Using both landscape and portrait in the same video

[salukikev@gmail.com]

Hi,

I've been struggling with an edit today.  I have a scene captured by a few different cameras and am assembling that into a single edited video.  My media is captured in both Portrait & Landscape modes.  When displaying portrait, things are fine.  It does the usual addition of black borders on either side.   When I'm using the landscape media (which I rotated), it gets cropped into the portrait form factor rather than occupying that black space as intended.   How can I change that to use both media aspect ratios?

Thanks!

If using recent Videopad versions there are aspect ratio options from both the right-click menu on bin clips and via effects on bin clips or those on the sequence.  Play with them on the individual landscape clips.

Try LETTERBOX first.
