Complete Guide to Change Video Resolution in Filmora

With the vast number of devices available in the market today, storing data and video files has become difficult. Frequently in cases where the devices share different forms of resolution, it makes sharing videos a hassle.

In those situations, changing the resolution of your video can be a great idea. It will also allow you to save storage. In this article, you’ll adjust the resolution in just a few clicks by Wondershare Filmora. But before we learn how to change a video’s resolution, let’s look into what a video resolution is!

Part 1. What Is a Video Resolution?

A video resolution, in short, is the quality of the video visible. A video is rendered at a specific rate whenever you watch a movie or go to a cinema. A screen is made up of tiny pixels and arranged in an order that determines the resolution of a screen.

Video resolution is rendered in a vertical and horizontal orientation. Therefore, whenever you play a video on YouTube, the resolution scale is available for you to choose from, i.e., 480p, 720p, 1080p, etc.

In most cases, a resolution is dictated by the full abbreviation. So, for example, a 720p video is 1280 x 720, and a 1080p video is a 1920 x 1080 resolution.

Note: The number written before is the number of horizontal pixels in a video. And the number written after is the vertical pixels in a video.

Before we adjust the resolution of a video, let’s look at a comparison between different types of video resolution.

Part 2. 7 Different Types of Video Resolution

It has been established that a video resolution is not a constant number and changes according to the screen. Scroll below to look at the different forms of video resolutions available!

360p

The full resolution is 480 x 360. This resolution is a minimal video resolution. On a big screen, 360p will look blurry. That is why a 360p resolution is the best for smaller devices such as Mobile phones.

480p

The full resolution is 853 x 480. Although an upgrade from the latter, this resolution is available on many devices. It’s mainly used in devices such as smaller TVs, laptops, and Desktop computers. It is also available for Burn-in DVDs.

720p

The full version of the resolution is 1280 x 720. This resolution is called HD, short for High Definition. 720p quality looks good almost on every device and is also reasonably available.

Most modern devices, such as Mobile phones, Touch Tablets, Laptops, and PCs, are calibrated in 720p Resolution.

1080p

The resolution in its complete form is 1920 x 1080. This resolution is also known as FHD, short for Full High Definition. 1080p resolution is the quality in which many high-quality devices are constructed. As a result, the screens of these devices have a clear and clean display.

Note: It is usually recommended to share videos on social media in 1080p resolution.

What is the difference between the TS file format and MP4? Allow us to tell you some. You might have read about both formats, but a few differences are discussed as follows:

TS

TS format is used in DVD and Blu-ray discs that you have on your respective device. It does the same work as MP4, but the TS file breaks the data into tiny chinks. TS format comprises a few elements, making it a faster transporter for MPEG-2 format compressed video data. It is used widely in broadcasting and streaming.

MP4

MP4 is considered more compatible as compared to TS format, as not all the software allows the ‘.ts’ extension. If the file is not transmitted properly or is not closed properly, it can lose the data it has. MP4 is divided into two parts, one has the media data, and the other has metadata. Due to compression differences in both formats, it has a smaller size than the TS format.
