Imported images come in at smaller than original size!

Question

Hello - apologies if this has already been addressed. I am trying to place images into my Indesign file and they are coming in smaller than the original size.

I tried to update yesterday thinking that it would fix it but it didn't. The problem I'm running into is that I'm trying to to place files into my InDesign file and it says the file is scaled to 100% but that it is 921.524 x 518.357 px - but the file being imported is actually 1920 x 1080 px.

I've tried this with the PNG file shown in the screenshot attached (150ppi) as well as a TIF version of the file (300ppi) and both come in at half the original size.

You're image is saved at 150ppi. InDesign assumes all images, when pixel are used as the measurement in InDesign to be 72ppi. Resave the image in Photoshop.
