Premiere Pro Capture working except capture monitor window wrong aspect ratio

[WScott]

I am using Premier Pro 14.2 to capture video off a Magewell card and have got it working well.

Playback is good on video and audio except for subject matter (me doing classroom lectures during COVID).

Small issue: I am capturing at 1920 x 1080 and capture monitor window is square.  How do I change it to have same aspect ratio as input/output? I have checked preferences and found nothing.  I have changed resolution. Again, no joy.  I am positive this is a simple issue I have overlooked.  Any ideas?

Thank you.

Kinda wacky, Scott. I am an old timer, so I love q's like this.

What codec are you capturing to?

Show us a screen capture of the card's settings. I'm curious too.

Cheers,

I have the same issue with a trial version of Premiere Pro and a Magewell usb capture card, capturing old home videos at 1280x720. The videos turn out fine but the capture window is distorted (square):

The Magewell plugin captures to .mov by default, and that is possibly the only choice.

The card's settings are:
