You will have to either decrease the size of the video in the Motion Properties (but you will get black all around the video if the media matches the sequence) or you will have to create a custom sequence size to allow extra height for the black bars.

I downloaded both of your 1920x1080 images. I put the cropped version on V1 and original above it on V2. Using the Motion effect, I unchecked Uniform Scale, and then decreased the Height setting to vertically squish the image down until it matched your cropped version. Looks like 80.3% is about what you need. Subjects will look slightly shorter and wider, but NONE of the image gets cut this way.

Scaled image -

vs original

AS you say custom sequence size i did it on 1440 x 1080 4:3 ratio i get what i want Thanks You

also i scale the video to height 70 width 75 to match the sequence size and i get pretty much what i wan~

If you upload this to Youtube or Vimeo you will have black bars on the side also.

1440x1080 is NOT a recognized HD video format - as Ann points out, since HD is 16:9 widescreen, YouTube or Vimeo will fill that extra space with black so you will end up with the video surrounded by black similar to this look -

I upload to facebook.. and yes surrounded by black bar ....

So back to square one:

Either dont use black bars or accept the image is cut off.

[SAFEHARBOR11]

Maybe just do the simple 80% Height Scale and be done with it, probably no one will notice

Thanks

You cannot have black bars without either distortion or cropping.

You can adjust the image vertical (up or down) if you want.
