Any pointers would be appreciated. Still not resolved.

Anyone?

Hi,

Most of my files are all still images created in illustrator and the document properties of each varies considerably, however, I have generally resized them to my liking with PP and they seem to look good from the preview. Although, obviously I’m doing something incorrect as I’m getting the black bars?

Hi,

I eventually managed to resolve the error by creating a new sequence and compiling the files from scratch, a waste of time and quite frustrating, but at least it worked in the end.

Hi,

I have since been playing around with different aspect ratios and managed to resolve the black sidebars, however now I have letterboxing instead. Neither of the black bar variations has ever been visible within PP itself, I can only observe them after exporting the file and playing it in either VLC media player or once uploaded to YT.

The goal of the project is YT, and they make it clear that unless the video has a 16:9 aspect ratio it will be formatted with black bars. For this reason, I am using a widescreen 16:9 ratio setting in PP, but that doesn’t seem to be working.

Does the original document properties need to have the correct dimensions? In my mind, I assumed PP would correct or at least crop them to the required to aspect ratio/settings. Importantly, most of the files are PNG and not video clips.

Thanks in advance

Thank you very much 🙂
