Custom Mode: Full Control Over Width, Height, and Strategy
Resize Video Custom Mode - EditKits
Need pixel-perfect control? Switch to Custom Mode. Enter any resolution manually and define how your video adapts using Fit or Fill. Fit maintains the video inside the frame with borders. Fill crops the video to match the frame without borders.

Live Output Preview in Real-Time

One of the best features of EditKits is the live preview panel. As you tweak your resolution, aspect ratio, or stretch settings, you’ll immediately see how the final video will look. This makes it easier to get the result you want without trial and error.
Every resizing job is processed in the background. Launch the job and keep working while EditKits renders your video in the cloud.
Use Case Examples
