How to edit my video in portrait mode?

Hey! I'm editing some video that a friend of mine took, and he of course held the phone in portrait mode
So now I'm editing it in portrait mode, mixed with some other landscape shots. But that's not so much the issue. I need help with scaling the portrait shots correctly, as now the overview window cuts the video in half while the preview window shows it just fine.
Picture:
So how do I scale the overview window to whats shown in the preview window?
Thanks for all your help!

I suspect that the issue is that the overview window is showing the *sequence* settings while the preview window is showing the clip settings (which is "side-ways").
I just did a test with a vertical clip. When I dragged it into an exisiting sequence I got the same result you did. Premiere did *not* ask if I wanted to confrom the sequence to the clip. It did not actually "scale" the clip but it did show the same thing you have where only part of the clip is visible.
When I dragged the clip to the "make new sequence from clip" icon. I got a properly sized sequence and preview window.
Of course that's not going to help you much if you're combining portrait and landscape footage.
I would start by dropping a piece of landscape video in a sequene and conform the sequence so you know it's right for that footage. Then drop a portrait shot in (doesn't matter which one) and go to "Effects Controls" amd Motion. Scale the clip down so it fits the window and make a note of the percentage. Now you've got the formula for all future portrait clips.
To get the bounding box change the "Fit" option to a percentage in the overview window.
Hope this helps

Is there a way to create and edit a video in portrait mode / 9:16 in Premiere Elements 12 or 13. Playback on an iPhone in portrait position.

I'm editing iPhone app video for posting as the first screen in the Apple app store. Required size for the video is 750:1334, 9:16. I there a way to setup the initial video in portrait mode? Many posts for how to rotate a specific clip, but I need the whole video in portrait position. How to accomplish this? I'm using Windows 7 and Premiere Elements 12 and now 13.

Thanks for giving this portrait Edit area monitor shape a look.
I have Windows 7 64 bit and Windows 8.1 64 bit and have done the work using Premiere Elements 12/12.1 on Windows 7 64 bit.
Here is a step by step
Find the DSLR [email protected] file
Local Disk C\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Elements 12\Settings\SequencePresets\NTSC\DSLR\1080p\
And, in that 1080p Folder is the DSLR 1080p30@ 29.97.sqpreset file that you seek.
1. Copy the
DSLR 1080p30@ 29.9.sqpreset fileI
and paste it to the computer desktop in a newly created folder named 1920p.
2. Open the 1920p Folder and edit the ..sqpreset file in Notepad.
To do that right click the .sqpreset, and, from the pop up, select Open With and then Notepad.
3. In the Notepad document, you are going to edit in only 2 places for now, switching 1920 and 1080 to 1080 and 1920 at the top and bottom
sections of the Notepad document.
Then go specifically File Menu/Save of the Notepad document and hit Save.
4. At this point, you have the edited.sqpreset file in the 1920p Folder on the computer desktop.
(Change the name of the edited .sqpreset file so that it = DSLR [email protected])
Move the 1920p Folder from there to add it to the 1080p Folder, the location where you found the original .sqpreset file that you edited.
Close out of there.
5. Back in the Premiere Elements 12/12.1, manually set the project preset to the new project preset
6. When you import your 1080 x 1920 9:16 video file into the project and drag it into the Timeline, you should see
Note that there is no orange line over that Timeline content, indicating that you are seeing
the best possible preview of the image.
7. As I wrote before,
But, here is the hang up. If I render the Timeline content to get the best possible preview at the Edit level, the video in the Edit area monitor
squeezes in resulting in black borders to the left and right of the video image on screen.
But, otherwise I found I had no problems editing or exporting, just had to keep away from Timeline rendering for previewing after an edit. Need to find the missing ingredient for 100%.
I will be writing this up in my blog in a more organized fashion including how I got the project preset description in Change Settings to agree with the changes. Probably I will do that in the morning.

I am using elements & premiere 12 on my PC using windows 7. My problem is that photos in portrait view in slideshow are OK but when I move the slideshow to premiere to edit included video the portrait photos turn side-on and stretch when still in portrait view. Is there any way to prevent this from happening? Any comments would be appreciated.

What is the Output option that you are selecting for the transfer of the Elements Organizer 12/12.1 slideshow to Premiere Elements 12/12.1 Editor?
If you are using Edit with Premiere Elements output option, are you using the Premiere Elements command to break apart the Elements Organizer slideshow and then applying rotation to the portrait files? Or, it is this more than just a photo rotation matter?
More on this in the morning.
Please review and consider.
Thank you.

How can I return maps to portrait mode in iOS7 ?

While on my way to meeting today and iPhone maps doing it's usual poor job of being a map, it somehow turned to landscape mode. How do you switch it back to portrait mode?

How to edit a video that has already been exported?

I have a video which was exported, however I would like to go back and edit some things. When I open FCPX, I am unable to find the video file at all, and the only way I can even see it in the program is by importing the already exported file. Obviously I cannot edit the video. If there are any suggestions on what can be done to retrieve the file, it would be very much appreciated! Thank you!

Hi Mikaelaken,
FCPX is generally good at keeping track of your projects, events and media.
What version of FCPX are you running?
If you dont see the project at all in your projects/events list, it may be that you moved some files about outside of FCPX in Finder? I suspect it isnt lost, just misplaced
Perhaps a brief description of your recent workflow/activity with respect to this project may help us to help you
Cheers,

How to edit screens recorded in training mode?

This one is really bugging me. Why? Because I've done it before but forgotten how!
The task:
Some months ago I had to capture "a lot" of user actions from a SME (Subject Matter Expert) on a particular online application. I clearly remember we set up Captivate 4 to record his actions as he went through each screen. I'm pretty sure it was set to record in "automatic/ training mode". Later, when he was done, I went back in to each CP slide and edited/cropped each of the background images/screens using the internal CP image editor because each screen was saved as an image (as opposed to an embedded background).
Now, I have a similar task to perform but I can't remember the exact setting I used in CP to achieve this. I've tried multiple combinations but everytime the screen is recorded as a background - hence, not editable.
Any ideas?

Hello,
Not sure if this is the work flow you are looking for:
Find the background in the Library
Use the right-click menu and choose Edit background
But you are also talking about cropping? Do you want to change the resolution of the project? Then you'll have to rescale the project, think you'll find it in the Project menu (I'm on Captivate 5)

HT5622 Could someone tell me how to edit a video taken from my iPad? I just want to extract a particular moement taped. Thanks so much!

Could you kindly let me know how to find the information about editing iPad generated videos.
Thank you,

You can get your videos off your iPad, either syncing them off or uploading/downloading them. then you can use something like mpegstreamclip to pull out only a segment. (It's freeware, you can google it)
You open your video in mpegstreamclip then mark the in and out that you want to pull out, choose the format you want it to be and then let it do its thing.

Recorded a video in portrait mode and want to switch it to landscape mode is there any way else to do it without useing quicktime pro....hope apple fixes this in ios 7 the video should come out in landscape regardless of the way you hold your phone

is there any way else to do it without useing quicktime pro....hope apple fixes this in ios 7 the video should come out in landscape regardless of the way you hold your phone or if you start in portrait and go into landscape while recording

You used the data. Verizon can not see what it was sued for. However your phone can see whats apps used the data. go to settings-data usage- there will be a place that says data usage cycle. line the dates up with your cycle. then there will be a bar graph below that extend bother white bars one all the way to the left and one all the way to the right. after those are extended below that will be a list of apps, there should be one that used over 2 gb and that will show you what app used that data in her purse

How to edit source sequence from 'multicam mode' sequence (not bearing multicam icon)?

I'm 'multicam editing' what i believe I setup as a regular sequence, then enabled (i believe by nesting) as opposed to a textbook multicam sequence setup with multicam icon where you setup a 'source' then a 'target' prior to starting. my 'multicam' sequence that works like a charm does not bear the multicam icon. Is there a difference between the two or are they essentially the same?
I was able to switch cameras on the fly like a charm so i 'multicam' edited an entire show when I realized I had 1 minor audio-to-picture beat-mismatch to correct in the source.
I read that to fix this, press Ctrl+Shift+F where you want to open the source sequence in the Timeline panel (and this did open expanded tracks as expected near that designated point in the timeline) so i made the quick edit and saved changes. But now playing back my multicam sequence (that does not have a multicam icon), I'm not sure what i must do to see those changes so i can continue/finish my show edit? it isn't automatically doing this as i would expect.
i'm forced to wonder what's going on, what 'source' I actually edited, and how or if it is connected to my multicam sequence if at all. my icons seem reversed to me i.e. the sequence with expanded independent a/v tracks bears the 'multicam' icon whereas the sequence I actually did the multicam switching on the fly does not bear the 'multicam icon' or the audio-picture realignment edit I made in the expanded tracks.
if these two are related, why do edits in the expanded sequence not reflect in the collapsed. is there any other way to reveal/expand the multicam sequence? so confused.

How to record a video in portrait orientation?

I am developing an app which uses MediaCapture class to record videos. I want to give user freedom to record video in either portrait or landsapce by just rotating the device. Please note my app has fixed portrait orientation. Due
to fixed orientation, I am using OrientationChanged event of class SimpleOrientationSensor.
Now I have noticed that the portait video recorded in default camera app and in my app has some differences. You can see the difference in below given images. All the videos are in 720p resolution. The player images are of portrait
locked orientation. The code is also given below. Can any one explain me what's wrong with my code to record the portrait video? Thanks!
MediaCaptureInitializationSettings set;
MediaCapture _camCapture;
VideoRotation videoRotation = VideoRotation.None;
bool _isRecording = false;
// Camera resource disposal is handled properly
private async Task InitializeCamera()
try
if (set == null)
set = new MediaCaptureInitializationSettings();
DeviceInformation deviceID = (await DeviceInformation.FindAllAsync(DeviceClass.VideoCapture))
.FirstOrDefault(x => x.EnclosureLocation != null && x.EnclosureLocation.Panel == Windows.Devices.Enumeration.Panel.Back);
if (deviceID != null)

_camCapture = new MediaCapture();
await _camCapture.InitializeAsync(set);

Hello,
I would recommend that you modify your code to match the
Media Capture sample's advanced capture scenario. Instead of using SimpleOrientationSensorOrientationChangedEventArgs.Orientation use Windows.Graphics.Display.DisplayInformation.
Here is the code from the sample:
private void DisplayInfo_OrientationChanged(Windows.Graphics.Display.DisplayInformation sender, object args)
m_displayOrientation = sender.CurrentOrientation;
OrientationChanged();
private void PrepareForVideoRecording()
try
if (m_mediaCaptureMgr == null)
return;
bool counterclockwiseRotation = m_bReversePreviewRotation;
if (m_bRotateVideoOnOrientationChange)
m_mediaCaptureMgr.SetRecordRotation(VideoRotationLookup(m_displayOrientation, counterclockwiseRotation));
else
m_mediaCaptureMgr.SetRecordRotation(Windows.Media.Capture.VideoRotation.None);
catch (Exception exception)
ShowExceptionMessage(exception);
private Windows.Media.Capture.VideoRotation VideoRotationLookup(
Windows.Graphics.Display.DisplayOrientations displayOrientation,
bool counterclockwise)
switch (displayOrientation)
case Windows.Graphics.Display.DisplayOrientations.Landscape:
return Windows.Media.Capture.VideoRotation.None;
case Windows.Graphics.Display.DisplayOrientations.Portrait:
return (counterclockwise) ? Windows.Media.Capture.VideoRotation.Clockwise270Degrees :
Windows.Media.Capture.VideoRotation.Clockwise90Degrees;
case Windows.Graphics.Display.DisplayOrientations.LandscapeFlipped:
return Windows.Media.Capture.VideoRotation.Clockwise180Degrees;
case Windows.Graphics.Display.DisplayOrientations.PortraitFlipped:
return (counterclockwise) ? Windows.Media.Capture.VideoRotation.Clockwise90Degrees :
Windows.Media.Capture.VideoRotation.Clockwise270Degrees;
default:
return Windows.Media.Capture.VideoRotation.None;
I hope this helps,
