Help! Last minute project, and I need to merge videos from different sources into one video. It looks like some were filmed on iphones vertically, some on windows laptops horizontally. I'm a newbie, so need very clear instructions. So far, some of the videos look "fine" even though they range from horizontal to vertical, but one of them, in the "program" pane, is zoomed in so you only see like 1/3 of the person's face (it's a tall vertical video). Below are the properties for each video.

one of them, in the "program" pane, is zoomed in so you only see like 1/3 of the person's face (it's a tall vertical video). Below are the properties for each video.

What are the properties of that video?

Can you post a screenshot of your "program" pane?

Not the answer to your question, but you should convert those odd frame rates (30.01, 30.07) and any other variable frame rate videos to constant frame rate (MediaInfo will tell you the frame rate https://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo).

Use Handbrake to convert to constant frame rate:

Here is a tutorial:

Shutter Encoder may also be used to convert to Constant Frame Rate:

I need to be able to export it and show it for a presentation, so any format that will work with a standard laptop. I'm editing on my Surface Pro
