How do I get clips resized for youtube without extra black borders?

Hi Ya,
I have some concert footage that I edited in FCP (some in 4.3, some in 16.9) that I have montaged together to form a "sampler" of what the act in question have done over the years. I want to put this on youtube, which needs a 320x240 frame size so I created a 320x240 sequence, added my montage to this, resized the clip til I was happy and exported. No matter what setting I use to export, I seem to end up with a box that has black borders round the movie instead of the movie filling the 320x240 frame, except when I DON"T specify 320x240 as an export size, in which case I get a movie that looks ok but it's 576x520! (i'm UK based so the 4.3 footage was this size??)
Any suggestions?
Many Thanks
Gareth

Hi
this had me stumped for a long time, but i think whats happening is that the quicktime movie player window defaults to a bigger size than 320 x 240, so it shows the movie at its correct sizer in a bigger window. if you resize the window the black sidebars go away. the movie properties say the movie is the correct size, so it should be fine. if you embed it in an html page it plays correctly as well.

  • How to make a custom thumbnail for Youtube (ie. with text, borders, etc)

    Hi there,
    I'm trying to make a custom thumbnail of a video i want to create for Youtube.
    Please help.
    Mikayla

    Mikayla
    What version of Premiere Elements do you have and on what computer operating system is it running?
    Could you clarify what you want to do...is what is described in this YouTube article what you want to do?
    Video thumbnails - YouTube Help
    You say that you are "trying to make a custom thumbnail of a video.....". Does that mean that you want to
    take a freeze frame from the video as your thumbnail?''
    What kind of a project is this thumbnail to be use for HD 1920 x 1080 or 1280 x 720 or SD?

  • How do I get a receipt for final cut x

    How do I get a receipt for final cut x?  I paid for it to use at work and I cant claim the cost back unless I have a receipt.  Apple cant claim it is an app for personal use when they are pitching this software for professional editing

    Did you make the purchase? They should have sent you an email when you purchased it to confirm the transaction or something. That should include some sort of receipt.
    It is for personal use because not only businesses use it, individuals use it too for independent YouTube channels, etc.

  • I just got the mid 2011 macbook air and it does not have ilife or iPhoto on it...isnt it supposed to come with it? and if it does then how do i get it on the mac without having to pay for it in the app store?

    I just got a macbook air and i thought that it was supposed to come with ilife already installed? But there is not ilife apps...how do i get  it on the laptop without having to buy them all from the app store if it was supposed to come with it?

    From the iPhoto Licence:
    3. Transfer.
    A. Apple Software obtained from the Mac App Store is not transferable. If you sell your Apple-branded hardware to a third party, you must remove the Apple Software from the Apple-branded hardware before doing so.
    B. For any preinstalled Apple Software, you may make a one-time permanent transfer of all of your license rights to the Apple Software (in its original form as provided by Apple) to another party, provided that: the Apple Software is transferred together with your Apple-branded hardware; (ii) the transfer must include all of the Apple Software, including all its component parts, printed materials and this License; (iii) you do not retain any copies of the Apple Software, full or partial, including copies stored on a computer or other storage device; (iv) you have not associated the Apple Software with your Mac App Store account as set forth in Section 2B; and (v) the party receiving the Apple Software reads and agrees to accept the terms and conditions of this License.
    If the previous owner accepted the preinstalled software (iPhoto, etc) to the AppleID, it cannot be passed on to a new owner. Even if the previous owed would use her or his Applied to install it for you, you would never be able to reinstall it or to update it.
    In that case buy your own copies of the software.

  • How can I get safe internet for protect my phone and PC

    How can I get safe internet for protect my phone and PC. l lose all internet account I've three year. i lose my phone all app for a day even I safe all informating and apps in ICloud  but I lose all my phone information . Like I have new phone and I do not have all my date . For new phone i can not use over 10 apps for my phone

    You can't. But if you backed up your computer prior to wiping it out, you should be able to restore your iTunes library, contacts, photos, etc. from that backup. Once you do, you can set the phone up again and just sync everything from your library back to it.
    If you didn't back the computer up either, you can transfer items purchased on the phone into iTunes, and if you set up at least one contact in whatever application you sync your contacts to on the computer, it will offer to merge the address books on the first sync, saving those.  Any media you'd acquired from sources other than the iTunes store will have to be re-downloaded from the source or re-ripped.
    The iPhone is NOT a backup device.

  • How do I get more memory for my Macbook Pro Spring 2010 13-inch with 2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo?

    How do I get more memory for my Macbook Pro spring 2010 13-inch with 2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo. Apple says no memory currently available for that model. I have 4 GB memory and 3.99 used. Help!

    Now I'm confused. This is the one Crucial told me to get:

    $45.99
    Also what do you mean that actual memory is 16GB but with Apple it's 8?
    When I go to the "About this Mac" it says Memory 4G 1067 MHz DDR3, then when I go to System Report it says
     Memory Slot
    Bank 0/ DIMM0 2G DDR3 1067 MHZ OK
    Bank 1/ DIMM0 2G DDR3 1067 MHZ OK
    Sorry I'm clueless. Just don't want to buy something that messes up my machine more than it already is.
    The Crucial site appears to have recommended the correct spec 4gB RAM stick for your model. Please note that you will need to remove the existing sticks of RAM to install new, so you will need 2x4gB to get to 8gB.
    When your model of computer was designed/built, it was tested with readily available 2x4gB (8gB). After release RAM retailers have tested it with higher amounts, and Apple didn't update their quoted specs.

  • How can I get a refund for the u2 album that Apple charged me for

    I have just been charged £27.99 for the U2 album that I did not want. How do I get a refund for this. I can't stand U2!!

    £27.99 for the album ? If you are referring to The Songs Of Innocence album (£7.99) then that was given free to everyone three months ago, and was free until 13th October - you are sure that you've been charged, it's not a temporary store holding charge ? The purchase price should show on your account's purchase history : See your purchase history in the iTunes Store - or http://reportaproblem.apple.com on your iPad.
    If you have been charged for the album but you didn't buy it then try contacting iTunes Support via the above 'report a problem' link.

  • How can I get a service for new powerbook 15" 1.67 screen?

    I would like to know how I can get a service for my brand new PB15" screen.
    Today I have read an message on the Korean apple forum that New unit of 15" 1.67 doesn't have any line problem.
    So, I really want to know whether it is true or not.
    If it is, Can I get an exchange for my new 15" 1.67 in India?
    Could you help me Apple?
    I bought it in Korea 15,Nov, 2005 and Now I am in Mumbai India.
    There is a apple international Mumbai in India.
    I have a 1 year world worranty.
    If the new unit doesn't have any line problem, It means that mine has a problem.
    Now I am falling in love with powerbook 15" 1.67 which is my first Mac in my life except line problem.
    How can I get a service for it.
    Please Help me.

    Yes I have read of other reports from people saying theirs are fine. I am really looking forward to purchashing one but I do not want to take a 2000 dollar chance that I might end up with a bad screen. I am still waiting for apple to make an announcement. I have also begun seing reports on some "news like" websites but not really the major ones.

  • HT201318 How do I get a refund for extra iCloud storage I bought but don't need.  I can't figure it out

    How do I get a refund for extra iCloud storage I just bought? I can't figure it out

    I was able to get a refund processed for storage I accidentally purchased by calling the above number ^^.
    It did take me three calls because the system is fully automated and it was difficult speaking an answer to any of the automated questions that would actually get me to a live person - the first time I was automatically hung up on for not replying; the second time I couldn't get past the automated system.  The third time I was finally transferred to a live person; and after being transferred to a second live person it took about 20 minutes to get the refund processed.  I'm hoping it goes through and will be watching my credit card statement closely for the next week.  Apple will call me back a week from today to ensure the refund was processed.
