How I can correct the aspect ratio?

Hi, I hope you can help me.
I want to resize a 1920x1080 to 1440x1080 video, how I can correct the aspect ratio of HD video without the black bars appear above and below?

The original image is stretched horizontally and I want to fix this by resizing the video output to fill the full frame (4:3) without the lines that appear above and below, Premiere is not allowing me this.
I can do it using video converters but the results do not convince me, do not make the 4 processor cores and cause loss of frames in the video.
So I prefer to edit and convert directly into Premiere.
(I used google translator to write this)

This is an unfinished std. def video hence this issue I ran into which is just a fun video for my youth group kids I teach at my church. I am editing it in final cut pro 7 and if you see at about 35 seconds the aspect ratio changes whatever its doing with the picture there.
I have never ran into this problem before so I don't know if its something I may have selected on the camera accidentally or done wrong in FCP but I shot all the video the same day of course for this event of ours and all the other video is fine an in 16:9 or what was called the "letterbox" option on my Panasonic DVX100B.
Please help me correct it if you know how. Thank you very much in advance.

I can't watch the video as well. Not quite sure what trouble your having
Aspect ratios can be tricky and there are a few spots you can mess them up. First I would check to make sure that your sequence settings are the same aspect ratio as your original footage. I would also make sure your exporting with the correct aspect ratio as well. (If you’re using the quicktime conversion option. Sometimes depending on your settings options like 16:9 are not turned on by default and you need to check them before exporting.)
Also if you can change the aspect ratio in FCP regardless of your sequence's aspect ratio is. Under your distort tab there is a aspect ratio option. +33 will make your footage 4:3 and -33 will make your footage anamorphic. However this will only stretch your footage. This method is only useful for when you can to place 4:3 footage into a 16:9 sequence without it appearing distorted and stretched

Can I change the size of my enhanced Podcast or correct the aspect ratio

I would like to be able to embed pictures in a Podcast that are 480x360. As a worst case, I would like them to be 320x240. Is this possible?
When I open my .m4a or .m4b in QuickTime I see that I can adjust the aspect ratio or size. However, as far as I can determine, QuickTime will not let me save the change unless I save into a format other than m4a or m4b.
Saving as a mov eliminates the chapter control which I want to keep.
Does anyone know of a way to fix this limitation?
I'd accept 480x480 if that were possible too!
Thanks!

Follow up information:
The aspect ratio appears correct in a video iPod or via the iTunes interface. However, if the same file is played via QuickTime then the aspect ratio is forced to a square.
The overall intent is to view the enhanced PodCast full screen which can be done via QuickTime. The "Now Playing" window in iTunes is too small (Clicking on it to bring up the current slide does not work as the slide is not updated concurrently with the "Now Playing" window.

How do I change the aspect ratio of source video in the event library?

I’ve imported video to iMovie 08 from a Canon Mini DV MD235 video camera. The video is recorded in widescreen format and plays back in widescreen when viewed from the iMovie event library (prior to doing any video editing). However, when I delete rejected frames from any particular video clip in the event library the video clip is automatically pillarboxed (i.e. switched from widescreen to 4:3 format). This squashes the video horizontally, stretches it vertically and leaves vertical black bars to the left and right of the video during playback. This automatic change in aspect ratio is occurring to the source video in the event library.
I’d be grateful for any help / advice on how I can convert the edited clips back to widescreen aspect ratio, so they display in the *event library* as they did when first imported into iMovie.

I don’t really want to clog up my hard drive with unwanted video and it’s easier to edit it from within iMovie.
Have you considered manually importing only portions of the clips you actually plan to use? Or, if you must import the entire clip, have you considered trimming externally in an application like MPEG Streamclip which will allow you to set frame level in/out points and then perform a "Save As..." operation that stores the select range of frames to an MOV file container retaining the proper flag?
Is there anything I can do from within iMovie to activate the 16:9 setting for these as yet unedited clips, so the same pillarboxing doesn’t happen?
Not sure what you mean by "unedited" here. If the files have been destructively split, the flag is gone and there is nothing you can do about it but re-compress. If you mean they are imported but as of yet whole and still contain their flags, then you have two options. The first is to edit non-destrctively within iMovie '08 and the second would be to do the trimming externally.
This second option is really fairly simple. Just close iMovie '08. Open MPEG Streamclip and load a clip you want to trim. Set your in and pout points, select the "Save As..." option, and store the files in the original Events folder with a new name. I would also recommend you perform these trims in their original time sequence so the "creation" date time groups (Finder attributes) are in time order also. When done with the loaded clip either delete it from the "Event" folder or move it to an archival location. When done with the last clip, close MPEG Streamclip, delete the Cache and Thumbnail folders from the Event folder, open iMovie '08 again, and go get a cup of coffee or tea while the files are re-thumbnailing. DO NOT DO THIS TO ANY EVENT WHICH CONTAINS FILES ALREADY USED IN ANY PROJECT. (I.e., this must be done before you start the actual project editing process.)
It seems odd to me that iMovie is doing this.
I suspect that as the application was originally written as an NLE, non-destructive, "by reference" application, the writers/updaters "overlooked" this facet when adding a "destructive" routine and did not provide for checks of this flag nor provide for copying it re-written segments.

How do I change the aspect ratio on Final Cut Pro X?

Whenever I upload new media (regardless of what ratio it was filmed in) it plays in letterbox format. I would like to change the aspect ratio to 16:9. Thanks.

Please open the clip in the QT player and post a screen shot of the movie inspector. Post a screen **** of what you're seeing in the viewer.
You keep saying upload, do you mean import?

How do i change the aspect ratio??

Hey guys, I'm having a big problem. I'm an intern working for http://www.bartlettinteractive.com, and I've been editing a video in their copy of final cut express. The footage is shot with two different cameras, one is mine and the other is his, mine shoots in HD, and I imported it as 960 x 540 video. The other shot in 720 x 480. Finally we used a bunch of photos shot with a camera at something like 1600 x 1200. My problem is that now, after I've basically finished the video, my boss wants me to export into 16:9 when the entire time the canvas has been showing the video in 4:3 because of the way the flash player on their website is set up. Can someone please help me with changing the entire video's aspect ratio?

Hi(Bonjour)!
You don't need to.
You can check the sequence's anamorphic property in browser.
Or you can create an anamorphic DV sequence, insert your edited sequence into it (get the squashed result) and export the movie as self contained one. But it will be encoded to DV NTSC. It's better to export with quicktime conversion when going with flash.

How to you fix the aspect ratio for DV imports

DV format is 720x480 but designed for rectangular pixel to preserve 3:2 aspect ratio.
Why does QT not play those files with the proper aspect ratio?
What is the recommended setting to export DV into H264 to keep the 3:2 aspect ratio?

How do you change the aspect ratio of a video from 4:3 to 16:9?

in final cut pro x

Aspect ratio is set automatically. But, there are times when someone messed something up in a clip before you got it. I recently had that happen, 16:9 HD was squashed to 4:3 SD, but you can deal with that easily. You can change it with the Transform > Scale > X parameter. In my specific case, I set Scale X parameter to 134% and was done with it.

How can I change the aspect ratio of an image display

I am snapping a sequence of images and using imgPlot to diplay the images. However, due to my camera specifications [it's a Pulnix 9701 with Pixel Size 11.6μm (H) X 13.3μm (V)], the image I get displayed is elongated in the horizontal direction, i.e. if I snap an image of a square, I get a rectangle on my computer display.
How can I change the aspect ratio of the display on my computer? The only parameters I have seen so far just control what portion of the image is acquired or diplayed, but none actually changes the aspect ratio.
Thanks in advance for any help.

If you are using an analog camera, you can set the aspect ratio in MAX. This will correct for non-square pixels.
If you are using a digital camera, I don't think there is a way to fix it during acquisition. You could resample the image to correct the ratios, but that would be a slow, time consuming process.
One other possibility is that your computer monitor is in a mode which is not a standard 4x3 configuration. For example 640x480 and 800x600 are 4:3 ratios. 1200x1024 is not, which tends to distort your displayed images.

Setting the aspect ratio of an image

Hi
Is it possible to specify the aspect ratio of an image? I have a bunch of video shots in my library and they all have non-square pixels so would like to "set" their aspect ratio.
Thanks upfront!

IDVD is producing DVDs which chop the edges off my video. I have tried changing the aspect ratio between 4:3 and 16:9 but it hasn't helped. My TV is definitely on the correct settings. How can I solve this?

One way to to put the videos into an iDVD slideshow
and set iDVD's Slideshow preferences to always scale slides to TV Safe Area.
However, some users have reported that the audio quality using this method is lessened. I've not noticed it but then I don't have a good ear when it comes to that sort of thing. If you add more than one video in the same slideshow do not select any transition.

I have an image that I removed from its back ground and I would like to scale the bottom portion of the image because its to wide but not have that effect the top portion of the image which is the correct with. but also keep the aspect ratio correct? how

I have an image that I removed from its back ground and I would like to scale the bottom portion of the image because its to wide but not have that effect the top portion of the image which is the correct width. but also keep the aspect ratio correct, keep it looking as natural as possible (its a piece of jewlery) ? how can I begin to do this.

The area circled in red is to wide (the width) the necklace's width is as wide as the models entire chest. And also the length of the necklace it's to long it should come down to the clevage area on the model/woman.

Everytime I open itunes the cover flow size returns to default. How Can I lock the aspect ratio?

Whenever I shut down my computer and restart it, the aspect ratio of the images in itunes coverflow reset to their default size. How can I keep them where I set them.

I have an issue somewhat like that, except it doesn't happen when I shut down or restart my computer. Mine resets each time I click the green resize button (using an iMac) to minimize iTunes to the mini player. Oddly enough, if I resize the cover flow, switch to a different view (ie. library without cover flow) and then hit the resize button to switch to mini player, upon maximizing iTunes again, I can switch back to the cover flow and it will have stayed the same size. Obviously I'm not going to go through that process each time I want to minimize iTunes to mini player, but when I simply minimize it when in cover flow view, as you mentioned in your post, it resets the aspect ratio each time. Clearly this isn't a massive issue as I'm still able to use all the other functions of iTunes perfectly fine, but I have to admit it is very annoying and has been persistent for the last few hours. Please if you've found a fix let me know, however I noticed you are using Windows 7 so we likely have two completely different issues.

How can I change the aspect ratio

I connected my new Apple TV 2 to an LCD projector (Epson 9300) using a Belkin HDMI-to-DVI cable. The projector supports a variety of resolutions, but the aspect ratio is fixed at 4:3. The picture is therefore stretched vertically. How can I change the aspect ratio on the Apple TV?

How can I change the aspect ratio on the Apple TV?
You can't. The TV device plays content at the encoded aspect ratio. It is up to your viewing device to alter the display aspect if it can. Your primary options are to use a different viewing device capable of multiple aspect ratios, scaling, and/or zoom effects or you could simply letterbox your content when you encode it.
