Youtube has altered the player settings to a 2:1 aspect ratio which means in the larger players you will see black bars either side.
Here's an article on this format:

This vid explains how you can fill the larger player when you render in Sony Vegas and maintain the HD settings and the difference between simply stretching a vid and cropping to fit.

1280x720 becomes 1280x640
1440x1080 becomes 1440x720
1920x1080 becomes 1920x960

  • Nice work Rich! Does this still stand up today. Also, is this better than putting the 'stretch and crop' codes, you can put under Tags in editing, that YouTube offers? I use Pinnacle software - boy do I wish you could make a tutorial on this using it.

  • Excellent video tutorial!!! I love it, Thx man

  • hey rich you know when you had those effects and u kicked ur pug and broke the fence how do you do that but he is still in the video like a super kick

  • Are you some kind of computer genius?? cause I think you are...
