This is why i love Davinci Resolve, resolution, and aspect ratio, give you full controll in an easy way, before loading, and dragging in the timeline, you need to set your resolution, and aspect ratio, then below the viewing area, you can adjust “crop” and “transform” (pull down arrow) which one is needed in your case, the black and dark grey area’s are the indications, of what is in your “frame” or not, also check the format again when you “deliver”.
also, at “delivery” you can still adjust the aspect ratio factor, x and y are default “linked”, clicking on the link symbol, will un-link this,( if needed for anamorphic)
Most of the time it’s experimenting with short clips to see if the result is what you had hoped for.
