Change aspect ratio of video

Hello!
Is there a way to change the aspect ratio of the video streams delivered by the VideoPublisher from 1:1 to other aspect ratios (4:3, 16:9)?
Regards,
Christian

Hi,
You should check this topic. Hironmay recently answered it and I believe it could be helpful in answering your question.
Thanks,

  • CS4 changing aspect ratio, resizing video

    Hello,
    I've been working on a project at school for some time and am just now getting to the editing factor. My issue is about half way through editing it seems that its changed the aspect ratio from wide screen to a more standard ratio. I have it set to scale to the frame size. Just to clear a few things up they were all captured the same, all the original quicktime files are the same it's just once I import them into premiere that I start having issues. I really appreciate it, thanks

    After uploading it to youtube the size gets so small you can hardly see it. My main goal with this thread is to get the video to actually scale to the frame.

  • Can you 'force" change aspect ratio for DVD player 4.0?

    Hi,
    I have burnt a dvd-r from my pioneer hdd/dvd recorder (630H). The program is in 16:9 ratio but plays at 4:3 on my powerbook dvd player 4. (All other dvd-r burnt via other burners appear OK however - so I guess this is something peculiar to the Pioneer) Why is this?. Question is: is there any way to "force" the apple dvd player to change aspect ratios? Thanks for any assistance.

    I've got about 20 video tracks and one audio track all laid out and I've decided I'd like to insert something before the audio track so if I move the audio track everything else will be off.  Is there a way to shift all the video tracks and the audio track over to the right to make room for the inserted video?

  • Changing Aspect Ratio in FCPX 10.0.08

    Hi - I think I must be losing my marbles because i cant, for the life of me, find out how to change Aspect Ratio during edit.
    My rushes are previewable as full screen but once i pull them into the timeline they get letterboxed automatically.
    I search online and came across advice to go to Sequence > Settings > Change Aspect Ratio, but i cant seem to locate it.
    Can anyone help?

    I dont seem to have that icon?

  • Change aspect ratios

    How do I change aspect ratios before I start a project? 4:3 or 16:9
    I have looked everywhere and do not see it.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Change the Easy Setup to the appropriate anamorphic or widescreen format. If you make a new project the new sequence in it and the capture settings will be in the format you assigned.

  • Changing aspect ratio of copy protected videos?

    I am attempting to watch a widescreen TV show I purchased through the iTunes store on my LG plasma screen. My usual setup is a digital video out and into the plasma using VGA. The screen in this mode only gives me two aspect ratios to choose from: 16:9 or 4:3. In 16:9 mode the image appears streched and in 4:3 mode I have black margins an boths sides of the screen. When I watch a widescreen video in 16:9 it is streched with margins at the top and botton and in 4:3 mode I have now margins left and right and top and botton. I therefore usually change the aspect ratio in Quicktime so that it displays correctly in 16:9 format on the plasma. Unfortunately the new TV shows in the store are not just copy protected but I now cannot even change the aspect ratio of a video anymore under "movie properties". So the only option I have is to use the S-video output of my old Powerbook and connect to the composite input of the plasma. While this gives me many more aspect ratio options (intrinsic to the design of the plasma) the picture quality is poor. So how can I solve this? I do not want to purchase Apple TV. I have everything hardwired and do not want to change that. I understand that the files need to be copy protected. However, Apple should enable me to change the aspect ratio of a video to be able to view movies at high resolution and without a distorted picture. Any idea how to solve this?

    Hi Sameer,
    Thanks for your note, but the issue a bit different. Clicking the "fit page" and "fit width" allows you to change the zoom on the document, but the viewing area within the pod remains at a fixed ratio. So the document (unless the pod size is set at the same ratio) never fills the entire pod. Is this clear? I've added some screen shots to show what I mean more clearly.
    As you can see, no matter what the zoom level is on the PDF (or if it's to fit width as the above screen shot), it's constrained proportionally (as I mentioned, I think it's at 4:3). Ideally, I'd like to get the PDF so it can fill the entire pod and zoom in and out. Is this possible with Connect?
    Thanks! Appreciate your help.

  • Netflix would change aspect ratio 30 seconds into the video.

    I'm having an issue with Netflix video streaming changing the aspect ratio from wide format to standard within 30 seconds into the video.  Doesn't happen on the sony PS3, macbook air, ipad2.  Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
    Before:
    30 Seconds into the show

    This same thing is happening to me - AppleTV switches to 4:3 ratio 30 seconds into a movie. Then, when I try to start the video from the beginning, it then starts incorrectly (with black bars on the side and a compressed picture). I have the ATV2 connected to a brand new Samsung 32" LCD in my bedroom. This only happens when Netflix is playing on the ATV, and it happens even if I hook it up to one of my other televisions. This leads me to believe that the problem is with the ATV, not my television. The strange thing is that it was working fine for a couple of days, and then suddenly started doing this.

  • ITunes stretching videos, changing aspect ratios

    I use Elgato's EyeTV to record TV programmes, and their Turbo264 plug-in to encode for the Apple TV. All the programmes added to my iTunes library are suddenly appearing with the aspect ratio of 1456*576.
    I am certain that this is an iTunes problem rather than an Elgato problem because:
    1) If you look at the file properties in Finder the files are the correct aspect ratio of 1024*576
    2) I recorded an entire series in December and watched the first two, which displayed correctly, but appear to have become retrospectively stretched.
    Bizarrely this only appears to apply to recorded programmes or movies recorded from the TV, content acquired elsewhere is OK. It also only appears to apply only to content with a width of 1024.
    Any thoughts?

    Hi there...
    it would seem that people are increasingly reporting this issue. See my thread here;
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1377284&tstart=0
    and others such as these;
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1240053&tstart=30
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1224419&tstart=90
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1379952&tstart=90
    Hopefully Apple will look at what is going on here.
    You'll see in my thread the funny thing is you can fix the issue when you open/view the files in QuickTime but a lack of view setting options in iTunes means that the same can't be done there.

  • AE changing aspect ratio of rendered frames

    I'm rendering .png frames at NTSC DV, 720x480, Pixel aspect 0.9.  My composition settings in AE are set to the same, however, when I import the frames they are listed as 720x480 (1.11).  When viewed in the composition window the frames extend past the viewable area on both sides.  Using AE 7.0.
    Why is this happening, and how do I fix it?
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    This is going to sound weird but it's the truth. The aspect ratio doesn't change the pixels. Aspect ratio only sets the interpretation - or tells a video app how to  make those pixels fit in a desired space on a scan line. It's a lot like the PPI tag added to images intended for print. The tag has nothing to do with the actual pixels.
    That said, if you can't find a setting for choosing pixel aspect ratio when you setup the output module and the render settings, then the PAR tag won't be added to the render. AE, or your NLE will then take a look at the frame size and make a guess as to PAR and field order. The guess may be wrong. If it is, all you have to do is go into the interpretation settings and change them.
    I'd guess you're rendering to a DV codec. If so, there's no PAR tag so all you have to do is reset the interpretation. The same goes for Premiere or FCP or Vegas or any other NLE. Sometimes DV footage gets interpreted as the wrong PAR.
    Hope this helps.

  • Aspect ratio for video assets

    do all video assets need to maintain an aspect ratio of 3:2? for example, i have a QT movie (to be used as a menu header) that i animated in after effects that is 300x40. when i import this into DSP, the inspector says that it is 720x480 and the result is a distorted video. I have manipulated my AE file to maintain a 3:2 ratio (360x240) and that looks fine in DSP. However, the inspector still says that the video asset is 720x480. and, when i place it in a menu, i am prohibited from placing it exactly where i would like for it to be (due to the size of the drop zone). any thoughts or ideas?
    thanks in advance

    yes, 4:3. sorry, i'm used to AE referring to a 720x480 as 3:2. it considers a 720x540 (sq pixels) as 4:3. old habit i guess.
    when i change the drop zone's size by dragging the handles, it works fine unless i try to alter the width of the drop zone. for some reason, when i do that, it scales down the video asset.
    i've also noticed that if i set up a livetype file in a nonstandard 4:3 size (like 300x40), DSP does the same thing to it as it did to the QT that was rendered in AE. it distorts it by stretching it vertically, causing it to look horrible in a drop zone that is the same size as the livetype file. i'm just trying to find easy and efficient ways to animate button text and menu headers without having to compose the enitre menu in AE. but i believe that you are right, i may be better off just doing it that way.
    thanks for the advice,

  • Changing Aspect Ratio Question?

    I have just unwrapped and installed my new apple TV. Setup was the usual Apple synch
    However I've found someting tat is rather iritating and wanted to ask if someone can help me.
    When looking at the apple TV menue's etc the aspect ratio looks perfect on my 55" wide screen TV. and on my normal TV the current aspect ratio setting of the TV seems to work OK. I think I have it set to 16:9
    However when I either play a netflix movie or play a movie from my itunes library the picture doesnt fit and loks more like a 4:3 with black bars down the sides. I can stretch it out and it loks OK, but its very inconveniant to keep reseting the aspect ratio of my TV setup every time I use apple TV.
    BTW.. When I use the Wii to stream netflix it fits perfectly.
    I dont see a menu setting in apple TV to change aspect raitio..
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks,
    Steve

    There isn't one.  Its output is designed purely for 16:9 widescreen TVs.  Any adjustments thereafter must be made on the TV.
    If videos display incorrectly either the TV aspect ratio is wrong, TV is not widescreen, the stream (Netflix) is wrong or the local video file is wrongly encoded.  Of course if it's  a 4:3 film or TV show then it will display as intended with black bars on sides on a widescreen TV.
    When you say normal TV you presumably mean a non-widescreen TV?  AppleTV is not designed to output to 4:3 sets hence no onboard adjustments.

  • Changing aspect ratio when exporting

    I want to chamg the aspect ratio to 16:9. How do you do this in PRL 7?

    What do you want to change?
    - The original material as recorded by your camera?
    - Or a 4:3 project you are already working on in PE?
    When you start a new PE project, you should specify the format: 4:3 or 16:9 (widescreen).
    You cannot change these project settings inbetween. As a workaround: save your video on the timeline as an .avi; start a new project with the required different settings and import this .avi in the new project.
    You can input 4:3 footage in 16:9 projects and vice versa, but PE will then crop the image or add black lines to it.
    Also you can share (export) a 4:3 project as a 16:9 movie and vice versa, but the same will happen.
    Easiest to start with:
    Open a new project and select 16:9 settings.
    Import 16:9 clips from your camera or whatever source.
    If you import 4:3 clips/pictures: enlarge en position these on the timeline so that the enlarged picture will fill the entire 16:9 screen.
    Hope this helps a bit.

  • Compressor Changes Aspect Ratio of Titles

    In Final Cut Pro (6.0.6) I am editing HDV (1080) with a few titles. When I send the sequence to Compressor to export a file for Vimeo (1280x720), the video comes out fine, but the titles in the video are squished horizontally.
    In FCP, my sequence is set to:
    frame size: HD (1440x1080) (16:9)
    pixel aspect ratio: HD (1440x1080)
    In Compressor, my settings are:
    encoder: Quicktime Movie (H.264, 5000kbps)
    geometry: 1280x720
    I've messed around with different pixel aspect ratios and frame sizes in both FCP & Compressor. I've even changed the aspect ratios of my titles in FCP.
    The only way I can currently make it work is to export the sequence as a self-contained QT movie and then send that to Compressor.
    Does anyone else have this problem? Thanks.

    Though it's nice to be able to export directly to Compressor, I've gone back to my old method, which works fine: I export as a "Quicktime Movie", making sure I am set to "Current Settings", "Make Movie Self-Contained" and do not "Recompress All Frames".
    I then send this file to Compressor and run my "VimeoHD" preset and everything comes out fine.
    The extra step is worth the reliability and troubleshooting factor. You also don't have to have both FCP & Compressor open at the same time talking to each other, which means you have more resources devoted to your compression.
    I still wonder if this problem happens in FCS3?

  • Changing aspect ratio in Final Cut Express 4

    I am having trouble with the aspect ratio of my clips.
    I imported from a camera to iMovie '08, then edited all the clips which I needed (about 10 hours of 2 minute clips). Then I bought FCE4 as I realized I wouldn't be able to do what I needed in iMovie. I imported all the video in 16:9, and have checked the project settings on all of the clips in iMovie - all are set at 16:9, then I exported them as Final Cut xml files.
    I've now begun to import them into Final Cut, but they come in as 4:3. In the project properties I have them set as PAL CCIR 601, but I am not given an option to set the aspect ratio. I've tried setting it to 1.422 in the motion tab of the viewer, but it doesn't appear to do anything.
    So, how can I import these files into FCE4 and preserve the 16:9 aspect ratio?

    Hi
    Did You try.
    • After Capture
    • Select a Clip in Browser
    *• The Browser window can be extended to the right.*
    • Now more columns will be revealed - one of them Anamorphic
    • tick this for the selected clip
    • NOW drop clip into TimeLine (has to be done this way)
    How does it Play ?
