My widescreen movie is showing up full screen in iDVD

The settings are for 16:9 in iDVD. When I open it in Quicktime or Final Cut Pro it comes up 16:9, but when I preview it and burn it in iDVD it shows up squeezed into 4:3. I'm about to pull my hair out. Please help. : )

Does this help?

  • Can I see a movie in iPhoto NOT full screen?

    I have the latest iPhoto and Lion.  When I click a movie in iPhoto, it automatically blows it up to ful screen!  It didn't used to do this (I don't think so, anyway.)  The movie would play whatever size it was.  Is there a preference or setting so the same happens now?  That is, iPhoto doesn't decide for me that the movie should be full screen?
    Thanks,

    COOL!   Now THAT'S a better idea than mine!!
    Old Toad, you don't know me, but we produce programing aired on Public Television.  You may enjoy this little 5 minute show . . .
    We're big with Final Cut Pro and most Apple things - but a little weak in other areas.  But THAT's OK - YOU help us out!
    Just click here - and click the police car at the bottom!

  • I can't play videos (youtube for example) unless it is in full screen mode. The audio works in either, but the video only shows in full screen. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I can't play videos (you tube for example) except in full screen mode. The audio works in either, but the video doesn't load or run in the normal you tube web site.

    Also, the error console shows all sorts of different errors. Though, alot of error parsing values.

    Do you have any Mail plug-ins? In particular, do you
    have any plug-ins installed on one computer but not
    the other? In the Finder, go to each of the following
    folders (if they exist). What do you see there?
    /Library/InputManagers/

    /Library/Mail/Bundles/

    > I have a number of Mail Rules in
    place which place messages
    of certain topics in specific Smart

    This doesn’t make sense to me. You cannot tell a rule
    to move messages to a smart mailbox, only to a normal
    mailbox. Each smart mailbox has its own set of
    conditions that messages must satisfy in order for
    them to appear there.
    OK. I misstated this. I have a number of Smart Mailboxes with their specific rules in which to route certain topics to specify mailboxes. I am trying to not have to create each Smart Mailbox on each computer.
    The problem is that when I am on the road I add contacts, bookmarks, keychain items, contacts into my laptop and vice versa when home. I would just like to have those Sync on both computers. Seems like it should be easy, but it hasn't been.
    I really don't think I have anything "non-standard." A few Smart Mailboxes, a couple of signatures, thats pretty much it.
    Note: For those not
    familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers
    to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any
    of the folders referred to in this post by copying
    the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder

  • Bridge won't show me full screen view when pressing spacebar?

    This has been happening for a while now.  I've had this mac and cs4 for a while with no problems.  Then one day, I was looking through a recent photo shoot, I pressed space bar so I could view the image in full screen view, and the dashboard disappeared as well as the menu bar at the top for Bridge itself. ??
    I did all updates, as well as un-installed Bridge and re-installed.  Still having the same (ANNOYING) issue?!
    Why would Bridge just ONE DAY start doing this?  Is it some setting or something I clicked?  I don't get it.
    If anyone's had this problem before (and figured it out!) I would be SO GRATEFUL for some help!

    I pressed space bar so I could view the image in full screen view, and the dashboard disappeared as well as the menu bar at the top for Bridge itself. ??
    Not sure I understand your problem, Bridge by default shows only the image at full screen with a grey background bordering the parts that don't fit to the screen ratio. Clicking with the mouse in the image shows that part at 100 % and having used rating (cmd + . or cmd + , ) for in- or decreasing rating brings the rating and filename bottom left in view. Has always been this way to my knowledge.
    For good sharpness of the full screen image select the option to generate monitor sized previews in Bridge preferences advanced tab.

  • The new iTunes update mutes the volume when movies are played in full screen.  Help?

    Yep.  After installing 11.1.3, the audio of a movie in iTunes when you switch to full screen plays for a fraction of a second and then goes off.  I can play other things in the background (Pandora, ANYTHING with volume) and the volume for those is fine.  Full screen iTunes, however, is muted.  Furthermore, when I switch from full screen to regular, the audio picks up where it was BEFORE full screen mode and is out of sync until I quit out of the movie and reopen it.
    Is this a new 'feature' setting or has the update given us some fun errors and bugs free of charge?

    Thanks for your reply AppleMan1958. Unforunately the playback problem was only experienced in the project described, - all other projects played fine....and I tried a lot of different ways to do it...so I really believe the whole project, including the playback (which did not work in the editing window in the right hand corner either, -nothing was shown there and the red marker line would not move across the project) just suddenly become totally corrupt...However, after deleting the project as described above and installing imovie11 I have done the whole thing over again and completed the project without problems this time.
    But thanks for the tip anyway!

  • Show photo full screen without border?

    When I try to show a photograph "full screen" (ctrl-cmd-F), there is a border around the photo which wastes screen space and makes the photo harder to see than a true full screen display would.  Is there a way to show photos over the whole screen without Photos adding anything (like borders or controls)?  I know you can use the slider to make a single image fit the screen, but of course, that is unreasonable for many photos, especially if you are showing photographs to other people.  Thanks.

    I found the (sort of) answer after some playing a bit more.  It seems that Photos does not enlarge a photo to fill the screen if the photo's resolution is less than the resolution of the screen (or maybe some multiple of the resolutions is used).  So if you have a large photograph and show it in full screen, it will indeed take the full screen.  But if you have say a 1200x800 photo on a MacBook Retina 15 inch, full screen will show the photo with a border around it. 
    I've never before seen a photo viewer that does not have an option to expand small photos to fill the screen, but apparently I have now.  I assume this omission is in keeping with Apple's philosophy that function is secondary to simplicity (where simplicity is defined solely as keeping options to a minimum).  I'd love to be wrong about this so if anyone knows of an option to expand all photos to fill the screen regardless of the resolution of the original image, I'd still like to know.   Thanks again

    Welcome the forum, Angelitos.
    You may have Aero Snap turned on.  You can disable the feature.
    See the following document:
    HP PCs - Windows 7 Accessibility Options - c03543992
    Scroll down the document a bit more than halfway;
    See the Section titled:  Disabling Aero Snap
    You might reboot / restart the computer after making the change.

    That should do it.

  • Video only shows in full screen

    Videos played fine earlier today. Without changing anything videos now have sound but no picture. If I choose full screen they play fine. I have reinstalled itunes 11.1.1 and no change. Closed and restarted itunes and again no change. Tried restarting my MacBook Pro and still no change. Anyone have this issue? Know what the issue is?
    Itunes 11.1.1
    MacBoo Pro late 2011
    OSX 10.7.5

    I have had the same problem, but because I have been using
    Google Chrome almost exclusively for the last couple of months, I
    thought it was a Chrome problem and not a Flash problem.
    Unfortunately I did not read your response about reinstalling Flash
    9. I went through and uninstalled and redownloaded it to see if
    that would solve the problem.
    It was just today when I realized that the same problem
    happens on Firefox. I remarked with surprise about it to my husband
    and he replied that is why he has been checking his YouTube
    subscriptions in IE. Well,duh.
    So the symptoms as we know it are:
    In either Firefox or Chrome, two or three YouTube videos will
    play fine.
    After this, no Flash-based movies will play properly for some
    undetermined time.
    After going on to other things and coming back, one video
    will play fine. The error then returns and won't go away again
    without restarting the browser.
    Except...
    Today I rebooted, switched from Chrome to Firefox, even to IE
    and you name it, this error would not go away. The video in
    question was a user-uploaded Facebook video in a player that looks
    like a vimeo player. I uninstalled and reinstalled and the error
    was worse. Two second of the frame jumping and then no picture. IE
    would not acknowledge that Flash had been reinstalled.
    Is there some way for me to redownload version 9? I deleted
    the executable file I had of version 9 in order to download version
    10 today.

  • When watching news movies, I go to full screen, and screen goes blank.

    The small video image which shows the news has a button to make the image full screen. When I press that, the whole screen goes blank.
    When I use Internet Explorer, it works OK. I think It was also OK when I used the previous version of Firebird.

  • Edited photos not showing in full screen

    I have edited some photos (crop and/or colour adustments). Although the thumbnail is still visible, it will not load in full screen mode - I'll only see a gree square with an explanation mark.
    Even more annoying, a photo book I'd ordered came with grey spaces: again the thumbnail appeared allright, but if I click to view the page I get this screen picture holder. I'll have to ask for a reimbursement, but in the mean time, I'd like to know what to do.

    I'm having some trouble posting. Sorry for my last post with only original message showing and my comments missing.
    I am having trouble with full screen also but not quite the same. I cannot get a previosly edited photo to show full size on the full screen. It only transfers in the same small size as it is in the Library source screen even though I clk on the preference for "edit in full screen." Any idea what is wrong?

  • Images in galleries not showing in full screen mode

    I have a number of galleries in my ibook.  Some of them work fine and the pictures open up in full screen when tapped/pinched.  Other gallers dont allow me to view the pictures in full screen.  I have created them all the same way as far as I know.  Has anyone else had this problem and know how I can resolve it?  thanks in advance.

    If you believe the resources are similar but act differently, you might have some sort of corruption in one of them or in your book that is contributing to how that book displays on an iPad.
    Try taking the wonky ones out, then saving and putting them back one at time to see if you can isolate the issue.

  • Dock doesn't show in full screen Safari

    I have the dock set to reveal itself when I go to the bottom of the screen. When I'm in full screen mode in Safari it takes me swiping down at least 3 or 4 times before the dock will appear. I've tried it in other apps on full screen and it still doesn't react as easily as it should but not as bad as Safari.
    I'm assuming only an update from Apple will fix this. I'm posting here in hopes they read this and fix it. (Hope I'm posting in the correct area for that).
    Thanks

    Well you could try rebooting or
    in the terminal.app relaunch the Dock, copy and paste:
    killall Dock
