This can be due to an incorrect aspect ratio that makes a video appear compressed or elongated. A stretched video can ruin your viewing experience if not fixed.<\/p><p>Fortunately, there are ways to adjust the aspect ratio of the stretched videos. This blog will first explain what aspect ratio is and how adjusting it can fix stretched videos. Let&rsquo;s dive in!<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"understanding-aspect-ratio\"><strong>Understanding Aspect Ratio<\/strong><\/h2><p>Before we start the methods to fix stretched video, let&rsquo;s first understand what aspect ratio is. The aspect ratio is the proportion between the video&rsquo;s width and the video frame&rsquo;s height. This ratio describes the width of your video, expressed as width: height, such as 9:16 or 4:3. Some of the common aspect ratios of videos are:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>16:9 (widescreen)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>9:16 (vertical)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1:1 (square)<\/li>\n<\/ul><p>When a video is stretched, it simply means that the aspect ratio of the video has been altered, causing it to lose its original proportion. You need to adjust the aspect ratio to fix the stretched video.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-fix-stretched-video?\"><strong>How to Fix Stretched Video?<\/strong><\/h2><p>There are various ways to fix stretched videos, including using a video player, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stellarinfo.com\/video-editor.php\">video editor software<\/a>, online aspect ratio corrector tools, and video converter software. Let&rsquo;s see how each tool can help adjust the aspect ratio to fix stretched videos.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-use-a-video-player-to-adjust-the-aspect-ratio\"><strong>1. Use a Video Player to Adjust the Aspect Ratio<\/strong><\/h3><p>Many popular video players like VLC Media Player offer the option to adjust the aspect ratio to fix stretched videos. However, this will temporarily fix your stretched video to play in the VLC player at any desired aspect ratio. Here&rsquo;s how to use VLC Player to change the aspect ratio of stretched video:<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open your stretched video in VLC Media Player.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Go to <strong>Tools<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Preferences<\/strong> in Windows; on Mac, go to<strong> VLC<\/strong> <strong>Media<\/strong> <strong>Player<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Preferences<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"574\" height=\"322\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stellarinfo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/8-prefernces.jpg\" alt=\"go to Preferences\" class=\"wp-image-140815 apply-gradient-on-post-images\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stellarinfo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/8-prefernces.jpg 574w, https:\/\/www.stellarinfo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/8-prefernces-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.stellarinfo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/8-prefernces-150x84.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 574px) 100vw, 574px\" \/><\/figure><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Click on <strong>Video<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Next, enter any value (like 16:10) in the <strong>Force Aspect Ratio<\/strong> box.
