Question on wide screen picture

I run Itunes on a Pentium D Gateway PC with a 21" wide screen LCD monitor. The monitor can also be used as a HDTV. I have downloaded somed episodes of Battlestar Galactica and the Stargate shows. When I view them I select fit to screen and it fills my screen with an excellant picture. Is Itunes really giving me a wide screen picture or is it just doing a good job of making a regular 4:3 picture look good?

Good question! Wish I had a monitor like yours~!

Wide screen pictures

On my apple Tv viewing pictures from the Iphone 4s are full wide screen on phone but streaming on tv black bars are left and right . even if i view them from the pc on apple tv is there a setting somewhere ? my videos play perfect to fit the tv but pictures look like the above instead of below like advertised...
Thanks

If the advertisement shows a photo full screen using airplay, then this is because the photo has an aspect ratio of 16:9 to begin with. I crop all my photos to 16:9 because I know they work with the TV, when I airplay them from my iPhone or iPad they fill the screen as you suggest.
The pictures that the iPhone takes are not widescreen as you suggest, they are 4:3. Take careful note of the detail around the edges of the photograph and rotate your phone, you will see that when the photo fills the phone screen it actually crops the bottom of the pictures off.

Question about wide-screen monitor on Solaris x86

I have Solaris x86, version 10/2009 installed.
It works fine with any wide-screen monitor I plug in.
But when I use this 3rd party CAD/CAM software, any round
circle is being displayed as an oval shape. I believe that's because
on the wide-screen monitor, the width of the monitor is longer than the height.
Does anyone know if there's a setting to change so that I can view circles as true round circles instead of an oval shape? Thanks.

OK, I know what the problem is now.
But I need to change the resolution settings. Does anyone know how to change it on x86, version 10/2009?
I recall it being something like "kdmconfig"

i have the latest ipod touch 64 and i install the latest update 4os ,when i use my ipod to see the pictures , its never shows in wide screen like before , i turn the ipod many times but resulgt is the same...i don't like that ???any solution..please help

Did you check if the screen orientation is turned off? Do this over the app switcher bar, flick one to the left, and there is the button with the lock.
And kill the Photo app when its not running - quit it, double-home, tap&hold on the icon and press the "-" badge.

Sharing NTSC Wide Screen When Shooting and Editing in 1440 Question

I render as NTSC DVD Wide Screen the instructional videos I shoot in 1440. I do this so that I can then use Handbrake to create MP4 Chapters which I think uplod to S3 and build chapter playlists which my users find very valuable. The problem that I am looking for a solution to is this.
The NTSC Wide Screen is only 720 px wide which scrunches the video. It looks so much better in 1440 then 720. It seems the only way to get to 1440 is to render as an MPEG but then I lose the chapter markers. So I know (or so I've been told) that I can render in AVI and preserve the chpater markers, but that takes 10 hours or so and the file size is just astronoimically large. Is there a way to create a 1440 (minimum) width DVD?
Thanks in Advance,
Dan

Premiere Elements should output a widescreen DVD from a project set up for widescreen. You do have your project settings set to 1440x1080 AVCHD video, right?
Have you checked the DVD files it outputs BEFORE you apply Handbrake to it? It could be that Handbrake is changing the pixel aspect ratio?
Try using Share/Computer/AVI with a DV preset to output your 1440x1080 movie as standard definition video. Does it produce a widescreen video? (Again, it's vital that your original project be set up to match your original video specs in order for these tools to work!)

Unable to get HD Wide Screen 16:9 to fill the screen on TV.

12/20/08
Problem: I am not able to get HD Wide Screen 16:9 to fill the screen on TV. Leaves dark bands on the top and bottom of picture.
What I'm working with: Mac Pro Quad-Core Intel Xeon Processors with 2GB Memory soon to be 6GB & 30 inch screen. QuickTime Pro 7.5.5, Final Cut Express 4.0.1, and iDVD, 7.0.2.
New JVC, GZ-HD3U camcorder with QuickTime conversion software, recently updated, provided by JVC with the camera to change native TOD. files created in the camcorder to native MPEG2 files in Quicktime at a size of 1920 x 1080.
Two TV's, one Wide Screen HD and the other standard screen. I have changed the TV aspect rations back and forth from 4:3 to 16:9 and the only thing that changes is the size of the black bands on the top and bottom of the screen. The black spaces are larger in 16:9, making the picture appear squeezed.
I am using RW DVD discs so I can continue to try different setups without wasting discs and so far I have tried about 12 different arrangements. Two methods work but they are export conversions to a 4:3 aspect ratio and 720X480DV/DVCPRO-NTSC. Certainly this is a work around, but doing this looses the Wide Screen HD effects provided by the original JVC movies.
When I import the clips, and I've tried a number of different imports from QuickTime to Final Cut Express, I make sure that the Sequence set up matches or comes as close as possible to the imported clips. I've tried exporting them from FCE without changes and I have exported them using QuickTime to change them to different formats using nearly everything available trying to get the clips or sequences ready to import to iDVD.
In iDVD I have set up using both aspect ratios and it appears as thought setting up in 16:9 makes the spaces above and below even larger on TV. In fact it creates these spaces above and below even on the 720X480DV/DVCPRO-NTSC clips that work just fine on the 4:3 aspect ratio settings on the same TV.
If anyone has overcome this problem, I would greatly appreciate your guidance. So far, I've spent over a 100 hours on it to no avail.
Larry

Tom, I don't know where to go in FCE to create a AVCHD AIC Sequence. I can find the
1920X1080i60 in the Sequence format without any problem. And in QT don't know where to select AIC but I select Apple Intermediate Codec, and under compressor I select HDV 1080i interlaced frame rate 29.97. Under Export Size Settings I don't know rather to select 1920 x 1080 HD or HD 1920 x 1080 16:9 and what about preserve aspect ratio using and Deinterlace Source Video?
Part two: When I create a Sequence in FCE with the 1920X1080i60 designation, and then import a QT HD 1920X1080 16:9 Intermediate Codec clip into a bin and then open the clip in that sequence I'm asked if I want to match the clip to the sequence and if I don't I have rendering. If I match them the rendering, as you said, goes away. However, I notice that when I check out the Item Properties on them after the above process, the Aspect ratio in the clip and Sequence, suddenly becomes HD 1440x1080. Is this normal?

Change of ratio from 4 x 3 to 16 x 9 wide screen..

Change of ratio from 4 x 3 to 16 x 9 wide screen.. in FCX pro
Can anybody please help me, who has prior knowledge of changing the ratio from 4 x 3 to 16.9 widescreen that I have already imported.. I have tried everything in the preferences.. Before I imported it, and after, however it is not working. It’s been imported from a FlashCARD… Thank you in anticipation

Hello once again Tom, sorry for the inconvenience, I'm quite new to this Final Cut Pro as you can tell. However here is information you requested I hope I got it right for you.
I will do my best to explain as I go on. I'm using a Canon XL2 broadcast camera which is capable of shooting in 9 x 6 and 4 x 3. It is a DV tape camera and additional to that I have on the back a datavideo (DN 60) flash card recorder. I do believe that the flash card recorder records in 16 x 9, so I am told by the distributors. I'm also told by the same distributors that for some reason Final Cut Pro X does not recognise the 16 x 9 flag, however Adobe, Sony Vegas etc they do recognise it and allow you to change the ratio size in their software. When I use the tape from the camera it exports into Final Cut Pro X as 16 x 9, so I will thought that the flash card recorder would record in the same format.
I can tell by the size of the clip in the viewfinder that it is not 16 x 9 when I import it in, I also make a quick 10 second movie and set that as my master file, no matter what I use to import it in the preferences it still won't stretch to widescreen, or in fact anything else I do as I send it to a master file, anything else than this I am at a loss, not sure what to do. I hope the picture of the move inspector is what you require also including the picture to let you see the size in reference.

How to send wide-screen slideshow to iDVD?

Hi there,
is there a way to create a wide-screen slideshow in iPhoto and send it unaltered to iDVD? Whatever I try, it stubbornly wants to reformat the slideshow with a 4/3 aspect ratio.
Any hints would be very much appreciated, and yes, I do have Photo2Movie, but I'm interested whether it's possible from iPhoto
Cheers Martin

Martin:
How are you creating the slideshow in iPhoto? Did you crop the photos to the 16:9 ratio before creating the slideshow? That's what I did and then did the Share to iDVD. I made sure I had a widescreen theme and that iDVD was set to widescreen under the Project menu.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

LR and Wide Screen Monitors

Probably a simple question so kindly bear with me on this one. I have the opportunity of picking up a wide screen monitor in the next couple of days at a reasonable price - 19" 1440 x 900. My question, how will LR appear on this size monitor - will it fill the screen or will I experience black banding at the top and bottom? I like the idea of the further width to increase the panels but hate banding even on TV

Hi Alan
I have the Dell 2407 monitor (1920 x 1200) which has the same aspect ratio (1:1.6) as your proposed monitor. I find this monitor "perfect" for LR - it looks like LR was designed with this aspect ratio in mind (consider that most digital cameras have a 1:1.5 aspect ratio).
If you hide the left and right panels then you will only have a small "black band" on the left and right of the image. In all other situations this screen will be well utilized.

Mov to avi program, sound video import sync problem CS4, creating wide screen

I am using Premiere Pro CS4. I have edited for years on and off, most often I am on set. I just need to set this up right to work.
I have mov footage, and used Pazera to convert it to avi. It does not look right. Here are my convert questions.
1. is Pazera an ok convert program, or do you have another free, non watermark, high quality program you recommend..?
2. What is the best convert video and audio to use. Right now I have it as auto and it was awful.
3. As well I want to use a 1 to 1 ratio or lose the least info, yet it does not seem too have it. It does have, "copy original video stream" is that 1:1...? otherwise it has xvid, divx, mpeg4, wmv...
4. what is best to put for resolution, it has HD1080, HD720 HD489, and a bunch of others
1. When I did make a test avi and imported it into Premiere Pro, it does not play properly. The audio runs in realtime and the video skips forward out of sync by about 10x faster. Yet when I play the file in media player, it plays normal. Is this a setting within Premiere Pro, a problem with importing, or the original footage..?
1. As well, I have some footage with a frigin time code burn window at the bottom, and may want to grab some footage. Is there a way to wide screen the image and cut out the bottom time code, if yes, let me know step by step...
THANKS TO ALL IN ADVANCE

Why my screen picture changes every time I open my computer even if I've made a choice for a screen picture

Hi,
I've just bought (September 13 2013) an Mac Pro retina screen 15 inch. and I have a problem with my screen picture. Even if I've made a choice for my screen desk without indicating to change it, each time I opened my computer the screen changes. It's not normal and I want to know why I have that problem.
Many thanks
