Hi

I have produced some videos from an iPhone in the 9:16 format which play fine on my PC. Howver, as soon as I try and play them on my Smart TV (Sony Bravia) the movoe appears sideways. The picture is perfect but have to tilt my head to the left to view it. Have tried, chaing the clip attributes, made sure I am in 9:16, have tried 4:3 and 16:9 (both stretched).

Am producing the video to a USB stick in MP4 format but nothing I do switches it back to a 9:16 view vertical view. I know that it will be long and thin but its unwatchable as it stands.

Any ideas how to sort this one out.

Thanks

You say you tried saving in 4x3 and 16x9.
If you want to watch 9x16 vertical video on LED TV.
In the edition choose 16x9.
In Production also choose 16x9.
This ensures that the image will remain vertical in the center of the 16x9 screen.
