Black Bars With 16/9 JPEG's and AVCHD in Video

I have Final Cut Express 4.0.1 and trying to use AVCHD video from my Sony NEX-5C camera along with JPEG pictures shot in 16/9 from the same camera. After importing everything I wound up with black bars above and belowin the viewer on everything and can't rid of them. I made a test video with one16/9 still picture and tried various settings before importing the picture, but still couldn't get rid of the bars. Also, I can't find a combination of exportsettings that eliminate the problem. I have tried exporting to a standard DVDusing Apple's "16:9 workflow for IDVD".
Any suggestions on how to make this work?

Thanks for prompt reply. I use FCE occasionally, so I am not 100% sure that I am answering your questions properly.
I checked the properties on one of the JPEG's and don't see "Format" listed. However, it is shown as 2390 x 1369 and the Pixel Aspect is "Square".
One of the video clips is shown as 1920 x 1080 @ 29.97fps. Pixel Aspect is "Square" and the Compressor is" Apple Intermediate Codec".
The Sequence shows 720 x 480 Frame Size @ 29.97fps; Compressor is DV/DVCPRO-NTSC and the Pixel Aspect is NTSC-CCIR 601.
The Sequence Aspect Ratio is wrong, but I don't know how to change it.
Thanks,
Brian
PS: I checked the Sequence Preset and it is now on Apple Intermediate Codec 1920 x 1080/60.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPad fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Just bought Adobe Photoshop Ps , clicked on the icon in my Mac dock and am staring at a black page with a perimeter of symbols and a heading that reads "Adobe Photoshop CC  2014. I don't have a clue what I do next. I would like to transfer some photos from my iPhoto library. Where do I start?

    Photoshop does not transfer files nor import files. It can open files from any place that finder can access for files.
    This is the normal process:
    You need to log into https://www.adobe.com/creativecloud/catalog/desktop.html Download Center
    Select the app you would like to start with
    The Creative Cloud manager will install first.
    When done installing, the Creative cloud (adobe manager) should open in the middle of your screen.
    If no apps automatically start installing then click on Apps
    Scroll down to the app you want to install and click the install button
    Once the manager says it is done, you can start your app like you normally do with any other app.

    why do I have a black screen with the icon spinning round and won't open my photos?

    Because there is a problem. Want to try fix it?
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • Black bars with 1600 x 900

    Hello im trying to make a counterstrike source movie and im recording my footage in 1600 x 900 and 16:9 so i finally figured out how to setup
    a CUSTOM sequence and get my resolution in there as 1600 x 900 and 16:9 but the issue i am having is the black bars once i export. ive researched on these forums about this issue and some people say to scale it?? not quite sure what that means but im using the sequence settings desktop with 1600 x 900 and 16:9 when i export i also select use sequence settings. any help would be appreciated. thanks

    to answer your question im using counterstrike source video game and the start movie command in 1600 x 900 and 16:9 resolution. ive also tried virtual dub and i can get it to where it has no bars on virtual dub but not adobe. hopefully this is all the settings you asked for. maybe it has to do with me not knowing what settings to use?? but this is as close as ive gotten
    using the i frame only mpeg for the codec(only one i could do a custom res on i think)
    width and hieght 1600 x 900
    pixel aspect ratio d1/dv  ntsc widescreen 16:9(unsure of what to use closest i could find)
    here are the properties of the video i made with no bars that im trying to edit in premier
    Type: AVI Movie
    File Size: 8.7 MB
    Image Size: 1600 x 900
    Pixel Depth: 0
    Frame Rate: 60.00
    Total Duration: 00:00:07:08
    Average Data Rate: 1.2 MB / second
    Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1.0
    basically this gives me a video with no bars on top which is great. but it has bars on the side which is not so great.

  • A narrow black bar with text in it telling me what I am doing, has appeared on my screen. Also, there's a voice over speaking the same thing. How can I get rid of it?

    I was checking out some keyboard shortcuts when a black bar appeared with white letters repeating letters as i type. Then telling me where i am and what I'm doing. Also a voice over started, telling me what I was doing. How can I stop this and get rid of the black text bar? It even creates text boxes and things without asking. Help!

  • Black Bar with Quicktime Media in Vista x64

    When I try to launch Quicktime media files in Firefox or IE I get a black bar instead of the playback controls. However, when I make the browser run in "Windows XP" Compatibility mode the controls run fine, but my theme runs in windows vista basic.

    QuickTime Player is not supported on 64 bit Windows OS's and this is a known "bug" for these users.
    "Compatibility Mode" uses a 32 bit version with proper results.
    You must choose.

  • I hid the address bar with a right click option, and cannot seem to get it back, how can I do this?

    I was watching some TV on the WB, and their player doesn't have a 'pop out' option, so I opened it in a new window, and hid the address bar with a right click-> hide option or something along those lines, and now I can't seem to get it back with the same methods, nor can I find a way to access properties or anything. All I can see are the tabs I have open and the bookmark bar.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    There are different solutions depending on kind of the problem.
    Keyboard:Alt+V,T,N
    Navigation toolbar, including address bar, should appear
    Then
    Keyboard:Alt+V,T,M
    Menu bar, including File, Edit, View, should appear
    Right-click the bookmark bar
    Click Customize... in the context menu.
    In the Customize Toolbar window which appears find the address bar (It will be shorter) amongst the buttons here.
    Drag the address bar by mouse onto the main window, where you want it to be.

  • IPhone OS 2.0 at Black Screen with Apple Logo, Apps crash and not run

    Apple Support: Do not delete this. I am complying with your requests. According to your T&C, I must state my problems in question form to ask the community or your teams for help in a constructive way. I believe my original post was only playfully negative, but since I am complying now, I would expect that you do not delete this, otherwise you're simplying just trying to put spin on a buggy release. PLEASE HELP. I have not heard back from Feedback, and phone support continually says to RESTORE the phone, which only solves these problems for a few hours.
    1) My iPhone OS 2.0 is very slow, even with a virgin restore with no apps or synchronized content.
    2) My iPhone OS 2.0 reboots at random times.
    3) My PURCHASED applications crash randomly, under unreproducible conditions.
    4) Free applications crash randomly.
    5) My iPhone OS 2.0 will not boot after an irregular interval of reboots, showing only the black screen with the apple logo. Letting this sit for 8 hours simply drains the battery until it goes pitch black. POWER+DOWN_ARROW and an iTunes restore is the only way to recover. This process takes hours to complete.
    I have gone several days without a working phone while away from the iTunes at home to restore my contacts and other data vital to the operation of my business, not to mention a phone that actually works to make and receive calls.
    As stated in the previous post, I'm a loyal Apple customer, and have spent considerable time evangelizing the brand, and have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars by purchasing Apple laptops instead of Dell.
    Can you please tell me how to solve this? If there is no firmware problem, please give me a real solution to fix this. I am not the only one with this problem.
    Thank you in advance,
    Kevin

    Many of us have this problem. I've had it several times now.
    The only way to fix it, is to restore the iPhone.
    I know it seems like it wont boot, or wont do anything, but it will... just do this.
    Start Itunes. Turn off the iPhone, now put it in the dock or plug it into the USB cable, WHILE holding the top button on the phone down. Keep holding it down. It will then show a connect cable icon on the phone. It should show up in iTunes at this point. Proceed to restore the phone per screen instructions.
    Once its back up and booting and working etc...
    MAKE SURE... you DO NOT... install any application or delete any application on your iphone. IF you dare do so.... MAKE ABSOLUTELY certain you do not do ANYTHING at the same time. That means NEVER DL an app from itunes store on your phone, and while it is installing, ... avoid clicking on anything, touching the phone, starting a different app, going back to the itunes store...
    In other words... If you try to multitask... it causes some weird bug.

  • Black Screens with VDI 3.1.1 and Windows XP SP3 on Vmware

    We've got a full VDI 3.1.1 environment we're prepping for production rollout in a few months, but our initial testing with a small group of people is seeing a random series of black screens on the Sun Rays. If you do CTRL+ALT+BACK+BACK to reset the session, it comes back to the login screen and you can login again and pick up where you got disconnected. Similarly, if you disconnect the DTU's session from the Sun Ray server console, it goes back to the login screen and they can continue working again.
    Sometimes the "disconnects?" happen during various activities -- none of which are repeatable really. Sometimes they happen when nobody is using the thin client at all. Are these Sun Ray problems a known issue? I see several other threads about "black screens", but no definitive answers so far.
    Oh, and nothing in the Sun Ray server log or the VDA logs when this happens... the only things we see in the logs are when we disconnect the session manually to fix the issue.
    Any advice would be appreciated.
    thanks

    known issues are described in the following document
    http://sunsolve.sun.com/search/document.do?assetkey=1-62-280050-1
    please try the workaround or if you have a active Support contract contact Support for a temporary fix. All known issues that can contribute to "black screens" will be fixed in the next Sun Ray Server 4.2 patch.
