i make a lot of videos with my smartphone and sometimes a few of them are saved in 9:16

when i see them in the windows file explorer, it sais 1920x1080, but show vertical in the thumbnails. when i open them in vlc player they are played horizontal perfectly, without the need of rotating, and at the same quality as the 16:9 ones. when i open them in windows media player they play vertical and like stretched

when i add them to PD13, they show as 1080x1920. i add those to a project with other in 1920x1080. when i go to modify in the 9:16 clip, i can rotate it, but i dont see them exceding the 16:9 zone as they should, they are fitted like in 5:9, so when i rotate them i have to make zoom to fill the 16:9 zone, and then i lose a lot of quality comparing to the others. in vlc they all play exactly with the same quality, so something bad es happening that shouldnt

is there any way to solve this? many thanks

Is your TV sitting vertical? Why are you filming like that?
Also, in other players it is happening exactly the same thing, the difference is that you can re-size a software window to match the source, but you cannot re-size your TV screen in the same way.

i am not filming like that, but sometimes, maybe for starting it with the quick launch button or something, put 1 time of 15, it puts it vertical

but the thing is vlc plays it horizontal like the other ones, is just when i insert in a 16:9 project of the PD13, it stretches to fit vertical to 16:9, and when i rotate and zoom to fill, it loses quality

i play in a horizontal monitor

No, it doesn't. It either zooms out and crops the edges or fits the frame around with black bars...
No physical way to do it otherwise, can't get a square peg in a round hole.

Take a screen shot and post it here.

it justs autorotate somehow the 9:16 into 16:9, i think you are not understanding me cause it is a simple rotation

the problem is that when i add the 9:16 clip to a 16:9 project, it fits like a 5:9 (whatever it is the relation with 9 vertical) in the 16:9 space, where it should surpass the height limits up and down, so when i just rotate it would fit perfectly, without the need of zooming in and losing quality to get to the starting point

pd13.1.jpg is when i add the clip, pd13.2.jpg is when i rotate it, pd13.3.jpg is when i have to make zoom and lose quality to get a simple rotation of a 9:16 clip

OK, I guess I didn't understand what you wanted to do. Like just a plain rotation...
