Describe the bug

Hello, I'm wondering why my macbook camera when I record is only in vertical mode, i can set it to square from the options later but that cuts out from the original 9:16 (which is already zoomed in) so the result is not good, i want the original recording before choosing the square mode to be 16:9 instead, how do I achieve that?

that being said thank you so much the app is very useful i like the speaker notes

Expected behavior

The camera should be in horizontal mode like if am in a google meeting or zoom, the normal web cam mode which is not vertical as this is not an iPhone camera

    Thanks for the report. Which OpenScreen version is this, and which camera does the Mac use? In the editor, what does the camera's aspect option show: Square, or Original? Also, a Save Diagnostics file from the tray after a recording would tell us what the camera delivers.
