Can VEGAS reformat all clips from portrait to landscape

AaronL wrote on 5/1/2023, 2:32 PM

I imported a large number of clips into Vegas and adjusted them all into portrait mode because that is what the final render needed to be (1080x 1920) now I realize that I want to use this as the starting point for a project that will be 1920x1080 - do I have to change each clip one at a time (tedious) or is there a way to batch edit all of them in one go?

I am using vegas pro 19

Have you tried reformatting one clip, then copy it, select all the rest and then paste attributes?

???????
Maybe better to use therefore a project 1080x1920 (portraitmode) and render it to the same 1080x1920(portraitmode)

Good suggestion. I suppose one could nest the first project into the second to avoid rendering the clips twice?

thanks for the first suggestion 3d87c4 I will try that.

 

j-v = I think you misunderstood, I made a 1 min project that is 1080 x1920, now I have to make a 5 min project that is 1920x 1080 but out of that 5 min, 1 min is the same as the first project so I hope I dont have to start from scratch to tweak each clip one at time - I will try

You would take into consideration:

The original project was made for YT shorts - but Now I need to expand to a full YT video. All of the original footage is 1920 X1080 - so I want to go back to not cropped, as I had to crop when making the YT short

@AaronL Do you have the orig portrait project & all the orig 1920x1080 media files?

If so set your project back to 1920 x 1080, go to Pan/Crop right click Restore so it fills the preview window,

Right click on that event on the timeline - Copy then Select All events on the timeline, right click & Selectively Paste event attributes, choose Video Event pan/crop settings
