FAQ: YouTube Video Formats

What is the best YouTube video aspect ratio?

For standard uploads: 16:9 (1920x1080). For Shorts: 9:16 (1080x1920). OmniFit converts to either format instantly without cropping.

Can I convert TikTok videos to YouTube?

Yes. TikTok is 9:16 vertical. Upload to OmniFit, select "YouTube 16:9", and we'll expand the frame to fill widescreen without stretching your content.

Why do my YouTube videos have black bars?

Black bars appear when your video aspect ratio doesn't match 16:9. OmniFit fills them with AI-generated content that matches your scene.

How long does YouTube video conversion take?

3-5 minutes typically. Free 3-second preview to verify quality before processing the full video.
