Batch Video Resolution Planner

Enter one source size and get crop or padding instructions for seven common YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok canvases. No video upload is required.

Calculations use an even-pixel scaled size for encoder compatibility. Crop values assume a centred frame; reposition the crop when the subject is off-centre.

How the planner calculates each output

Crop to fill scales the source until the complete target canvas is covered, then reports the pixels outside the target. Fit with padding scales the complete source inside the target, then reports the remaining space. The tool does not alter or upload media.

Frequently asked questions

Should I crop or add padding when changing a video aspect ratio?

Crop to fill when the important subject remains inside the new frame. Fit with padding when every part of the source must remain visible. Review each result because automatic centre cropping can remove faces, captions, or products near an edge.

Does this planner upload my video?

No. It only uses the width and height you enter. All calculations run in your browser and no media file is requested or uploaded.

Are these dimensions guaranteed upload requirements?

No. They are practical planning canvases for common aspect ratios, not a guarantee of platform acceptance. Platform specifications and interface safe zones can change, so confirm current requirements before a final paid campaign or important publication.
