A vertical 1080×1920 input was rendered as a 2462×1080 landscape canvas, instead of preserving the source orientation.

What was measured

Output resolution

Does it maintain the input resolution or downscale?

context, not decisivetransformation

Keeping full resolution is important for delivery quality, but it is a downstream output constraint rather than the main background-removal task itself. (3 of 3 judges)

What was given, what came back

Test input: Indoor Talking Head · video · group: remove-or-replace-video-backgrounds-using-ai

Input — what we sent

An indoor talking-head video of a person speaking directly to the camera with a static background, natural hand gestures, and facial expressions. It was used to test how well tools preserve the subject while replacing an indoor background.

Why this input is hard

· Static camera performance
· Face and body segmentation
· Facial expression preservation
· Background replacement accuracy in an indoor environment

Output — unretouched

Also checked on this input — same tool, 3 other criteria

Edge quality✓ WorkedThe subject's outline is matted cleanly, with no obvious tearing or missing chunks around the silhouette.Hair and fine detail✓ WorkedGlasses and hair were preserved cleanly, with no visible tearing in the matting around those fine details.Temporal consistency✓ WorkedThe matte showed no flicker or dropout from frame to frame across the full clip.

Bria.ai◐ MixedThe output kept the 3840×2160 frame size, but the subject content is rotated about 90° inside that frame, so the clip is not a clean upright export.Cutout.Pro⚠ StruggledDownscales the roughly 2160×3840 source to 360×640 and truncates a 15.35s clip to 5.021s.Descript✗ FailedIt converts a 3840×2160 landscape source into a 720×1280 portrait export, changing orientation as well as downscaling.InVideo AI✓ WorkedIt produced 4320×7672 output, exceeding the requested 4K vertical ask.VEED◐ MixedDownscales a 4K-class talking-head source from effective 2160×3840 to 1080×1920 on export, while preserving the 15.35s duration exactly.
