Set to Frame Size vs Scale to Frame Size

[@joschmidt8422]

This was beyond helpful. I'm a novice video maker, I mostly work to create "speed paints" of my drawings. This had the right amount of information without boring me and while also giving me everything I needed to know. Again this was extremely helpful, I want to encourage you to keep making videos, though I know this is an old video.

[@VideoRevealed]

Wow, thanks so much for your kind words. It's people like you that keep me making these tutorials!

[@jones1351]

Thanks. I learned this one the hard way. I do a lot of scanning and zooming. Scale to Frame left me with pixelated images (which I hate). Just out of desperation I tried 'Set To...' and voila, the clouds parted and the choir sang.

[@VideoRevealed]

That's a good way to sum it up. Thanks for watching.

[@spencersharp]

to help anyone out. it's very simple: use set to frame size, not scale to frame size.

[@VideoRevealed]

Some users require different options, that's why there are two choices.

[@spencersharp]

I guess. Btw I have a question maybe tou can answer. My system is a windows and it's capable of editing 4K just fine. However, on my recent project, I notice that when I have more than one track with a 4K video stacked on top of each other (i do this as first step of music video editing-i line up all my clips with the song in sync, then cut from there) the lag is terrible in preview, no matter if it is playing in Full or 1/6 quality. Also, when I check my task manager, the cpu is at like 95%, even though I've done editing like this before with no issues. Any idea or suggestions what might be going on? I just freed up space on my ssd card by clearing out media cache files and preview files so hopefully that will work but I'm not hopeful

[@spencersharp]

Oh and also, the lag is somtimes accompanied by an error message that says "audio is not in sync" , even though i delete the audio from the clips and just have one audio file (the song for the music video). Thank you for reading, I appreciate your videos

[@VideoRevealed]

Normally I'd say that multiple tracks of 4k is the bottleneck but if you've been editing fine like this for a while and all of a sudden changed it's lagging, then that is odd. I'll take a guess that you didn't change any settings, including the Enable accelerated Intel h.264 decoding in the Media section of the Preferences? Other than that, I'm stumped.

[@JimRobinson-colors]

I really like your videos - I am a colorist and trying to broaden my editing - So new to Premiere. I see a lot of people using 4k footage ( UHD ) on a 1080 timeline to crop in or reframe ( pan etc. ). Which is pretty much what you are covering here. My problem arises when you mix that in with Proxies - Need the proxies to work well for multicam but - Premieres way of handling seems a little confusing. I take the 4k files and make 1920 x 1080 proxies and then thought I could use a 980 x 540 timeline and the proxies would be the same scale but it seems that I switch from proxy to original while in that timeline and the preview window changes the file, but not the scale of the preview. Can't find a tutorial on doing this ( 4k to 1080 multicam with proxies ) Do you have something close to that in your repertoire? - Or should I just match resolution and use a quicker codec (smaller bit ) so the end result is closer? What do you recommend for a proxy for multicam?

[@VideoRevealed]

Have you tried to work with proxies this way? kzbin.info/www/bejne/b2qWnpWLlpWbY9k

[@VideoRevealed]

[@jamienorton9172]

Great video! I'm glad I found your site. You are a God send to all newer and older videographers. Big Question....Call me old fashion if you like, I am still using Premiere Pro 6 CC and love it. Recently I bought a Panasonic HC X1. I made some of my own sequences following some other youtube sites, however, I still felt that in some clips, I was missing some pixels that I would need for post zooms. I followed your advice, but PP6 doesn't have the option (that I know of) to set the frame size, only scale. I did "unchecked scale" in preferences, but I have to manually downscale each clip now. Do you agree that this is just the way it is for this version or did I miss something? Thank you in advance for your reply, Jamie

[@VideoRevealed]

Generally speaking, you always want your Sequence settings to match your media. If you Right-click on a clip and choose Properties, that will give you the frame size. Now make a Sequence based on that frame size and all should be fine. You might also try to drag a clip to the New Item icon (the little page icon at the bottom of them Project panel). This feature was added some time ago but it may not be in your version if it doesn't work.

[@jennytoppingadventures2675]

Thank you for this video. I have come back to it many times. very helpful!

[@VideoRevealed]

Thanks for your support.

[@nssdesigns]

Very informative. Do you have a tut on multi camera editing when you can bring in clips shot on different cameras and frame rates. Then set the sequence to smallest file size and rest to set to fit and edit all the footage in one sequence?

[@VideoRevealed]

The functions of resizing multiple formats is not available when making a Multicam Source Sequence; you need to manually change the scale to match the Sequence. Here is a tutorial on creating Multicamera Sequences.

[@paywynsplace]

You are awesome! Love all your videos so far on Adobe Premiere Pro! Very helpful and easy to follow and relaxing to watch.

this is a great channel for premiere pro tutorials, it's a shame that Collin doesn't get more subscribers. you deserve better mister.

@@VideoRevealed Well to be honest most subscribers are the Z generation and a bit less the millennials, those folks are interested in "cool" geeky like hipsters to connect/relate with, not a very serious mature person like yourself.

[@EthanWord]

Great video by the way, but I still have a quick question (and I apologize if this is a super noob question, I am a super noob lol). Do either of these options effect the final resolution of the exported file? And by this I mean, if I say drop some 1080p footage into a timeline to start, then drop some 4K footage and choose scale to frame size to make it fit, when I render at 4K in the export settings, is it still using the 4K source file to render or is it essentially rendering the 4K to 1080 then upscaling to 4K again? Sorry for the complex question, just want to make sure I'm not loosing any of my 4K quality by using either of these options. Thanks!

[@VideoRevealed]

The resolution of the Sequence is the most important setting so when you scale down 4k and drop it in HD, it's essentially HD even when you export at 4k Always work in the highest resolution you expect to export. If you think there's a possibility of exporting at 4k, then make a 4k Sequence. The HD will suffer as it will be scaled but only exporting at 4k, when you export at HD, it's fine.

[@EthanWord]

VideoRevealed alright thanks much for the reply that helps a lot. Very good to know, I was worried I would reduce the quality of the final export and appears I was doing so. But I won't make that mistake again, thanks again. Subbed.

[@TradesDigital]

Hi Colin. Quick question, using Premiere Pro, lately I'm finding when I upload video to twitter I'm getting a thin border around my videos. Be it 1080 or 720. I often use Quicktime player to export to reduce file size, but don't think that's the reason. Any obvious ideas why it's happening? It never used to, it's a new thing. Could it be something to do with not pre-comping? Cheers

[@VideoRevealed]

If uploading the file directly from Premiere Pro doesn't create the border, then I'd say QuickTime Player is doing something to create that problem. There really is no reason to compress twice, all the same compression properties that you're using in QuickTime Player are in Premiere Pro and Media Encoder.

[@TradesDigital]

Thanks Colin. Soon as I find the culprit I'll let you know. Good tip about not needing to compress twice.

[@yans474]

Thanks for the video. I want to make a 1080 full HD video from 720p footage. Do i need to resize or "Default Scale to Frame Size" all footage or i should make 720 sequence and render to 1080p or i should make a 1080p sequence instead? Glad if u reply this. :D

[@VideoRevealed]

+yans474 - All your suggestions would result in the same output, which is scaling the video 150%. The easiest is to output to 1080p from the original media size of 720p, but scaling that much will definitely make the video a little soft. You may get better results by putting the 720p Sequence into a 1080 Sequence and applying some sharpening. Have a look for my tutorial on sharpening and thanks for the support.

[@CamillaJohannesen]

@@VideoRevealed This was really helpful now! I just got back from a trip, and see that in one of the my important days filming, I filmed literally everything in 720, 59fps... Talking, etc. But I want to have it into a 1080 sequence. Do I lose a lot of quality? I see that all my clips have to be scaled to 150%. I will check out your sharpening tutorial now. Also, quick question! What is the lowest you would slow down 59fps clip to? Thanks for all your great videos!

Wow man, Thank you so much, I was thinking about the difference I've always used the scale to frame size and I noticed it was always getting a lower resolution so I thought maybe the SET TO FRAME SIZE would do it but I wasn't sure and then I found your video and that's it! I appreciate! thank you

[@VideoRevealed]

Glad you liked it. Stay tuned for an update to this tutorial on Aug. 13th. It's called, "Fill a frame with NO EDGES in Adobe Premiere Pro". It explores some new Preference settings.

[@CoreyLively1]

I need to drop in literally hundreds of photos with tons of varying sizes and aspect ratios. Is there a way to have an effect similar to InDesign's "Fill Frame Proportionally" tool?

[@VideoRevealed]

Unfortunately Premiere Pro does not have the same InDesign feature.

Thank for the explanation! If I scaled a photo to frame size, (and want to zoom in) can i go back and set to frame size, or will all those pixels be lost at that point and I would have to import it again. Thanks again! Jake

[@VideoRevealed]

You don't have to re-import. The Scale to Frame Size setting can simply be toggled on and off; just Right-click on the clip in the Timeline and look for the checkmark for that setting. Turn the checkmark off, and you're back to no scale settings!

[@AlejandroDiez]

[@samlamberts2036]

What can it be that all of my footage need to be scaled up, it always too small at 100 and I need to double it to fit in the frame.... and I actually loose a little on the sides when I do so

[@VideoRevealed]

It's because the Sequence size is not the exact same match in aspect ratio as the clip size. You just need to scale it up a bit.

[@samlamberts2036]

Ok, I was just a bit afraid of loosing quality, but I guess it won't. Thank you for answer :)

[@MichaelnMaximo]

So from Standard def to HD, I'd used scale to frame size? (Understand that it's a poor choice to go to HD from SD)

[@VideoRevealed]

Sure, it's fine to use it for that operation.

[@zippydebrain]

So adobe doesn't have an option to fill the screen with the image (with a pan option to get the best part of the image?) I am confused. The select option you have here (with the blue selection) looks like exactly what I need but it doesn't ever show up for me.

[@VideoRevealed]

Premiere Pro does not "fill the screen" when scaling. It will always stop when one of the dimensions fits the Sequence size. This tutorial might help: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qoqwoGx3rJiobdU You may need to update to the latest version of Premiere Pro to see all the options.

[@Pratheeshkutty]

Thank u for this video.....In your experience Which is best video editing software Avid,Fcp or Pro???

[@VideoRevealed]

I think what's important to understand is that no matter what editing software you use, you're also going to use other Adobe applications and no other software integrates with Adobe programs like Premiere Pro. FCP and Avid can't give you that kind of integration (ie: Dynamic Link, Photoshop layers, Audition, etc.). If you've never used Avid, it's very different and a huge learning curve. The only people that use Avid are either long time users or editors that have to share projects via Avid's media management systems. FCP 7 is dead in the water. FCP X is useful for someone transitioning from iMove but again, it's not going to integrate like Premiere Pro. Plus, there are many specific things that FCP X does away with, like the idea of tracks and many film and broadcast editors need tracks in their workflow.

[@cougar7375]

my preview video has a big black box surrounding the outer edges and it comes out blurry

[@VideoRevealed]

The scaling options do not take into account different pixel aspect ratios so you may need to manually adjust the scale property. If you're seeing blurry video, it's because you have both reducing the size of a video then resizing it up. These features are not meant to give you automatic control, it assumes you know the scale of the Timeline, the clip and the export. Have you tried just dropping in a clip and manually scaling it then exporting it? Is your export a larger frame size because that will cause scaling issues.

[@cougar7375]

I think it had to do with the sequence I chose, which was a completely random one cuz I just opened the program to mess around. After creating a new project, and thus a new sequence, I imported another 720p video clip. It then asks to resize automatically to which I agree. It seems to have worked, getting rid of the edges. Is this a viable method of scaling?

[@VideoRevealed]

The scaling that happens is not different or better than the Effects Control Panel. It's much better to have a clear understanding of what your export is first, then create a Sequence that size, then import your clips. But...if you primarily use 720p clips, then you should be creating a Timeline that size. Watch this tutorial: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p4TWi3lti8SdsK8

[@cougar7375]

Thank you for helping me get over the steep learning curve of this complex program

[@ambiguity22]

What about going the other direction? I have 80% 4k 29.97 clips, and 20% 1080p - 59.97 clips (shot so I could slow them down). I want to output the 4k for posterity, so my sequence is a 4k resolution... For those 1080 clips, should I be "setting to frame size" or "scaling to frame size"?

[@VideoRevealed]

Hmm, nothing is really going to help upscaling the HD to 4k, but I would use Set To Frame Size. You may want to try using After Effects to upscale using the Effect "Detail-preserving Upscale". It's not magic but it's the best upscale algorithm from Adobe.

[@CTSCAPER]

I looked this up this morning because I was using a lot of still images. It seems like the secret is to do the opposite. For still images that will pan and zoom go with SET to frame size. If you just want it to fit SCALE to frame size. I need to figure out a way to remember that with word play. Scale once, set always?

[@VideoRevealed]

Yep, Set for pan and scan is best. And honestly, I never use Scale, I always do it manually.

[@rickaroo702]

I have CS5.5 for PC. I don't see an option for set to frame size. Is this a new addition to Premier Pro CC only?

[@VideoRevealed]

Correct. You need to update to the latest version.

[@AlexandraBelloTV]

But which one is better when working with 4K and HD footage. I don't wanna pixelate my HD footage so I ended up setting the timeline to HD and importing the 4K files, I just wanna make sure I keep them as high res as possible, even when downscale them. Am I in the right track?

[@VideoRevealed]

When reducing the frame size, both work the exact same. It's only a problem when scaling up after using Scale to Frame Size.

Colin, I need your help. I have a 1080p timeline with a mixture of 1080p and 4K footage. I am using proxies for the 4K footage but my footage has them condensed in matte tracks aand split screens and such. The problem is, when I replace my footage with the high quality 4K files, it's going to mess up my compositions and framing ): I am a bit scared, is there anything I can do replace the proxies with my high quality files but not mess up my timeline? Please help ):

[@VideoRevealed]

Switching between Proxies and original media does not change scale properties so you should be fine as long as you used Premiere Pro to create and manage the Proxies.

[@bluefilmsltd]

I used Adobe Encoder, an older version. I guess theres only one way to find out ): Thanks for the prompt response! @@VideoRevealed

[@AppleExpeditionProductions]

Is there a quality setting for scaling up like the one in Edius - bicubic or Lanczos 3(hi-quality), bilinear( fast & sharp)? I can't find it in premiere pro.

[@VideoRevealed]

The scaling is always at the highest quality, there are no options for changing that.

[@justinhowe662]

Hey there, do you know of any way to batch apply a specific scaling effect to clips in your project panel? I was able to save a preset with the scaling change applied, but Premiere doesn't support applying 'intrinsic effects (motion, opacity, speed)' to master clips and so I wasn't able to drag the preset onto the clip. Just wondeirng if you or anyone happened to know a work around, opposed to applying these changes every time you drag UHD footage into a 2K timeline for example. Many thanks! ( helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/using/master-clip-effects.html for reference)

[@VideoRevealed]

Unfortunately, there is no way to do what you want using Master Clip Effects (as you've already found out). The only option is to drag the clips into the Timeline then drag a preset to those clips or use an Adjustment Layer.

[@sarahc-l9195]

When I right click on the clip, it only has scale to frame size. Where would I find set to frame size (that is the one that doesnt pixelate it right?) The clip I imported was a video I had made, but it is 1.87 gb so it shouldnt lose too much quality right? For some reason when I brought it in it was tiny in the frame. I am moving over from fcp to premiere, and never had this in fcp! If you could help I would be very grateful. Thanks!

[@sarahc-l9195]

I think I'm dealing with the most recent version which doesnt seem to have set to frame size...

[@VideoRevealed]

If you have CS6 or earlier versions of Creative Cloud, it won't be there. Please update to CC 2017.

[@VideoRevealed]

If you hover over the video in the Project Bin, a tooltip will pop up with the frame size. You can also Right-click and check properties. If the frame size is very small, then scaling it up by any means will pixelate it. The file size isn't always an indication of frame size; it could be a very long duration and very small frame size and poor compression and it would still be a large file size.

[@sarahc-l9195]

Thank you! It was very pixellated and your comment made me realise how small the file actually was! I had accidentally exported it 720*575 so importing it back in was not good. Thanks again :)

[@eceera]

Can you please help me?? I have 4K footages. I have to somewhat crop few of them (I'm editing a short film) for aesthetics but I don't want any loss of resolution! Should I edit in 4k (My computer can handle it) and then export it to 1920x1080, or should I set my timeline to 1920x1080 and put the 4k footages there, and finally export at 1920x1080... Which would give me the best result?

[@VideoRevealed]

The quality of editing 4k in a 1080p Timeline vs editing in 4k and exporting to 1080p are exactly the same. If you're planning on panning and scanning the 4k, then do that in a 1080p Timeline.

[@eceera]

Thank you! There's one problem though... What about color grading? I have to send the film to a colorist. Should I export in 4k and should I then crop the mp4 file he sends me after the color correction?

[@eceera]

Assuming 1080 color grading is worse than 4k color grading

[@VideoRevealed]

The colorist should be grading the original media. The typical workflow is for you to send the final edit as an EDL or XML along with the original media. They grade that and output the final film or give you graded media, which you'd have to manually relink in Premiere Pro.

[@eceera]

Interesting... He told me since I didnt shoot RAW , (I shot H.264) that I don't need to give him original media files. He said an exported mp4 file would work. Is that false?

[@roebucksadventure]

I have a question with Pr Pro CC 2018. I have clips 1080P @ 29.97 from my canon G7X. I put them on my timeline first to start editing process, then I add different clips from my goPro Hero 6 @ 2.7K @ 30 and @60 on the timeline. All looks OK as I'm editing, and when I render to put on KZbin I will render at 1080P 29.97. Should I do set anything on PrPro while I'm editing the timeline before I render. Also, the 60fps clips...I'm setting the speed to 50% for slow motion video. Will there be any issues with this workflow?

[@VideoRevealed]

Premiere Pro takes care of mixed frame rates no problem. For the slow motion clip, you might want to Right-click on the clip in the Project bin and choose Modify> Interpret Footage. If the original was 60 fps and you change it to 30 fps, you'll get the best quality. When you drop it in the Timeline, it will be twice as long because it's half the speed.

[@MaraxYTube]

hahah i feel so dumb , thank you !! you are the real MVP , i was upscaling 1080 to 1440p and all the time manually resizing to fit black bar that is left

[@VideoRevealed]

Check your Sequence Settings because the frame size should match your media and you should never have to resize anything. Watch this tutorial to make Sequences match your media: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p4TWi3lti8SdsK8

[@collinalpert701]

How can I resize a clip to a specific dimension? So instead of a "1920 x 1080" dimension I get a "1500 x 1500" dimension?

[@VideoRevealed]

Turn off Uniform Scale in Motion settings in the Effects Control Panel. Then change the Scale so the Height is 139.1 and the Width is 78.1. Just to be clear, a clip with these dimensions will not fit within an HD frame.

[@collinalpert701]

VideoRevealed thank you for your response! The scale option only works in percent. Is there a way to change this?

[@VideoRevealed]

No, because the scale property is scale and you're asking for a dimension property. The dimension property only comes up with "synthetic" assets like a Color Matte. You're going to have to do the math like I did.

[@menkyitenzin1285]

Very informative video. i got what i was looking for. thank you. i have a question. why does my video quality degrades after editing in premier pro cs6. i did render, export, color correction almost everything but the result is very bad. Please help.

[@VideoRevealed]

You're most likely exporting to a lower quality format than the original media. It's been so many years since CS6 so I can't remember but if you see any presets, then pick the best quality. If you're going out to KZbin, pick KZbin 1080p HD.

[@elid377]

hey Colin so is setting it to frame size keeps more quality?

[@VideoRevealed]

It's not really about quality, it's more about making changes after you apply that setting. Like I said about ABC, use Scale to Framesize only if you need to manage the resources (putting a larger frame into a smaller sequence so it's easier to playback). Otherwise, just use Set to Framesize as a quick way to change the Scale property in the Effects Control Panel.

[@elid377]

+VideoRevealed got it bro. Thx

[@juliebungei4674]

For some weird reason, my set to frame size and set to frame size on premiere pro are not working. I'm not able to therefore readjust my clips. Please help.

[@VideoRevealed]

First of all, you can always adjust the scale of any clip in the Effects Control Panel under the Motion settings. The Set To Frame Size is just a convenient way to adjust the scale of the clip automatically, so it fits in the frame. If your clip is larger than the frame, it will do the same thing as manually adjusting it in the Effects Control Panel. Now if both of these commands are missing from your version of Premiere Pro, then you may be running a very old version and you should update to the latest version. If the commands are available but don't change the scale of the clip, then the clip may already be small enough to fit in the frame. I'm just guessing here as I don't have enough information from you yet.

[@juliebungei4674]

Thank you, the commands are available but don't change the scale of the clip. I guess I will just do it manually.

[@kpivideo]

Do you need to set the sequence to frame size, or will it do it automatically when you add the first media clip to the sequence?

The 2017 spring update has changed the place where Scale To Frame Size can be found. It's also important to note that you can now set the Set to Fame Size as a default . Here's a screenshot: imgur.com/a/voJt4

[@NYNorskYoutube]

VideoRevealed perfect. So footage will be set to frame size automatically

[@VideoRevealed]

Yes, that's in the new update; if you have it checked, your footage will scale automatically.

[@tayyabkhan7]

Hi sir your content is really very informative and professional. i really like and apply these techniques in my work. i want to request to make video on how to edit different frame rates in 1 sequence. i will be really gratefull to you. God bless you sir.

[@MeAndMyOpinions_OverYours]

Ops. No wonder. I have pictures 6000x4000. And I created a timeline that set the settings to that. I was lost when I changed the sequence to 720 or 1080p. It was mad zoomed in. But in a 720 it still doesnt fit right.

[@VideoRevealed]

6000 X 4000 is a 3:2 aspect ratio so it will never fit into a 16:9 Project evenly. You have to scale the images manually to fit them.

[@mattmicallef9930]

sometimes when i put my videos into adobe premiere and start to edit them it zooms in on my clips and i have to scale them out to get the full size image/video. why is this? and scaling it out, does that ruin the quality? thx in advance !:)

[@VideoRevealed]

You are most likely creating a Sequence that is a smaller frame size than the video. If you Righ-click on a video and choose Create Sequence from Video, you'll always make it the correct size. See this tutorial: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p4TWi3lti8SdsK8

[@thisismadnessss]

Great video, thanks for the advice! Just what I was looking for.

[@VideoRevealed]

+Alexander Whitcombe - That's great!

[@bluefilmsltd]

I don't have the option of 'Set To Frame Size' :(

[@VideoRevealed]

Time to upgrade.

[@adeltahmid_]

your videos are so helpful

[@VideoRevealed]

Glad you think so!

[@mattc5937]

Thanks for the video. Adobe named the set and scale options backwards in my opinion. If I want to scale my 4K footage down to my 720 timeline, and leave it so as 4K footage so that it can be zoomed in slightly without digitizing, you'd think I should choose "Scale to frame size" , since I am wanting to "scale" my footage down. Nope, instead Adobe has labeled this "set to frame size". Very confusing.

[@VideoRevealed]

Okay.

[@Puttugamer]

Sir I'm finding an issue while exporting a video, and that is not showing in full frame... why black bar is adding by default while I'm exporting any video in premier pro cc..... please help me sir

[@VideoRevealed]

That is caused by the Sequence settings being different from the export settings. If the frame size is different, then you'll get black bars. They should match. Also, if the black bars are only showing up when playing back in a browser, that maybe because you're not exporting at 16X9 aspect ratio and the browser player only plays 16X9 so it adds black bars.

[@Puttugamer]

thanks for ur rply sir, but how can i resolve it, please tell me.... please

[@VideoRevealed]

Pick Sequence settings that are 16X9 like DSLR 1080p. Place your clips in the Timeline and make sure they fill the frame. Export to 16X9 formats like KZbin1080p and it will work perfectly.

[@Puttugamer]

Thank you very much sir, ty ty ty... Support from india.... Keep ur work on... u will definitely grow one day... Love u sir

[@PokerDudeOnTube]

Its auto scale to frame size but no auto set to frame size... I work a lot in 6K to HD... Wish there was... ??? Is it?

[@VideoRevealed]

There isn't. But you can make a Scale property preset, select everything in the Timeline, then drop it on and you've got the same thing.

[@PokerDudeOnTube]

VideoRevealed thats true, but sometimes I have from 5-8 K footage ... Do you know a way to put a look/colorspace in the raw for RED clips, many at one time...

[@wrytangle]

You can create a Preset Look in Lumetri and then save that as a preset. If you then select a bunch of clips in a bin and drag-and-drop the preset onto them it gets applied as a Master Clip effect to all of them.

[@VideoRevealed]

Yes, watch my tutorial on Master Clip Effects. kzbin.info/www/bejne/injScqafe8yrkMU

[@Marta_z_Dabrowy]

Great explanation. It is very useful - thanks!

[@VideoRevealed]

[@inesbasta]

Please help me. I am fully new with editing video in Premiere. I do set to frame size and quality becomes very bad - pixelized.... And I actually making video smaller :( :( So It has 1920 x 1080 (some kind of intro) and I want to push it as intro next to movie which is 640 x 360....

[@VideoRevealed]

It's always best to create the Sequence the same as your footage, then export something smaller. Make sure your Sequence Settings show the same frame size as your footage.

[@1000rami1000]

Dropping a clip with dimensions higher than the sequence dimensions = use scale to frame size Dropping a clip with dimensions smaller than the sequence dimensions = use set to frame size True or the other way around?

[@VideoRevealed]

The change in scale is identical with both operations: the clip will scale (up or down) until one of the dimensions fits within the current Sequence frame size. The difference is how the clip is "processed", with Scale to Frame Size not changing the scale property, instead it's as if the clip was rasterized to the new frame size. So a 4k clip in an HD Sequence takes the same resources as an HD clip but scaling it higher will reduce quality. Set to Frame Size simple changes the Scale property.

[@nimmasoda]

Thank you so much... Today i am editing my first ever video on pro and this problem haunting me... You solved just like that...

[@VideoRevealed]

That's great! I'm happy to help.

How do you do this in vesion 2022?

[@VideoRevealed]

It's the same.

[@nikhilkulkarni9091]

Ohoo great!! it was really helpful

[@VideoRevealed]

Thanks.

[@ابوعرب-ج9ت6غ]

Does not work (scale to frame size) as the cause of this problem

[@VideoRevealed]

Can you give me more information? What are you expecting to happen and what happens instead?

[@ابوعرب-ج9ت6غ]

Thank you ... Nothing happens when I give it

[@VideoRevealed]

Are the boundaries of the video clip the same as the Sequence? You'll only see a change if the clips size if considerably different from the Sequence, like dropping in a 4k clip into an HD Sequence.

[@VideoRevealed]

What is your Sequence size? What is your video clip size?

[@ابوعرب-ج9ت6غ]

I thank my teacher I am working on three cameras so I need to divide the Premier screen into three sections and then the screen returns to normal size

[@NYNorskYoutube]

Is there an AUTO SET TO FRAME SIZE??????

[@mellowecho]

mines is already pixelated and its on 1080p

[@mellowecho]

[@VideoRevealed]

That happens when you have media scaled beyond the original size.

[@VideoRevealed]

Okay.
