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!
John

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 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?

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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)?

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

  • ITunes changing aspect ratio of recorded TV shows

    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.

    Hi Richard,
    sounds like you are suffering from the same sort of issue I am;
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1377284&tstart=0
    Played-back programmes are ending up extremely letterboxed through iTunes and if they weren't wide-screen to start with they appear as a window in centre screen.
    The weird thing is if you open the iTunes library files using Quicktime you will find they display in the same strange way until you change a couple of playback settings. Then they appear perfectly.
    It would seem that you can't make the same playback setting changes in iTunes.

  • Change aspect ratio in a nearly completed project

    I need to change the aspect ratio of a nearly completed class project from 720x480 down to 720x418.  My source material is x418, but I started the project at x420, and I need to get rid of the black bars.  I thought the crop tool might do it, but it doesn't change the aspect ratio of the project.  Please help!

    You can't do this in FCP. You need Compressor to create custom image sizes like this.

  • Changing Aspect Ratio on multiple clips

    I posted earlier about the "16:9 confusion". I have since figured out that somehow my aspect ratio went to -33.33 on all of my clips. The only way I have found to fix this is to change the aspect ratio on each individual clip back to 0. I have hundreds of clips. Is there a way to select & change them all back to 0?
    Thanks,
    Dave

    glad you got it solved.
    As you can see you can conversely paste attributes (should you need in the future to paste filters, basic motions etc. to a number of clips ) by simply copy (command+C) the clip to which you applied a given effect or basic motion and select and right click the desired clips and choose "paste attributes..."
    Best,

  • 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.

  • Render changes aspect ratio

    Hey,
    I am cutting a film about the history of cinema where I am using clips from all kinds of movies taking from dvd. Of course they all have different aspect ratios and most of them come in wrong so I change them with the aspect ratio slider. Now here comes the problem...once you change them they obviously need rendering and sometimes some of the clips which I corrected to the right aspect ratio then change back AFTER THE RENDER and are stretched or squachted again.
    Anyone came across this?
    Thanks

    If it is to be shown on a high def screen 720x480 wont look any good unless its a dvd and you are able to upscale.
    If its a high def projector the projector will still project it as 720x480.
    If you want i to look good you need high def footage exported to high def.

  • How to crop canvas and change aspect ratio?

    I'm working on a project shot with an old camera from the 70s. I used that camera but recorded the signal on my mini dv camera. Now I have a black border on the right side of the image.
    This project is going on the Web, not TV. How can I crop the canvas (and change the aspect ratio) without a black border? I know there's a crop feature in the motion tab, but that results in same aspect ratio with black border. Is this possible?
    (I don't care if the aspect ratio is non-standard, and I don't want to letterbox.)

    If you are going to the web (what means you'll downscale at the end) and you shoot using an old camera, the loss of quality of the upscaling probably means nothing in your final web encoding.
    You can make a test upscaling just some seconds of your movie an encoding it for the web to check the final quality.
    Hope that helps !

  • Can't change aspect ratio

    My Photoshop Elements 11 has worked perfectly until today. When I open a blank file and go to change the aspect ratio, the box quickly "greys out" and doesn't allow me to edit the sizes. It's incredibly frustrating and I have no idea why it's suddenly doing this. Please help

    Go to Edit >> Preferences >> General
    Click the button: Reset preferences on next launch.
    Then close the program and startup again.
