Unstretch the output video

Pearl Mini preserves the aspect ratio of your input video signal by default when you add the source to a layout
using the custom layout editor. If you've changed the default setting, the image is stretched to match the
output frame size.

To prevent the image from looking stretched, you can use the custom layout editor to preserve the video
source's aspect ratio.

Unstretching the image causes a matte (black bars) to appear on the sides or top and bottom of
the output. To remove these see

Remove black bars (matte) from the video
