Codec that supports 0,75 aspect ratio 1920x1080

Hello there.
My camera happens to churn out 1920x1080 0,75 aspect ratio 25fps MP4 videos. GSpot also gives the following information; Codec: avc1 and Name: H.264/MPEG-4 AVC. Hopefully that's enough info.
Usually these work just fine with After Effects, but this is second occasion I actually have to run them through Media Encoder to get them working. Should not be big deal, happened once before and After Effects did accept files after they had been once encoded. The problem is, I don't seem to be capable of finding format that suits the said video type. All I want is as identical as possible file that I can work with. First I thought I'd simply use H.264 -> Nope, you can't choose 0,75 aspect ratio and it squeezes video and adds black bars. Annoying. I tried few formats that had customizable aspect ratio (sliders... annoying too). They have varied resorts, some screwed up quality, some didn't allow me to use that high resolution (told me to increase level or profile even though they already were as high as they could) and some produced enormous files without the same quality.
Seriously, could you point me to fileformat/codec that keeps the same/similiar quality, supports aspect ratio like that and let's me continue my work? Messing with these encoding settings is almost enough to make a grown man cry. Remembering how much trouble I had last time (in the end resulted in enormous file size with almost the same quality, ridiculous) even thinking about this stresses me bit too much for my liking.
Thanks in advance.

Hey, Mark. Thanks for your time.
Forgot to mention, it's interlaced. Good thing you included suggestions for both, though.
What makes you think the source content is 1440x1080? I'm quite sure it's 1920x1080, as it's the number given everywhere. I tried the H.264 Blu-Ray format, but it once again gave me the black bars both with 1440x1080 and 1920x1080. The 1920x1080 one was closer to the truth.
So the problem still stands, any further suggestions would be much appreciated.
*edit*
Here is example of footage incase some of you want to try it out with your own encoders.

  • HT1536 .AVI codecs that support retina display.

    Is there one that works?

    All was fine until the organiztion's PC went south (10years old). I am covering with my personal equipment until a replacement can be approved and aquired. As fate would have it I just recently replaced my dying MacBook Air with a !3' Retina MacBookPro.
    Thanks for the apmplifying info. This is a "horse of a different color." Had thought you were referring to the "Retina" iPad. Platform display type should not make a difference, Mac OS X version, QT player version, and compression format(s) used in the AVI container make all the difference in the world here.
    Basic question is whether or not you have installed Perian and the QT 7 player app on the new system. Perian plus the QT 7 player basically support most AVI compression formats currently compatible with Mac OS X operating systems. Remember AVI is a legacy file format that has not been supported by Microdoft for more than 11 years. Some PC codecs have never been transcoded for OS X or Mac Intel platform use, some AVI files simply cannot be played by the QT players.
    I have been unable to get .avi video to play on the MacBook using QuickTime Player and Flip4Mac. Neither currently supports .AVI for Retina is my understanding. I am looking for a temporary solution to just time play .AVI files once and done.
    The real question is "what compression formats are you trying to play?" and "in which QT player on your new system?" If both QT 7 and Perian are installed and if the QT X player cannot play the AVI file natively, it will normally ask the user if he or she wants to play the file in the QT 7 player. To further complicate matters, since the introduction of Lion, Apple has, by default, turned off legacy codecs used by the embedded QT structure which were normally used natively for AVI export.
    If playback is all you are interested in, then VLC can be used for this purpose since it includes its own codec resources within the app. The QT 7 player plus the Perian codec package provides similar playback capabilities. On the other hand, if you want to play and/or convert common AVI codec content to QT compatible files without purchasing a commercial conversion app, then you can use Perian (for decoding) and either QT 7 Pro ($29 USD) or the free MPEG Streamclip app (for encoding to any available export codec for which your system is configured).

  • Codec that supports 16 & 32 bit per channel color?

    What Quicktime 7 built-in codecs support hi-bit 16 & 32 bits per channel?

    I assume you're working with image files.
    The Animation codec supports 16 (Millions of Colors) and 32 (MIllions of Colors+). Great, fast encoding, high quality video.
    Photo-JPEG uses 32 bit.
    If you're only using a single frame your could use TIFF, PNG for 16 and 32 bit and Photo-JPEG for 32.

  • Aspect Ratio

    Hello,
    This question has baffled me for a while.
    I create DVDs using FCStudio. During this process I have had a hard time understanding what I need to do to create a "native" screen size that looks as intended during playback on a Television that supports native 16:9 ratio.
    My files are created using PAL 720 x 576.
    Exporting to Quicktime and importing to DVDSP.
    I've played around with the sequence settings with no luck.
    What I'd like to know is why do my Purchased DVDs look great on a Television no matter if it's a 4:3 Television or a 16:9 Widescreen Television?
    I never have to adjust any television settings to view the movie as intended.
    However, My content looks great on a DVD player that is connected to a 4:3 Television. When I play the same DVD on a DVD Player connected to a Widescreen Television, I have to change the settings on the Television to 4;3 to view as intended-—Which is annoying the ** out of me!
    I'd like to create content that is for Widescreen Televisions. If the DVD is played on a 4:3 Television I'd like to have the black bars Top and Bottom.
    I also want to avoid having to adjust any TV settings. I have never had to adjust any TV settings for my DVDs in my DVD collection. If there is a way of doing this, a setting to change, new format, anything, I'd be very grateful for your advice.

  • Multiclip with different aspect ratio

    I'm noticing that when I try to do a multiclip with a movie format that involves a different aspect ratio than DV I lose the ability to view live multiclip angles. I've tried several formats and it doesn't appear to be codec related. If the aspect ratio of the sequence is 4:3 or 16:9(natively, not anamorphically), the options from the RT menu disappear including the "Multiclip playback" option, and even without putting it into a sequence it won't play back in the Viewer.
    I'm making offline JPEG versions of some HD footage which is 16:9, and I guess I can just make anamorphic versions to work with, but that seems highly unnecessary. Am I reading this problem correctly and if so is there any reason for it or is it a bug?

    I'm multiclipping 4 angles, they're photo jpeg movies as made by Compressor's JPEG 75 NTSC setting but resized to 640x360 with square pixels. The material is located on an external firewire drive. From the same source I'm still able to play 6 or 7 standard-def NTSC DV files as multiclip angles just fine.

  • Change pixel aspect ratio

    Hi all,
    My school requires me to produce all my videos in a format of 768px by 576px, square pixels, PAL format.  I need to know how to change the pixel aspect ratio to 768x576 with the standard PAL format and square pixels.  I can see that when you start a project you can set the size, but the boxes that contain the pixel size are shadowed out and I can't select them to change them. I have also tried to modify the project after it was created, using project settings and sequence settings, but again, I was not able to select the boxes that included the pixel aspect ratio.
    Please help soon, as my project is due within hours.

    My source material is 768x576 animations from Maya.  The output needs to be .avi format, but it's not going onto a DVD or a DV tape or a web video, it just needs to be uploaded to my instructor's computer.
    I am trying to export a file with the correct aspect ratio now.  I set the output to codec=none, and changed the aspect ratio to 768x576.  It seems unable to output the file, as I have tried four times and it has given me an error each time.  Is a codec necessary?  Is that what's freaking it out?
    Also, the final video will only be 2:28 long, and I have set the scratch disk to a drive on my computer that has 78 GB free, so I hope it is not running out of processing space.
    Thank you for your help and patience with this problem.  I'm not sure I get the reason for the format myself, which is probably why I'm having trouble explaining why this is so important.  However, my instructor told us numerous times that we absolutely had to have a final file that was 768x576, so I figured I had to make every effort to get it done that way.

  • MENU ASPECT RATIO ERROR UPON BIULD

    All,
    I wondered if anyone may be able to help... I've been constructing my company's showreel DVD using ENCORE over the last few weeks, encountering a mixed variety of unpredictable bugs along the way. Just when I thought I'd cracked the project, I've started to encounter a very troubling error that prevents me from build a finished DVD.
    Upon Building, i continuously get the following message attached to a variety of different menu file names:
    PGC "menu file name" has an error at 0.000s. The aspect ratio of this file is not supported by DVD. -PGC Info: name = GGN_MENU_FORD_story.ref= EBpgc, time = 0.000s
    I presumed that this was relating back to the pixel aspect ratio of the menus upon creating in Photoshop, but the frustrating thing is that i haven't changed these ratios from successful builds on earlier versions of the disk. I'm loathed to start unpicking the project...
    Any ideas? Thanks,
    Will

    Tell me about the menu that is erroring - its aspect ratio, is it a motion menu, etc.

  • Aspect Ratio Change

  • Dreadful handling of 3:2 aspect ratio photos by Photos App on 5S with IOS 7

    When you view photos that have 3:2 aspect ratio (a common standard from digital SLR cameras) in the Photos APP on the Iphone 5S with IOS 7, the software attempts to set each photo to fill the screen.  This in itself is extremely annoying, as the top and bottom of each photo is cropped, and there is no setting to stop this happening (i.e. to view the photo in its original aspect ratio with the black bars on the left and right).  However, there is a further irritating "bug" that means that each time you swipe to the next photo, it adjusts the position of the cropped photo giving a jump in the picture with every swipe.  This makes viewing multiple photos by swiping past them a completely negative experience, as there is a complete lack of smoothness to the visual experience.  By contrast, photos with aspect ratios that give wider black bars on each side are retained in their original aspect ratio (e.g. the ones from the phone's own camera) - but for some reason once the bars get smaller, the software chooses to resize the photo to fill the screen.  The fact that it does this for the standard SLR photo aspect ratio (not to mention a standard setting of many digital cameras) of 3:2 is really unfortunate.  A setting to stop any attempt to resice a picture (i.e. to view in the original aspect ratio no matter what that ratio) is clearly needed.  Additionally, a fix for the judder on each new photo is also required once it does fill the screen.
    Anyone else noticed this - and any suggestions until it is fixed?

    I've noticed it, too. It's very annoying. I am a "semi-professional" photographer (meaning every once in awhile someone pays me to take photos for them.) and I put many of my DSLR photos on my phone. It's a big pain to have to resize them on-screen each time. Wish there was a fix,

  • Problem with pixel aspect ratio

    I searched but found no answer.
    I have several Maya renders which are at a resolution of 720x486 and a pixel aspect ratio of 1.2. I composited my image sequences in after effects interpreting that 1.2 pixel aspect ratio. I then exported a quicktime movie using no compression at 24fps at a resolution of 720x480 NTSC 16:9.
    When I import this video into Encore 2.0 It comes out as full screen. Not only is it full screen, but when I preview the dvd, the video is blurry with scan lines and black bars on the left and right side. The menu however, is widescreen (I used a template as a test)and perfectly clear. I tried to select the asset and go to file>interpret footage, but this option is grayed out. I have also tried exporting an avi from after effects and importing that into Encore. It still will not let me set the pixel aspect ratio. I have read that After Effects does not embed the pixel aspect into exported videos. I have also read that I should export mpeg2 videos for use in Encore, however I do not see this option in After effects or Premiere Pro.
    What am I doing wrong? Any help is appreciated. If I left any information out that could be useful, please let me know.

    (Ack, for some reason I typed "DVI" and really meant "DV")
    Thanks for the response. I don't really care if I preserve the 4:3 aspect ratio. Or does my GL1 not use square pixels and I just never noticed it? It's strange I've never seen this problem until FCE HD.
    I have tried exporting a number of ways from FCE, including Export > QuickTime Movie... and Using QuickTime Conversion... For the latter, I typically set it to export as 720x480. I always export as video. The final export contains video clips as well as still images within the video.
    I am a bit embarrassed having to ask this question. I've been working with still images in photoshop for over a decade and worked a lot with video during that time as well.
    Thanks again.

  • Problems with aspect ratio metadata filtering, am I doing things wrong?

    Hi,
    I tried to filter out all my pictures in a collection that has a portrait aspect ratio but LR is doing it all wrong.
    As you can see, there is a mix of landscape and portraits even though portrait is filtered.
    I tried to look at some of my other collections and see if this was an isolated issue but found that I have the problem here and there.
    Found this example:
    Even though the dimensions in the EXIF-info on the right says 3456x2304, LR thinks that the picture is square.
    Could I be doing something wrong here or could I somewhere help LR on the way or is it a bug of some sort? I'm using LR 3.3 on a Mac with Mac OS 10.5.8
    Thanks in advance,
    -Jimmy

    Many thanks. Didn't think of that but I cropped all the wrong pictures to landscape and then did a reset to the crop and that did the trick. There were almost 4000 pictures wrong so I'm glad that I could use the auto-sync feature to do it faster.

  • ASPECT RATIO Elements 11

    Is it possible that I LOST my aspect ratio option in tool options when cropping a photo for the website???  It is gone and I am sure it was there before. Using photo ratio, customer or other is no good for what I am doing. Please help someone.

    Aspect Ratio does not appear in PSE11 Crop Tool.
    This is the standard Tool Panel (you can enter your own dimensions in W & H):

  • 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.

  • 16x9 aspect ratio quicktime movie switches to 4x3 in idvd

    I have a quicktime movie that has a 16x9 aspect ratio. In Info the dimensions show up as 720x480 (853x480) and when opened in Quicktime it is opening in the correct aspect ratio it was created. After bringing the Quicktime movie into an idvd project that was set up for 16x9, when I click on the movie, it shows up as a 4x3 movie, and the images are noticeably distorted. Any ideas on how to resolve this? Thanks.

    A solution is to use something called Anamorphizer that sets the file's widescreen flag so that it is recognized as anamorphically squeezed widescreen.
    Get Anamorphizer at http://homepage.mac.com/sith33/FileSharing34.html
    Make sure Quicktime 7 is open before you try Anamorphizer. (NOTE: You MUST use Quicktime 7 and NOT Quicktime X)
    Place a copy of your movie clip in a new folder and drag that clip over the Anamorphizer icon. This should create a second file in that folder that start with Anamorphic- This is the reference movie you drag-and-drop into iDVD. Note that your clip in that folder (which is the movie the reference movie points to, must not be moved or deleted).
