How To Change Video Resolution
You can change video resolution with video editing software like VideoStudio. Follow along with our tutorial below to learn the easiest way to change video resolution. Video resolution is extremely important to get right when both shooting and editing. Most cameras today record in standard HD (1080p), and some shoot in 4K which is four times as high resolution. When your video has been edited then changing the video resolution will determine the resolution of the file that is outputted. For most cases, a 1080 file will be fine. But if you’re gearing up to display the film on a 4K TV then you may want to consider going a little bigger.

Setting up your video resolution
When editing your video, it is important that you have the correct video resolution set. VideoStudio automatically sets the video resolution based on the first clip you add to your timeline when you start a new project.
