How to Convert Vertical Video to Horizontal

Converting vertical (9:16) video to horizontal (16:9) format is commonly needed when you have phone-recorded footage that needs to be used in a widescreen context. Whether it's a YouTube video, a PowerPoint presentation, a website background, or a digital signage display, horizontal format is the standard for most non-mobile screens.

AspectFlip's vertical to horizontal converter intelligently scales the video and adds a black background, preserving all your content without any cropping while the background fills the empty space cleanly.
