how do I remove black bars from my video ?

[Lester23]

hello guys recently I just started recording with the new ReLive from AMD. My issue is after I record, there are black bars everywhere. Is there any possibility to get rid of them ?

I have 1280x1024 monitor. Any help, please ?

Check the resolution of the recordings. 1280x1024 is not a widescreen (16:9) format, but the older "TV" (5:4) format. So, for example, if the recording is using 720p (1280x720) resolution, you'll end up with black bars at the top & bottom of your screen.

It could also be that for playback it's not "stretching" the videos. For example, if your recording was set to 960x540 resolution (still a 16:9 ratio, but not a common resolution), & your monitor is displaying it in a "windowed" view (i.e. your monitor is still displaying at 1280x1024 resolution, which is larger than the video resolution), you'll end up with black bars on all 4 sides.

Unfortunately, ReLive is fairly new, & I haven't tried it myself, so I don't know for sure if there are particular settings you need to watch out for.

I fixed the problem, just set the 'Recording Resolution' to ''In Game'' and everything it's alright but unfortunately the recorded videos cannot be uploaded on Youtube, even it's MP4 format any reason why

Good question. What error message do you get from YouTube when trying to upload it?

It says the file type is wrong. I clicked on proprieties and it's MP4 for sure. I need to convert it with another software.
