a gaussian or lens blur
Select all (CTRL+A), copy (CTRL+C). Close the document, don't save
Set canvas size to 1600 wide, 900 high.
Paste (CTRL+V) the blurred layer
Select all (CTRL+A), hit the Align Vertical Centres icon in the toolbar along the top
Click and drag the blurred layer under the unblurred layer in the layers panel.


Stop recording the action.

Then you could open any image, and play back the action. You could even play the action back using the File > Automate > Batch, on a whole folder full of images.

Here's an example of what the action does. You can see the action steps in the actions palette.
