Hello!

How to convert 4:3 to 16:9 live stream with cut a part of frames from up&down?

I have cameras that could work only in 4:3 format, but i need 16:9.

Transcoder can do this, but in this case i got a flattened live stream.

Hi,

To remove some of the frame from the top and bottom use “Fit Mode: Crop” in the encode for the transcoding template.

You can then set both the Width and Height as required for playback.

(Optional):

Below the Fit Mode options you will see the options for Crop which will allow you to take the required pixels from each edge of the frame.

Regards,

Jason
