Make 16:9 Widescreen Video for Youtube

Make Normal 16:9 Widescreen Video for Youtube

YouTube, after years of complaints over the size of its video player, has   changed to wider size since Nov, 2008. And then did you find more complaints   about the black bars around your video? Do you know the proper settings to get perfect 16:9 widescreen video for Youtube? Read on this article   and you will get all answers to receive better video viewing experience on   Youtube.

The Letterbox Bar and Pillarbox Bar

widescreen

As you could see in the above figure, the black bars around the video   (windowboxing) ruin the view experience completely. This is probably because   letterboxing is added to create 4:3 video from 16:9, meanwhile, pillarboxing is   also added by the widescreen player. So you are recommended to upload original 16:9 video to Youtube.

In DVD Slideshow Builder, you   could easily get blackbar-free Youtube video by project settings (through   Settings button on top) and settings in the Video Advanced Settings dialog,   shown as below. Before saving video, make sure you have set the Resolution to   16:9 aspect ratio. Generally, 1280x720 is recommended. However, for a smaller   size of video, you could use other resolutions. To decide the resolution, just   divide width by the height, if the result equals to 1.777777,   that is 16:9 widescreen video, which could be played perfectly   on Youtube.

dvd slideshow

Note that if your media sources are in 16:9 aspect ratio, everything is   perfect to make widescreen youtube video, but if mismatch ratio happens,   adjustments are required. In such cases, either cut or stretch media to keep the   specified aspect ratio. Otherwise, keep the mismatch aspect ratio and black bar   is unavoidable.

 Here is the 16:9 widescreen video on Youtube (High Quality) created with Wondershare DVD Slideshow Builder.

           

Youtube Video Tips: 1. Add &fmt=22 to youtube video URL   for a larger player size. For example, to directly watch above 16:9 widescreen   video in the wider youtube player, visit youtube video address like this: http://www.youtube.com/v/HD_PZjEh32Y&fmt=22.

Make HD 16:9 Widescreen Video for Youtube

The newly released DVD Slideshow   Builder allows you to create high-definition video for   Youtube in the following formats. All is supported by Youtube and you   can also select desired resolution (1280x720 - 16:9 HD is recommended). To make   proper settings for HD Youtube widescreen video, click Settings   button after selecting output formats and specify right encorder, resolutions,   frame rate and bit rate. After created, simply upload videos to Youtube, and   they will fill the player entirely.

HD H.264 Video (*.mp4, *.mov)
  HD MPEG-4 Video (*.mp4)
  HD   MPEG-2 Video (*.mpg)
  HD ASF Video (*.asf)
  HD AVI Video (*.avi)
  HD WMV   Video (*.wmv)

Note: Due to the high quality, HD 16:9 widescreen Youtube videos require   faster internet connection speed.

Change Pillarbox Youtube Video to 16:9

You may have shared many normal aspect ratio video before youtube changes it   player to larger size. If so, you could edit video info and add yt:stretch=16:9 to the Tag textbox. Another useful youtube   video tricks are yt:stretch=4:3, yt:crop=4:3, yt:crop=16:9. Use yt:crop=16:9 to crop out letterbox and pillarbox bars. Stretch   youtube video to 16:9 widescreen video now to full fill youtube video player.   But note that your video may be short, squat and a bit of chubby looking.

youtube video

Conclusion

To best upload widescreen video to youtube, make sure you are using the   original videos without re-sampling and directly create 16:9 video to upload   onto Youtube. Download DVD   Slideshow Builder Trial Version to make either normal 16:9 video or High Definition   widescreen video perfectly compatible with Youtube widescreen player. You could   also stretch existed 4:3 youtube video to fill player entirely. By the way, if   you download youtube video not in widescreen, use DVD Slideshow   Builder to convert to 16:9 and upload to youtube again.

It is really easy to do the Halloween family homemade decoration and it won’t cost much.
