HI. I'm stumped and need help. I'm trying to set up an mp4 file, standard 2D at size at least 820x312 or close pixels to be used as a cover video for a FaceBook page (Face Book size requirement).

Using H.264 for production I can produce at 1280x720 px or 1920x1080 px both of which are to large for the visible area I am using or 640x480 which FaceBook will not upload, to small.

No luck trying as a WMV file either.

I did not see anything in the community forum addressing this.

What I want to do is reduce the pixel size of the video to something closer to 820x312px without cropping.

Any idea how to do this?

I am open to all suggestions as being new to PD15 & video editing

Jim

P.S. I also looked into adding a new profile but you cannot as far as I can see add new pixel size profile

Hi Jim -

This has been raised before, but without resolution I'm afraid.
