2 of the same FCP Movie files but in Compressor one is 4:3 other 16:9

Hi,
I am trying to compress 2 FCP movie files to MEPG-2 for a DVD. I want the file 16:9
Both files are:
Dimensions: 1920x1080
Codecs: HDV 1080i60, (little Endian) timecode.
When I drop them in Compressor and look at the preview, one file is 16:9 and the other looks 4:3.
The info of the video that is 4:3 says:
Encoded Bounds 1440x1080
Display bounds 1920x1080
Pixel Axpect Ratio: HDV 1080i (16:9)
The other file is:
Encoded Bounds 1920x1080
Display bounds 2560x1080
Pixel Axpect Ratio: HDV 1080i (16:9)
I only have the FCP movie file (not the original timeline.) I have tried re-encoding the FCP movie file and still get the same 4:3 look.
How do I get the "Display bounds" to be 2560x1080?
Thanks!

Hi,
with regard to the movie that displays an incorrect aspect ratio:
In Compressor *Preview window* go to the middle of the top>open that popdown menu and select/check "Correct for pixel aspect ratio".
Hope that helps,
G.

    I have multiple devices in my family. Each of us has an iPhone and an iPad. Is there a way for each of us to have our own Apple ID but one account so we can all get the same music, movies, books, etc. I can't see paying twice for something in the same family.

    Welcome to the world of digital media. Your can't really transfer it. I don't know what the rules are about transferring to your spouse but I do know that in some cases when you die, your heirs cannot inherit your digital media. This is why there is still an advantage to buying the CD since the usage rights belong to whomever holds the physical media.
    A possible workaround is to burn the songs to a music CD with yout account (tracks only without song titles) and then having your wife upload it as a regular music CD onto her account. It's been a while since i've done this so I'm not sure if it would work now.
    Please note that I'm not advocating copyright and/or TOS violations. I'm only suggesting ways to copy music for your own personal use which has traditonally been permitted. I only did this because I wanted to convert iTunes songs to mp3 files so I could burn them onto a data CD for use in my car. It would make sense that since married couples are a joint entity, this would be personal use.
    Also, I'm not a lawyer so don't take this as legal advice.

    We have developed a desktop application using Flash software and published the same for MAC environment. When we double click on the index.app file, the application is working perfectly in Mac 10.6.7 at our office. But if the same index.app file is double clicked in Mac 10.6.7 at out clients location, its not opening. For your information the client is able to open this same application by double clicking on index.swf file. The main problem is that client is not able to open the application using index.app file at their office whereas we are able to do so at our office. Can anyone give some suggestions to sort this problem?

    The most common reason is different versions of Flash, or different versions of web browsers used.  Some users may elect to not have Flash installed at all because of the processor overhead of Flash.  If you are going to make an application for a client, check what operating system and browser versions they are using first.  Then determine if a stand alone application is required, or if they have the necessary plugins to run specific browser enhanced code.
    P.S. MAC is an acronym for Media Access Control.  Mac is the shorthand for Macintosh, the operating system and computers made by Apple Inc.

  • Does anyone know where the iWeb data files are located or what they are called?  I can't find them.  I looked in Finder for files named the same as my website, but found nothing.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Does anyone know where the iWeb data files are located or what they are called?  I can't find them.  I looked in Finder for files named the same as my website, but found nothing.  Any help would be appreciated.

    If you erased or replaced your hard drive since iWeb was cancelled, then they are gone. Otherwise, if you have maintained backups then check those.
    Usually such files are in the /Home/Library/ folder or a sub-folder.
    Exposing the /Home/Library/ Folder
    Pick one of the following methods:
    A. This method will make the folder visible permanently. Open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder and paste the following at the command prompt:
    chflags nohidden ~/Library
    Press RETURN.
    B. Click on the Desktop, press the OPTION (⌥) button, select Library from the Finder's Go menu.
    C. Select Go To Folder from the Finder's Go menu. Paste the following in the path field:

    The sort fields should generally be empty unless you've putting in custom values to sort solo artists by their surnames. You can apply common changes to thousands of tracks at once, just don't apply the wrong change because there is no undo.
    It is a good idea to backup before undertaking large scale changes. See this backup tip for a suggested approach.

  • Burning a FCP movie file

    Hi, this is probably a basic question but i am very new to fcp as usually use imovie&dvd!
    I have a very short sequence which i exported to QT and is now a fcp movie file not avi which seemed like an inferior quality file.
    Am having huge difficulty burning this to dvd - have tried twice in toast basic and although the movie plays and sounds perfect in the preview, when the disc mounts and plays the image is perfect but the audio is only a piercing squeal.
    Tried to burn through the finder but the disc wouldn't verify and it gave me an error code.
    To avoid too many coasters i was wondering if anyone has any idea what I'm doing wrong to get this distorted audio once burned?
    big thanks in advance

    Without a doubt, DVDSP will give you a much better product.
    But, if you simply need a quick burn to DVD, you can also use iDVD.
    Render your movie and do an audio mixdown in FCP, then... Export Quicktime Movie / current settings / self-contained (or not, if you'll be burning from the same system) / don't recompress all frames.
    Once the file is exported, just open iDVD and drag the exported movie file into the interface. There's a setting to make it 'first play', but I don't remember where.
    Burn away.
    You can also utilize the other features of iDVD...slideshows, themes, etc.

  • How on can get the plaback of .mov files with Redcode Codecs?

    Hi folks,
    I am not able to play the .mov files created by Red camera so..
    how one can get the playback of .mov files with Redcode Codecs?

    Well, one typically doesn't edit with any of the proxy-files the RED camera produces.  You need to convert the RED footage to ProRes.  Log and Transfer can do this, if you download and install the RED Log and Transfer plugin.  Or you might need to use RED software to convert the footage to ProRes.  But those Red proxy files won't import via log and transfer, and are NOT editable in FCP.  Gotta convert to ProRes.

    Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line below to select it:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
    Quit and relaunch Mail, and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Post your results.
    Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • In iphoto, how do i save a photo after editing, in the same or higher file size, it's saves in a lower size

    in iphoto, how do i save a photo after editing, in the same or higher file size, it's saves in a lower size

    It's rather more complicated that this.
    iPhoto is a lossless editor. You don't lose any quality on your shot in iPhoto.
    The file size you see reported is the size of your iPhoto Preview: this is what gets used if you access the data via a media browser. It's a "good-enough-for-most-uses" version of the shot. Email it, upload to websites, use it in Presentation, Word processing file etc
    If you want to set the quality yourself then Export the photo using the File -> Export command.
    You can choose to export to Jpeg, Tiff or png. Tiff is lossless but the file sizes are up to 10 times larger. Jpeg allows you to choose different qualities: High, Medium or low. The difference is the amount of compression involved. High quality means very little compression. It's not unusual for photos exported at this setting to have a larger file size than the original.
    Which setting you choose depends on the use you intend. Further editing, printing then high is important. Sending to Facebook? Well low will do just fine there as they're going to trash the file anyway.
    But the key point: the file size only becomes an issue when you export.

    Hi Poojith
    Not sure if this would solve your requirment but just in case might be helpful:
    1. We can mix up the HTML and HTMLB components in the JSP Page. However, can access only the HTMLB components in the controller. The following link refers to what customizations are offered by the HTMLB framework:
    [http://www.sapdesignguild.org/resources/htmlb_guidance/]
    2. Another option would be to use AbstractPortalComponents or a simple web app if that's feasible. (where custom UI themes, css and layout are more in control of the developers.)

  • The ipad won't sync some photos, saying the file can't be read by the ipad, however it will sync some photos taken at the same time which are the same size and file type.  Why does it reject some and accept others?

    The ipad won't sync some photos, saying the file can't be read by the ipad, however it will sync some photos taken at the same time which are the same size and file type.  Why does it reject some and accept others?

    Hi there. I'm having the same problem: my iPad won't import some photos from a folder, saying that they can't be read. They are all JPEGS and some photos taken at the same time have synched fine, but out of a folder with 200 photos, it only lets me synch 37. I'm synching albums created via Photoshop Elements 6, which has worked fine until now.
    I've tried deleting all photos and re-synching, and have also deleted the iPod Photo Cache, but it hasn't made a difference.
    The iPad auto-updated to the latest version of iTunes, so maybe that's what's causing it?
    Any advice gratefully received!

  • Are PhotoBooth videos the same as MOVIES/VIDEOS?

    Do those Photo Booth videos function the same as movies made in iMovie? I ask because I made some Photo Booth videos but when I try to follow the instructions for dropping a movie onto the Movie page, I don't get the results described in the Help instructions.
    The Help says that each movie page has a media placeholder and that it will accept the movie (video?) that I drop onto it. I assume that this means that the placeholder will shrink or expand to fit the size of the movie.
    So do those Photo Booth videos act the same way that movies act and function????

    http://web.mac.com/lorna6 (right now my website is in a mini upheaval........ 8-( )

    All right-- with some experimenting I did figure it out. The difference is dragging and dropping the PhotoBooth video onto the page and selecting the video from the Media Browser. When dropped from the Media Browser, the video is re-sizeable.
    For that particular issue, all is well.

    Did you export the iMovie project to a movie file i.e. .MOV file?
    You said you burned the project to a DVD.  A PC will not be able to open an iMovie project.
