video in "Instagram stories" format not exported correctly

Bug? It appears the Social Media Vertical 9:16 Instagram Stories format does not work.

I started a new project with the Instagram movie profile and the export settings follow the vertical Instagram story ratio of 9:16 as set by the movie profile.

The video that is being processed has been shot in portrait mode. Windows Explorer states that width is 1080, height is 1920p.

Exported video's don't follow the 9:16 ratio but instead it is 1:1.

@marcusdeman Hi, can you upload pictures of your Movie settings & Export settings, also a full screen capture of MMS?

@marcusdeman There is something weird, when I drag a 9:16 file into MMS it doesn't recognise the aspect & offer to change the project settings, it stays at my default UHD 3840x2160. but if i manually change or set the project at 9:16 Instagram Stories before dragging the media in it exports correctly,
