Playing 3:4 content on 16:9 screen

Post by p8guitar »

I have 3:4 clips playing, the composition size is set to 1024x768. When I play this on a 1920x1080 monitor, the content gets stretched, so that it fills the whole screen. This is ok, but I wonder if there is an option for the output of the composition to fill, fit or stretch the content, like the options that can be found in the layer properties?

There are multiple ways to reach what you want....

When you are sure you only have 4/3 Content and your Comp should stay 4/3 1024x768 as well then i would sugest you take a look at the advanced output and stretch your slice (Output) there as you like it to be.

A solution with more possibilities for quick acces would be to set your comp to 16/9 (1280x720 i.e.) and place your Content in that comp... Now you can use the Layer or Clip options to stretch/fill/fit your content like you wish...
With this Solution you can setup every Clip differnt if they look better with differnt settings...
