Videos rendering in 360 when I don't want them to

Hey guys--

I'm having an issue with exporting a completed project. I've been editing videos with images, music, etc for weeks with no issue, but starting yesterday, when I export my completed videos, Youtube and Facebook are recognizing them as 360 videos. I think it must have something to do with my export and rendering, but I'm not sure what.

For format, use H.264....for preset, I always use Match Source - High bitrate   and the files always end up as a .mp4. These settings have been working for me in the past, so I'm not sure what changed. Now when I upload exported mp4s into Facebook and Youtube, they recognize my file as a 360 video which throws off everything.

Any ideas what I might be doing wrong? I've googled around a ton, but haven't seen many people running into the same problem.

Thanks.

What is the resolution of your exports? Also, although it shouldnt be, check your export settings under the Video tab and make sure "Video as VR" is NOT check marked. Also, how did you create your sequence initially?

So I'm pretty new to this and don't know all of the features available to me. Looks like somehow "Video is VR" was selected. I just un-selected the option, so hopefully that will fix things.

Weirdly, I didn't know the Video tab even existed until you mentioned it just now. I wonder how it was selected in the first place? I'm not the type to just go around clicking random options.

I bet that'll fix it!

Im wondering if it happened because of the way you created your sequence, which you didn't mention. If these are normal 1920x1080 clips or maybe normal 4K resolution clips, PROBABLY the safest way for newer users to make a sequence is to right click one of their clips in the program monitor and choose New Sequence from Clip. Hope that helps!
