if my video was square, this would have done it ... but since its rectangular, the video is rotated but the frame is not, therefore my rectangular video is now square and I am loosing a lot ... how do I prevent this, how do I get the entire video to rotate 90degrees and not just the video within the rectangle.

I later found the aspect ratio changer on top of screen and that fixed the above problem ... but now all I get is a very small video ... wondering why ... I didn't change the size, only rotated it ... why is it super small?

Hello,

Sounds like you want your video to have a 9:16 aspect ratio? Just change your project aspect ratio.

Please also tell us which version of PDR you are using and also attach a screenshot if possible.

I changed the aspect ratio but now I have a size issue .... it hardly fills the screen.

Right. Now you need to use the PiP Designer to set the scale to a bigger size. If you haven't made any edits to the clip, simply delete it from the timeline and drag a new copy there so it will have the new aspect ratio from the start
