Saved-video enhancement checklist
Updated October 4, 2026

This workflow uses a file already saved locally
It does not provide Sora access or recover inaccessible project files

1 Keep the original master unchanged
2 Record width, height, duration, frame rate, and available codec metadata
3 Select a short sample containing difficult motion
4 Compare conventional scaling before adding an AI operation
5 Record the actual mode, charge, export restrictions, and accepted result
6 Inspect identity, hands, product geometry, text, and motion stability
7 Check picture and audio at the beginning and end
8 Keep captions editable until picture processing is approved

Landscape conventional baseline, preserving aspect ratio:
ffmpeg -i saved-clip.mp4 -vf "scale=-2:1080:flags=lanczos" -c:v libx264 -crf 18 -pix_fmt yuv420p -c:a aac -movflags +faststart baseline-landscape.mp4

Portrait conventional baseline, preserving aspect ratio:
ffmpeg -i saved-clip.mp4 -vf "scale=1080:-2:flags=lanczos" -c:v libx264 -crf 18 -pix_fmt yuv420p -c:a aac -movflags +faststart baseline-portrait.mp4

These are conventional resizing commands, not AI restoration
Exact output dimensions depend on the source aspect ratio
Use distinct new output filenames and review the final encode
