Exported image is always stretched... source clips 1080p, sequence settings 720p.

So I'm trying to export a file from FC7 at 720p, but it always comes out stretched, no matter what resolution I have the export set to. The source clips are mostly 1080p, but I chose to edit 720p because my Mac was just too slow to be able to efficiently edit in 1080p.
Sequence settings:
Frame Size: 1280x720 (HD 720p)
Pixel Aspect Ration: NTSC - CCIR 601 / DV (720x480)
Anamorphic: Off
The clip settings are mostly 1920x1080, however I'm also working with some still images that vary in resolution. In editing, all of the clips are zoomed in, as I'm trying to cut out some aspects of the image, and focus on specific details within the clip's frame.
In the canvas, the image looks just as it should be, but whenever I export, it is noticeably stretched. I feel like I've run out of options, and I'm thinking of re-editing the entire thing (it's not that long) in 1080p. My gut tells me that it has to do with the clip formats being different from the sequence settings, but I can't figure out anything else that I could try to get it to export properly.
I was hoping if anybody had any ideas, they could shoot them my way. I'd appreciate it.
Thanks!

Unfortunately this did not work, but I feel like it should have when I observe the clip settings. Interestingly, when I set the sequence Pixel Aspect Ratio to square, the image on the canvas appears stretched in the same way that it does in all the exported files that I had previously created. The clip settings are as follows:
Resolution: 1920x1080
PAR: Square
Compressor: H.264
Frame rate: 59.94
Other images that I used are varying resolutions, but also have a square PAR. The sequence settings are as I mentioned in the opening post, but here are some added details that vary from the clip settings:
Compressor: Apple Proress422
Frame rate: 29.97
I tried changing all of the PAR of the clip settings to match the sequence settings, but this didn't work either. Honestly, I think I might just resort to working within 1080p where the sequence settings are changed to match the clip settings exactly, because I opened up a test sequence and it works just fine this way. I appreciate the help a lot though, thank you!

Why does my media want to export as a MXF when I match the sequence settings?

I've made films with Premiere CC before and have never had this problem, I go to export I click the box to match my sequence settings and it will export as a MPEG, and now, it wants to export as a MXF. My computer doesn't recognize MXF files. Is there any reason why this may be happening?

Thanks so much you guys. So I don't know what was up with my computer or my software, but, it used to be that I had to check the match sequence settings to get my project to export with the same video dimensions. But, I have now fixed it! Thanks so much! Now I have better quality and I'm doing it right

How do I match a clip to sequence settings and sequence presets?

I'm getting the warning: Attention - This clip does not match this sequence's settings or any or our sequence presets.
I'm trying to figure out how to set things up in Compressor so that my clips do match my sequence settings and presets. The issue seems to be with the audio not matching.
Here are the sequence settings:
Audio-2 Outputs
Frame Size- 1920x1080
Vid Rate-24fps
Compressor-Apple ProRes 422 (proxy)
Aud Rate 48.0 KHz
Aud Format 32-bit floating Point
I shot all the footage with a Canon 5D Mark II. I'm using Compressor to convert all my original clips. The only thing I don't seem to be able to match is the Audio. I can't find any way in Compressor to encode clips that have "two outputs" in the Audio column.
The dialogue box for "Sound Settings" in Compressor doesn't offer any sort of options, that I can find anyway, to generate clips with "two outputs."

These are the Compressor settings:

What are the correct 1080p sequence settings to choose in FCP7?

I'm planning to master a doc-film project in 1080p. The problem is that I don't see a 1080p setting in FCP's sequence settings window. FCP lists HDTV720p and HDTV1080i but no 1080p.
Do I therefore need to select the "Custom" setting? Or should I master in 720p and then upconvert to 1080p?
Thanks in advance for any advice,
Message was edited by: Nicholas Natteau1

The sequence setting must match the settings of the footage you shot. If you shot 1080p, then they will be 1080p. But what codec? HDV? AVCHD (that you need to convert to ProRes)? DVCPRO HD?
Look in the EASY SETUPS. That is where you find the settings. Although FCP will adjust them automatically when you add the first clip.

Unchecked "Always Ask" option of Change Sequence Settings box

Accidentally unchecked the "Always Ask" option in the Change Sequence Settings box (Shown at 56 seconds of this video https://www.video2brain.com/en/lessons/changing-a-sequence-to-match-a-clip) and I need it back. I need Premiere to change the sequence settings to match the clips I put onto the timeline on its own every time.
I've contacted Adobe before about resolving this issue but they have failed to get back to me. Missing the crap out of Final Cut right about now.

I have tried that, no luck. I found I can create a matching sequence by dragging a clip down to the new sequence option but it would still be much more convenient if I could have that option box pop up each time again.

Export movie shrinks size of source clips

I have a project that consists of 720X480 AVI's (24bit/uncompressed) I got it to keep the high quality by using the export/movie function as an uncompressed AVI (Microsoft AVI, no compression, 720X480, D1/DV NTSC 0.9)
The output is high resolution, which I need but the size of the video is smaller than the original. it still keeps the 720X480 size of the whole video but it's shrinks the clips. I suspect it's due to the pixel size setting. I do not get good (high quality) results by setting it at square pixels (1.0). Any suggestions?
Is there something I'm missing?

Please provide
these details to help us help you.

What is the best way to match clip and sequence settings for real-time editing?

I am a long time FCP user and trying to make the After Effects workflow a little smoother by utilizing the Adobe suite.
One of the most valuable things I miss about FCP is that when I drop a clip in a blank sequence (no matter what the settings of the seq) it will ask if I want to match the settings of the clip. This ensures that no rendering is required to quickly edit the video in real-time.
Is there a plugin or function in Premiere CS4 that I am missing that will afford me this feature? Currently i am doing everything I can to match the clip settings when creating a sequence, but sadly i'm still having to render the timeline to preview the edit.
lh

And in CS4, if there is not a matching Preset, you can choose the Desktop Preset, which will allow you to customize nearly every attribute to match your source footage. The name is a bit of a misnomer, but has been around for a long time. I would have called it the "Custom Preset," but Adobe never called.
Good luck,
Hunt
PS - I just learned something new about CS5 from Curt, because of your question - thanks!

Premiere Pro CS6 switching sequence settings from previously edited video clips

When importing my video clips into Premiere Pro, which are currently set at 1920 x 1080 both from the video clip and sequence settings, it switches to 720 x 480 (says file has mismatch - keep or change settings, I've done both results the same) when I export and when I put clip on timeline it switches it to 1440 x 1020. The video clips were done on a earlier version of Premiere Pro at another facility, where we put the audio and video together to make a complete video clip We shot the footage using a Canon DSLR at 24 ups and are MOV files, done on a Mac
If anyone else has had this problem and found a solution, plese pass on.
Carl A.

Take your imported footage and create the sequence by dropping one of the video files on to the "New Item" button.
If your footage is actually showing in the project panel as 1920X1080, the sequence that will be created will match that. Guaranteed.

How avoid stretched image on DVD from HD source clips?

I edited a program in FCP 7.0 using HD footage from my Sony Handycam HDR-XR520. I exported to Compressor and followed the steps Shane sent in Shane's Stock Answer #42 on how to author a DVD. Thanks, Shane, I made the DVD. But the end images are all somewhat stretched out horizontally. Where did I go wrong? Where do I code this footage to come out in HD ratio but not be unnaturally stretched?
Thanks, Duncan

David, Thanks for your specific directions.
1. My Sony HD camera specs say its system is 1080/60i. The FCP Browser lists the Frame Size of the imported clips as 1440 x 1080.
2. Here I think I owe you and Shane an apology. I see that in the Browser, the Frame Size of my edited Sequence of these clips is listed as only 720 x 480. In my upgrade to FCP7 I had assumed that FCP recognized the frame size of the HD clips I was importing and would process them accordingly. But it looks like I needed to first specify the Sequence Settings. Is that true? Would it make a difference? If so, what should I set for Frame Size, Aspect Ratio, Pixel Aspect Ratio, Field Dominance? Should I check Anamorphic 16:9?
3. FYI, despite FCP describing the ratio of the Sequence as 720 x 480, the ratio of the images still appears to be 16:9.
4. I did as you directed and exported my edited Sequence as a QT Movie Self-Contained and looked at it. It was NOT distorted -- it looked just right. Cmnd-I shows the ratio to be 720 x 480, but it displays the 16:9 ratio images in a letterbox fashion.
5. If the settings in FCP need to be changed, can I do that globally or do I need to reedit the program?
6. If I simply took the Self Contained QT movie into Compressor and DVD SP, would the quality be as good as if I started with the right settings?
With lots of thanks, Duncan

Exporting Images and Clipping Paths

I ran into a problem exporting images the was previously reported by Ruvan Fernando on Jan 25, 2006, but nobody had responded, so I'm trying again...
I'm using the SDK to open images and then save them back out with different colorspaces, resolution, etc. When I have an image that has a clipping path in it, when it's saved, the clipping path is missing.
I am copying all the source image attributes to the destination image attributes.
Any help would be appreciated.

I tried dragging it, and it gave the original version.
At Share there are; Print, Email, Desktop, HomePage, .Mac Slides, Order prints, Send to iDVD, Burn Disk, Export
I tried Desktop and it put the current image do my wallpaper.

Preserving Source Clip Information Upon Export In Premiere

Is there a way to export clips from sequence timeline and preserve source clip metadata?
Example - I have a clip I used warp stabilizer on and I have marked the clip with in/out. Now I would like to export the clip with same clip name and source timecode and hoping there is a setting to do so.
Thanks, Chris

Why doesn't Lightroom 5 always watermark exported images?

I haven't changed the settings, but last time I tried to export images with a watermark the images appeared in the output folder without watermarks.
The problem has occured before, but corrected itself when I re-exported the images. This time Lightroom is steadfastly ignoring the instruction to add a watermark.
Any clues, why this happens?
Some of my jpegs are zero length when exported, is there a fix for this, other than to export them again?
I can fix the problem by using LR4.4, but why isn't LR5 working properly?
Thanks in advance,
Steve

Most likely you simply ise an unsupported operating system. We really can't know. You have not provided any relevant info.

System Image Utility always fails, why?

Hi everyone,
on my clean and fresh install of 10.7.4 Server the System Image Utility always fails to create an image. I want to create a NetInstall image and have put the OS X Lion Installer in /Applications. I can select it in SIU and choose to create a NetInstall image. It asks for the admin pw and always presents an error at the very end: Image creation failed. An unknown error has occured.
If I select to create a NetBoot image instead it fails directly after clicking on the Create button with this slightly different message: Image creation failed. An error has occured. At least it’s no unknown error…
Any ideas what might be causing this? I have succesfully created NetInstall images with 10.6 Server and 10.8 Server, but 10.7 Server somehow won’t play nice.
Thanks
Björn

Hi Brian,
I first deleted the Installer and redownloaded it from the App Store, just to make sure there was no problem with it. Even though I now have the 10.7.4 Installer (had 10.7.0 before) nothing has changed. I then went on to set the log level as suggested. I now get different errors based on the chosen log level.
Log level set to debug:
Image creation failed.
*** -[__NSArrayM insertObject:atIndex:]: object cannot be nil
Log level set to verbose:
Image creation failed.
An unknown error has occurred.
I did not see anything helpful in the logs unfortunately. The only noticeable thing mentioned was: Failed to create image from installer media.
Any additional ideas? I will attach both logs here, just in case.

Why is my QuickTime Pro exporting image sequences in the wrong order?

I am making timelapse films and using QuickTime Pro to export the images as a movie file. I have all the images in a folder named numericaly. I go file>import image sequence click on the first image and import. The images are in the correct order in the source folder I have also checked the resource files under show movie properties and they are in the correct order there. I then export as a QuickTime movie file at 1080p H.264 the film is stepping and the frames are out of sequence in the eported movie file. Why is this? Has anyone come across this before?

Is there anything else I could try.
Not sure. I would likely test an x264 export of the image sequence from QT 7 Pro or MPEG Streamclip (or from HandBrake if your system is not configured with the x264 codec) and see if the result was any better. This is not a problem I run into very often and, even then, the files were sent to me with no real indication of how they were originally encoded.
Or do you know how I can analise the exported file?
Not really... but it would be nice to have a tool which indicated the current frame type and listed pointers to frames/stacks of frames used for rendering reference.

HT3130 trying to export a 4 minute video to desktop. Only 1:08 seconds exports. I've tried other clips and they all cut at 1:08. Used different exports like Quicktime with the same results.

Good to hear that you've had some success with the import.
I tried 3 times to do it before I finally changed it to H.264, and it worked on the first try. The quality of the compression was terrible with those settings compared to my standard settings, but I'm just glad it worked.
Rather than Share>Export using QuickTime and then choosing your own settings for H.264, you may get a better result if you simply use the Share>Export Movie option. Alternatively, use the Share>Media Browser option (as I mentioned in my earlier post). You will be presented with a range of sizes to choose from. Depending on your target, it's usually best to select the highest size available, such as Large, HD 720p or HD 1080p. However, for producing a DVD it's best to not go beyond the HD 720p size, as the DVD will be downscaled during encoding to Standard Definition in the appropriate size for either PAL or NTSC.
In my experience, both these options (Export Movie or Media Browser) produce a video file of excellent quality. The files will be in H.264 format and will have the file extension .mov or .m4v depending on the size of the export. I'm assuming that your camera records HD video in AVCHD format.
These files work well with iDVD (or other DVD authoring programs). The export process for the presets is optimised by Apple to produce high quality video files at a reasonable file size. So, selecting a preset may give you a much better result. Choosing your own H.264 settings when using the "Export using QuickTime" method could be why "the compression was terrible". You may have selected a data (bit) rate that was too low. There is always a trade-off between quality and file size when compressing video.
So, to summarise, try one of the Apple presets using either Share>Export Movie or Share>Media Browser.

Exported image is always stretched... source clips 1080p, sequence settings 720p.
