Youtube video has black border around it

I impoted a short clip from my camera (640x480 4:3 ratio) into the organizer, then from there opened a premiere elements project and shared the video to Youtube.  The video in premiere element looks fine, it has black stripes on the left and right sides which I think is normal given the source resolution/ratio.  The final video on Youtube, however, has a larger black border around the entire video, including black space at the top and bottom. Why is this, how can I get rid of this extra border?

This usually indicates a mismatch between your source video and your project settings.
Which camcorder model did your video come from and how did you get it into your computer?
When you started your Premiere Elements project, which project settings did you select?
My free Basic Training tutorials on Premiere Elements support site Muvipix.com will show you how to set up a project properly.

  • Black border around video!

    I want to upload my video to youtube but it has a massive black border around it. Can someone explain step by step how to get rid of this please. I know it has something to do with the scale but i am relatively new using cs5 and have no idea! please help

    Welcome to the forum.
    Black borders are usually caused by a mis-match with the Source Footage and the Sequence, or with the Export settings.
    Can you please let us know the full details of your Source Footage, and your Sequence Frame Size, and also your Ecport settings?
    Good luck, and thank you for that info.

  • Remove Black Border Around Embedded Flash Video

    Hi-
    I have searched on the Web without luck, so again I have to
    turn tot he forum for help. I believe this should be simple and
    straightforward, but doesn't appear so. I have a simple little
    Flash video embedded in a plain old web page created with DW8. When
    the page is displayed in my web browser it has a thin black border
    around the video. I would like to remove this border (such as one
    might with image border=0). I have tried several "fixes" ranging
    from setting the BODY margin height to 0 to altering my external
    style sheet. None of these worked. I even created a fresh web page
    with no external style sheet at all and the border is still there.
    How on earth do I get rid of that ugly thing? Any help is greatly
    appreciated.

    can we see this border? URL?

  • I have a black border around my video and I would like it to be full screeen

    I am running Premier Elements 10 on a PC and I am getting a black boarder around the video and I have rendered it multiple ways.   Is there a way to get it gone?  This is the link for youtube.  HCC 2014 video Final - YouTube
    Thank you

    Answers in CAPS.  But from playing with the file, it does not appear that I can get rid of the black border.   I would have to start again from scratch.    I tried a FV4 file format and a AVCHD.mp4 format and they both have black borders.   Any other suggestions on how to get rid of the border, or is it impossible at this point.

    created by A.T. Romano in Premiere Elements - View the full discussionBruceKeenan Thank you for the reply with a lot of important details. With a 99.9999% certainty, I believe you issue is thata. you used 4:3 project settings for 16:9 source mediab. when you imported that 16:9 source media you used it as is without scalingit to get rid of the black border at the top and bottom of the frame caused by the 16:9 source ina 4:3 project. Apparently when you opened the new project, you accepted the default which is NTSC DV Standard 4:3 insteadof changing that to the project preset that would best match the properties of your source 16:9. For you to check out... a. Open a new project and, in the new project dialog, click on change settings, followed bychanging the project preset toNTSCDSLR1080pDSLR [email protected]   
    I OPENED A NEW PROJECT AND THE STANDARD SET WAS NTSC-DV-STANDARD-48kHz WHICH IS MY PROBLEM AS YOU POINTED OUT.    
     b. If you really want a F4V file HD, thenShareComputerAdobe Flash Videowith Presets = F4V - HD1080p (Flash 9 and Higher) If you want a MPEG2 file (SD), thenShareComputerMPEGSwith Presets = NTSC DVD Widescreen If you want a MPEG2 file (HD), thenShareComputerMPEG2with Presets = HDTV 1080p 29.97 High Quality If you want to explore with an AVCHD.mp4 file (HD), thenShareComputerAVCHDwith Presets =  MP4 - H.264 1920 x 1080p30 Lots to explore. And, there should be no black borders anywhere. If any questions or needclarification, please do not hesitate to ask. Thank you. ATR Please note that the Adobe Forums do not accept email attachments.

  • Easy way to put black border around cropped video.

    Hi
    I was wondering if anyone knows of an easy way to put a 2-3 pixel black border around a cropped, shrunk video clip.
    Its kind of a picture-in-picture deal, but the "simple border" filter doesn't take into account the cropped edges. I've also tried drop shadow, but I need it to be hard lines.
    Any suggestions (I'm looking for the easy way because I need to apply this effect to about 100 clips, otherwise I'd just put a black colour matte behind the image).
    Cheers
    Chris.

    Layer the Boris Vector Shape generator around your clip. It's a great tool.

    You should also ask this in the iPad forum. This is the forum for the white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

  • Black border around all the pictures in my video.

    I'm new to the forum here and am struggling to find an answer to my problem and wondering if someone might help me. I am using adobe premiere elements 9 to make a picture slideshow.  I have about 90 pictures, with text on several of them and audio throughout the whole thing.  I don't know this program very well, I've used it one other time to make a video.  When it's all done, I burn it to a dvd.  The problem I'm having is that when I burn it to the dvd and play it back in my dvd player, the pictures are reduced in size and there is a black border around them all (all 4 sides).  Do you know what I can do to make it go away?  The last video I make didn't have it so I'm not sure what I've done with this one.  And I did try compressing the pictures and it didn't change anything.
    Thank you so much!
    Alisha

    Steve,
    I actually went through last night and compressed all the pictures to a document size.  Some of them are smaller  (628x439) than 1000 x 750 but some are a little bigger (1024x768).  I noticed as I compressed them in the folder outside of premiere, it also changed them in premiere.  However when I  burnt the new dvd, there was no change.  If I make them smaller (for a website) will that help?  Also, is it something that I would have had to have done before doing the project?  I've already put about 10 hours into this video and really don't want to start it again.
    Bill,
    As of right now I have still images and 3 video clips in this presentation, but if it helps I can get rid of the video clips.  I've actually removed them and tried it again, but had no luck.  And I plan on just burning it to a dvd-r disc to watch on the dvd player.  What this project is is I take pictures from the last year of my daughter and make a "birthday video" for her with music and some text on the still images.
    Also, should I turn on the scale to default frame size?
    I don't know a lot about the video making world, so the verbage kinda goes over my head, but when I began my project I just said ok to whatever it opened it with which says "DSLR-1080p-DSLR [email protected]  I'm now thinking maybe I should have changed the setting, but am at a total loss for what it should be.  Please excuse my ignorance   What I'm wanting to do it just be able to play it on a dvd.
    And lastly, I can't even thank you guys enough for helping me!  I'm beyond frustrated and I really appreciate your kindness!

  • My iphone 6 has a black border around the display

    What do you mean by "extend the display"? If you mean "magically make it bigger", then no.

  • How to get rid of the black border around the artboard

    Hopefully my last question for tonight.
    I need to get rid of the black border around the artboard. The two images show my drawing lined up with the art board and then inside the artboard. The dark gray is not the artboard.
    As you see, the artboard has a black border. I need to get rid of it. It shows up in my project when my color key is green. The black won't go to transparent.
    So how-to get rid of the border? Thanks
    ***Update***
    I figured it out. View > Hide Artboards. Maybe this will help someone. Doesn't change the fact my spider looks like a tick:)

  • Black border around hotspots in Image map?

    I have an image map in my HTML file that contains three
    circular hotspots. When they're viewed in a browser, each one has a
    black border around it after it's clicked on. I've seen other help
    threads on the border problem talk about putting 'border:none" in
    the IMG tag, but there's no IMG tag..it's an image map and border
    is already set to "0". The code is below:

  • Black border around screen

    Hello, I'm not entirely sure when this started but I have an annoying 1/4" black border around my screen. I think it has to do with scaling, but can't find an option within the integrated Intel HD Graphics to change built-in monitor.  This notebook has Intel HD graphics 4400, and is running the most current Intel Graphics HD and WIndows 8.1. Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks!

    , Hello and thanks for posting on the HP support forums.  The first step you should try is a system restore back as far as you can go.  This will change your configuration back and remove any updates that may have caused this. HP PCs - Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 10,8) Here are a couple other links that may be of help. HP Notebook PCs - Troubleshooting a Notebook LCD Panel Issue (Windows 8/8.1, 7) And. HP Notebook PCs - Resolving Problems with Notebook Displays (Windows 7 and Windows 8) Please let me know how things go. Thanks again for posting and have a great day.

  • Black border around jpegs even tho frame size set right

    Hi
    Can a friendly soul please tell me why my images are not the same width as my video footage.
    The project is set to "standard" at 720 by 576.
    When I set up the image prior to importing to CS3 i make sure they are the same 720 by 576.
    Yet after theyve been imported i get a virtical black border around the left and right side. the pic is too narrow.
    Experimenting with the sizes before import it seems 769 by 576 is about the right size.
    But now the image (its a movie title) moves ever so slightly as i play the timeline. Its the first clip in the project.
    Images are created in photoshop and then saved as Jpegs.
    Video footage is DV PAL quality filmed on a Sony pd150 camcorder (this is a GREAT bit of kit btw)
    thanks in advance

  • Black Border around movie in HD

    I'm a newbie so apologies if this is a really dumb/basic question.
    I recently edited a movie that I shot in HD (1080i). I edited it in Final Cut Express but there is a thick black-border around the whole thing, which is the say the footage doesn't fill the screen, and this isn't letter-boxing, it's a square around everything. How do a remove this? When I export it to quicktime it distorts the picture.
    Here is what I'm talking about:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZ5il5ZfZ1c

    It looks as if its been captured incorrectly? Are you sure you shot HD 1080i? If yes, it looks as if the camera downconverted on export and you used a DV setting. Make sure you use the correct HDV setting to capture. Make sure the sequence you're working in is also set to the correct HD format. Make sure the camera is outputting HD and not outputting DV.

  • Black border around bg image

    Hi I have given up on the random bg images for my client's site at www.carterbrands.com  I have allocated an image per page.  I am getting a black border around the image.  I dimly remember that there is a way around this but I have forgotten what it is.  Any help greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance, Matt.

    But... my layout grid is 1010 by 740.
    I'm sure it is
    However, your grid floats on a page that is whatever size your various viewers choose. Change your screen resolution, pull your browser window out wide or shrink it up small - a web page is fluid, flexible - and has NO fixed size.
    We design for a particular width in pixels (some of us, not all the time) - in the hope that most of our target audience will see that fitting neatly on to their screen most of the time, but we have to accommodate people who make different choices.
