Auto Reframe losing Resolution

New Here ,

When I go to my sequences and hit auto reframe, it drops the resolution of the clips (all of them) down from a normal 1080 down to 112. It also automatically toggles off my motion controls under the Effects tab, so I have to go in an toggle it back on for each clip in the sequence. I'm using Premiere Pro 2020, and it's  fully up to date. So what's going on and how do I fix it?

After doing a bunch of analyzing I found that I had a png logo that was 800x368 pixels. After removing the png from the timeline the autoreframe properly sized the new sequence to 1080 px in height. My guess is that autoreframe may be setting the max height of the new sequence to the maximum height of the lowest resolution element in your sequence.

"1080 down to 112"

 

Um ... trying to figure out what you mean by that ...

Yeah I'm having the exact same issue. 1920x1080 sequence, trying to go to a 9x16. Premiere finished auto reframe and the resulting sequence is 103x183 pixels! Hah. Like, super tiny and weird aspect ratio.

Cody,

 

I can't replicate ... and your aspect ration is veritcal 34:61 which is bizarre ... what options did you set in the Reframe dialog?

Hey so I was turning a 16x9 into. 9x16. For whatever reason premiere set
the resolution of the new sequence to that crazy low setting and ratio. I
was using some full HD and some lower res footage in the original sequence,
but all size to fit the 1920x1080 original sequence. But yeah it was pretty
weird and in the end it may have been faster to do it manually instead of
using the auto reframe, which kinda defeats the purpose hah.

Cody,

 

What process did you use to set the framesize for the lower-res media in the sequence? Fit to framesize, Scale to ... , or simply scaled on the sequence manually?

I wouldn't say there was one thing I did. Sometimes set to frame size but
often the footage had black bars and then needed to be scaled manually to
fix. Either way the intuitive thing I expected was that it would look at
the current sequence of 1920x1080 and go from there 😄

Is there a setting that would help make this work in the future?

I was asking out of curiosity and also to get more data points for anyone else that sees this thread.

 

For testing, you could say test with short sequences with one of each type of size change, and see if they auto-reframe correctly or not.

I'm having this same issue. Using the auto-reframe sequence function to make a 1:1 video and it is dropping the resolution so the end result is tiny and unusable. This has always worked int hte past. Has anyone seen a resolution to this?

I am having the same issue too. My original sequence is 1920x1080. I went to Sequence: Auto Reframe Sequence: Chose Square 1:1, Motion tracking to default, Don't nest clips. When i go to look at the reframed sequence it is 306x306.  Why is it making the resolution so small?

I don't want to manually reframe each clip in my sequence, because there are 100+ edits and inserts, graphics etc. Is there a solution?

I'm having this isue too.
1920x1080 to 1:1 aspect ratio becomes 330 x 330 so losing resolution.
I want it to become 1080 x 1080
Is there an option to do this automatic? Or do I have to do this manual?

I'm having the same issue. I've got 1080p clips at 4k clips, but when I auto resize it makes the height 368 px. I tried creating 4x5 vertical, 9x16 vertical, and 1:1 square. All resulted in a final resolution with a height of 368 px.

That might be correct. Which would surprise anyone who wasn't expecting it to do so.

 

And thanks for posting the information back here!
