do you have a youtube link to one of your videos with the black bars ?? someone can probably tell from the settings what you uploaded ( resolution ) … and help you figure out a solution maybe … depending on how strong your computer is...
your capture device is a game capture card .. right ??? In the specs it says you have the following options for recording,,
supported resolutions
1080p60, 1080p30, 1080i, 720p60, 720p30, 576p, 576i, 480p
The first 5 are 16:9 aspect ratio and should upload to youtube without black bars...
The last 3 or older ( like old CRT TV sets, called standard definition (SD) ) and are 4:3 aspect ratio ( more squarish and not as wide as 16:9 )
it's a little weird cause the 1080p is really 1920x1080 .. and the second number is what is used for the ID of stuff.
1920x1080 is called Full High Definition ( FHD), and 1280x720 is called High Definition ( HD ) and both are 16:9 ratio.
If you take an bunch of squares that are exactly the same size and line them up ( across and down a screen ) you would have 16 across and 9 down to make 16:9. And for Standard Definition ( SD ) you would have 4 across and 3 down for 4:3.
That's why the 4:3 gets black bars when you stick it into a 16:9 frame.
hehe, it's weird, but once you know it things get easier to figure out ...
good luck !
Unfortunately, there is no automatic way to remove letterboxing (black bars top and bottom) or pillarboxing (black bars on the left and right). Here are some possible solutions to remove black bars or letterboxing:
If you have already cut footage in your timeline...
- Change the vertical size of your sequence in SEQUENCE SETTINGS. This can be used to naturally crop videos in your timeline. If all your footage at the same pixel aspect ratio--this should be easier. If you have different footage clips at differenct aspect ratios, you may have to custom scale each clip to
If you wish to just remove all letterboxing or pillarboxing from all our video clips "before" editing...
- Use Adobe Media Encoder to create a new PRESET to CROP all your footage and create new master video clips. To accomplish this, load a sample footage clip and create a new ENCODING PRESET or INGEST PRESET from scratch using the SOURCE panel to set a custom crop for images of a specific size and aspect ratio. Once have created this, you can either add your clips to Media Encoder and apply this preset to process a batch of clips or use the settings to INGEST your clips and automatically crop and create new footage directly into Premiere. Note: If you have clips at different sizes and aspect ratios, you will have to create a custom preset for each.
If you give us more information about your media like specific sizes and aspect ratio--we can help you more specifically.
