Original 16:9 for standard destinations
Keep standard destinations such as YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitch, X, and web outputs aligned to the original wide program when that is the right fit.
Vertical Live Workflow
Fit 16:9 video into a 9:16 Instagram canvas
Keep normal destinations on the original wide program while giving Instagram its own vertical canvas treatment.
StreamToWorld lets the same live source serve different destination needs. Standard destinations can receive the original 16:9 output, while the Instagram destination can use a 9:16 canvas with a custom background and adjustable vertical positioning. StreamToWorld focuses on output formatting and presentation control; platform publishing rules remain governed by each destination.
9:16 canvas for Instagram
Prepare the Instagram destination as a vertical canvas instead of forcing every destination into the same output shape.
Custom background and placement
Fit the 16:9 video inside the vertical output with a custom background and controlled top, center, or lower positioning.
Destination-Specific Formatting
One source can have different visual treatments by destination
The workflow is useful because Instagram can receive a vertical-safe treatment while standard destinations continue receiving the original wide live video.
Wide output stays wide
Normal live destinations do not need to inherit the Instagram vertical canvas treatment.
Instagram gets a vertical composition
The same 16:9 source can be fitted into a 9:16 frame for a cleaner Instagram-oriented output.
Custom background fills the canvas
The vertical space around the fitted video can use a prepared background instead of empty bars.
Vertical Placement
Place the wide video where it works best inside the vertical frame
Put the 16:9 program higher, centered, or lower inside the 9:16 canvas so the most important subject area has room. The background carries the rest of the vertical composition.
