Hey guys this might be a really amateur question.

I have 4 k footage in 17.9 ratio when played back on YouTube it's got pillar boxing (black bars on top and bottom) I know you can change 4:3 to 16:9 which is the play back ratio on YouTube but can you change 17.9 to16.9??

Probably has 4K footage at 4096x2160 rather than UHD at 3840x2160.

Put the 4K clip into a UHD-sized Sequence. Part of the image will be cropped, but it should fill the screen with no bars. Use Motion > Scale if needed to size to taste. Export as UHD, 1080p or 720p, all of which are 16:9 formats.

Thanks
