How do I make my footage take up the whole screen in my video?

I've spent many hours putting together a video with footage from 3 different cameras. I've done this before without problems, but when I did it this time, my video came out very small, as you can see in the picture below. How do I create the video to fill the entire space in video players, without letterboxes. But I do want to keep the entire shot. So, I want the footage to take up the whole screen, without excluding pieces of any shots. I want footage & pictures that have smaller dimensions/resolutions than other pictures to expand to the size of the footage/pictures with big dimensions/resolutions, even though it means i'll loose some image quality.
Is this something that's done in the export menu video settings, which I'm showing in the pic below?
I don't know what I can offer you for you help, but any help is very appreciated, I have big dreams of becoming a YouTube video creator!

Well ... to start, we need to know what your sequence settings are, as that vertical layout of the black edging is rather unusual. That would be "Sequence/Settings" and looks like this:
Then in the lower corner, your Project panel ... click on the far left lower icon of lines so you see information as lines of data rather than thumbs like so ...
Then hit the "tilde" key on your keyboard (upper left to the left of the numbered keys atop the typical keyboard) so that panel goes big, and you can see the data on all assets in the project ... like so ...
Notice everything's got frame rate, duration, start & end points, frame-size and all. That gives you the info on various clip properties. That's the info to get you started, and perhaps "us" a bit more understanding of 1) where you're at and with some other comments, 2) where you want to be.
As to teaching this ... there are some AdobeTV vids on putting multiple types/sizes of things on a timeline, using re-sizing & interpret commands, also on lynda-dot-com and some other 'paid' teaching sites, and some available free on the web if you search ... you'll need a lot more info & background on this.

Have you tried dragging with the mouse pointer from the small, hatchmarked triangle at the bottom right of the window?

Is it possible to view website on screen without being in a browser? I want the website to take up the whole screen.

Hi,
I was wanting to use my DW website as an interactive
portfolio for an interview. What I want is to have my website on my
laptop screen so that the interviewer and I could browse through my
website on screen without being connected to the internet, or
having to preview it through a browser, but instead so that it
takes up the whole screen, is this possible?
My interview is tomorrow (eek) so a prompt response would be
much appreciated,
Thanks

If it needs a server, install apache on your laptop, its free
and fairly
easy to setup and install.
As for running full screen, open internet explorer and press
F11 to put it
in kiosk mode, it will show the website full screen. (press
F11 to exit
kiosk mode again)

How can I play an audio file without the whole screen going black?

When I play the mp3 file on IE it opens in a small screen so I can still see the web page.
On Firefox the whole screen is taken up with the sound file being played.
Can this be changed?

Is that file played in a tab in the current window or in a separate pop-up window?
Are you allowing pop-up to modify the window size (dom.disable_window_move_resize = false)?

How can i get Firefox to show on the whole screen/ it just uses the middle of the screen and not the whole screen Thank you

Certain web sites only use the middle of the monitor screen and do not show all their content on the right

You can use one of these extensions to adjust the default font size and page zoom on web pages:

I have an iPhone 5. always before when i called someone..or they called me the picture of them would take up the whole screen. I LOVED it! I could see it. Since the last update it is just a little "bubble" in the upper right hand corner. Can i change

Hi I have an IPhone 5. Always before when I called someone...or they called and I had a pic set up for them in my contact list..... it would pop up the full size of the screen. I LOVED it! I could actually see it. Now...since the last update...or maybe the one b4 that.... The pic is just a little bubble that floats to the upper right hand corner. Does anyone know if there is a way I can get that full size pic back?

I'm sorry, there is no way to change that. It is a change with the newer iOS 7. You can provide feedback to Apple, like a large group of others have that are disappointed in this at www.apple.com/feedback and click on the appropriate link.

How can I change the display of Inbox in my iPad's mail app- so that it takes up the full screen?

How can I change the display of Inbox in my iPad's mail app- so that it takes up the whole screen, as opposed to just about one third; the other two thirds display the full text of the selected email?

You can't change the display in the Mail app, if you are holding the iPad in landscape orientation then the left-hand third will be for navigation, and the right-hand two-thirds will be an email. If you hold the iPad in portrait orientation then the navigation section becomes a drop-down section.

Perhaps Safari isn't quite what you require, too much work involved all the time making it easier to see
Take a look at my customized Firefox:
it always opens to the same size window (or full screen if you like)
it always zooms all web pages 160% (or whateve you like)
it always has large type on the menu bar area. (to whatever you like)
it's very highly customizable, (or use the plain default settings)
has more add-ons than anyone (a real plus when you need it)
has more themes and personas than anyone (make it YOUR browser)
Easier surfing option for hard of seeing users
Safari is about the absolute worst browser since Internet Explorer, it's because Apple has already got your money so there isn't any incentive for them to make a better browser.

I lost my toolbar - My mozilla firefox takes up the whole page with no toolbar - I just want to restore my toolbar with settings, history, etc

I must have clicked something and the mozilla firefox screen takes up the whole screen and I have no toolbar - it just has the mozilla firefox logo and and "search" box. I just want to restore my toolbar

Hit F11 - that will get you out of Full Screen Mode

Everything on all the webpages are so small, and only take up half the screen. How can I make it bigger, without changing the settings on my computer and by that change the size of everything on my computer.

How do i make it so iTunes plays the music files from where i have chosen to store them?

how do i make it so iTunes plays the music files from where i have chosen to store them as opposed to it scattering copies of my files into a myriad different folders based on the albums they came from when i'm not even interested in keeping whole albums?
I recently converted myself to mac after having been a windows formatted person since the beginning of time. I use last.fm and the client scrobbler only supports iTunes on the mac (scobbling since Nov 06 and i'm now heavily dependant upon it as a means of discovering new music) - if you don't know what that means then take it for granted i have no option other than to use iTunes as my media player whn using the mac. And almost immediately upon using iTunes i was filled with horror.
My tale of woe as follows: I copy all my mp3 files to folder X on my new mac. I copy my simple playlist in to that same folder X. The simple playlist simply lists all the files in folder X in the order i want to hear them in... simple right? And what happens the moment i start playing my simple list? Well you probably all ready know; itunes throws copies of all those files in to the air, scatters them to the four winds so each of them fall into a little folder of their own representing the album they might once have come from. I don't keep whole albums. For me the 'album experience' is a ruse to trick one into listening to weaker material. I only keep the concentrated goodness. I only put up with albums in a previous lifetime because in the days of vinyl i had no other choice apart from spending hours compiling mix tapes. Now i am liberated from these restrictions and have been for the 15 or so years i've been using a computer to listen to music. Until along comes iTunes forcing me backwards in time, frog marching me back into the past.
That simple list i mentioned is my one and only playlist. This single playlist has been evolving for 15 years as tracks are added and removed and their position in the list changes because that song sounds amazing when heard after that other song whereas hearing this song after that song would be like pouring custard over your sausages (for me shuffling is an abomination). And so here is how i've managed this list and managed synchronization of said list and listed files with my mp3 player (currently a Zen).
Adding a new file: After deciding that song is a keeper i will copy it into that simple folder that holds all my music and drop it in to a position on the list i deem most suited for it. Incidentally over this entire 15 year (i'm pretty sure it's been around that long) my media player has been winamp but for the reason previously mentioned i am unable to use winamp in mac world.
Removing a file: fortunately winamp has an option to simultaneously remove a file from the list and the hard drive. And naturally so because after all if i no longer like a song then i want it expunged completely from life or at least from my hard drive and playlist. In the brave new world of iTunes i have to remove from the list there then delete the file from where iTunes copied it from and then the place iTunes copied it to.
Editing the list: drag an item in the list to it's preferred location and select to save it as i would for any other file using any other application... well desktop type application as opposed to one that uses a database as its primary means of storage.
Syncing with the mp3 player: copy drag drop playlist file from the simple folder on the hard drive to the simple folder on the mp3 player as i would for any other file. And then also copy drag drop the most recently created files from simple folder on hard drive to simple folder on player after having ordered them by creation date so as to make it easier to select the most recently created. After a while the mp3 player will fill up with the files no longer on the list so i will delete all files from player then re-copy all flies from simple folder on hard drive to simple folder on mp3 player.
I do not make changes to the list on the mp3 player so synchronization needs only to go one way: from laptop to player.
So all very simple. Apart from editing the positions of files in the list everything is managed by copy drag dropping and deleting files using windows explorer.
But i'm in a mac and circumstances have forced me in to the corner of using iTunes. And this whole iTunes situation is terrifying for me as over the years i've heard horror stories about it deleting all of someone's music files. Perhaps this may have been by using the software incorrectly but even so, the very fact that it appears possible for this to happen simply by using the software incorrectly and the fact that it happens with some degree of frequency given the number of reports of this happening that i have heard of over the years on music discussion forums fills me with dread that i have to now use this software. And given the software's blatant disregard for the user's choice as to where to store his/her files it's no surprise that this happens. The software is pointlessly doing dangerous things with my data. Please make it stop.
Please can i just at the very least make iTunes play the music from the folder i have chosen to put my files in and not copy those files here there and everywhere without my say so? Thankyou.

option discovered in preferences. Really this and any feature that moves deletes or edits a users data should as far as possible be OFF BY DEFAULT. It shouldn't by default and without the users specific say do this dangerous and unnecessary thing without even letting the user know what it's doing!!! And then cause me a few hours (as i'm new to mac) searching for the option so as to switch it off. If i hadn't noticed the status cage declaring that it was copying files then i might never have twigged that this insane thing was occurring. And if i hadn't of noticed i would have been left maintaining the contents of the folder i copied the files to, the folder which as far as i was informed and so believed was also the location of the music files i was playing. How does Apple justify this 'genius' piece of software non-design? Surely it will hurt no one if this was off by default for new users - overall at least i dare say it would cause a lot less distress in the future for the unsuspecting public at large. Thanks for the support.
