16:9 to 4:3

[morice0101]

Hi, i am using Adobe elements 14, and I want to change the width size of my movie, as my movie is stretched. How can i do this. I only see change in format, but keeps the aspect ratio.

Thank you

Are you saying that you're using a 4:3 video in a 16:9 project and the clip is stretched wide?

If so, right-click on the video clip in your Project Assets panel and select Interpret Footage. One of those settings will fix this. (Without knowing the exact specs of your video and your project settings it's hard to say exactly which -- but if you experiment you'll find the solution in just a few clicks.)
