    Hi.

    I'm trying to record videos in 3x4 and 1x2 aspects in one go.

    3x4 is fine but 1x2 is uncentered (like 3x4 was cropped on the right)

    Is this intended and can it be bypassed somehow?

    Thanks.

    What is the component or package in question?

    Hi,

    This is a bug, thank you for reporting it.
    It seems that the Recorder changes the aspect ratio for the camera, but in this case there is a conflict because of two requested aspect ratios. We'll see if this can be fixed or if we prevent it from happening with warnings/errors.

    I see 2 options to work around this until it gets fixed:
    * copy your camera so you have two different cameras, one for each aspect ratio
    * make your camera output to a render texture and use shaders to perform cropping with a MonoBehaviour to get your 2 aspect ratios

    Thanks!

    * Different cameras didn't help.
    * Texture cropping will try this week.

    Btw this also happens when game view is selected as a source.

    This is still happening in 2022.2.5f1. Would like to record several aspect ratios at once, but it seems to pick one and make all the timeline Recorders have the same aspect ratio.
