Removing the black border from exported videos

Ok, basically I'm trying to rip DVD footage and convert it to something playable on an iPod. Nothing too hard getting it ripped and converted and all, but the VOB files didn't break right on the episodes, and I also wanted to edit out the theme from the beginning of EACH episode in the interest of space.
Overall it's working pretty well so far, I've been able to perform all that I needed to do, but when I export I get a wide black border around the video which looks fine now, but will take up a lot of valuable space when reduced to iPod resolution. I've found ways to change the color of the border in FinalCut, but no real way to remove it. Anyone have a way of dealing with this?

Ok, figured out what to do.
If you go to the canvas, hit the box for the borders, tell it to show the wire frame. Click and you can rotate, resize, etc.

  • How do I remove the black border from around my videos?

    I have PE7 on my Dell laptop with Windows 7. I've been editing videos on it probably since January. I just never thought anything of the black border, but recently it's really been bugging me. I tried Googling some answers, but all I found was to switch your camera to 16:9 Widescreen. My JVC Everio GZ-MG555U was already set to that setting. I'm just frustrated & I want to get rid of this border. If anyone knows the answer to this problem, please let me know. I need help!

    Thanks for staying with the troubleshooting. I will stay with this as long as it takes to get the project to a successful conclusion. Let us work through this step by step.
    1. The readout that you give for your JVC video file is consistent with what those .mod widescreen files have been reading out as, that is,
    720 x 480 with a pixel aspect ratio of 0.9091 (standard 4:3) rather than 720 x 480 with a pixel aspect ratio of 1.2121 (widescreen 16:9).
    2. Premiere Elements 7. Start a new project with the project preset of NTSC DV Widescreen.
    3. With Get Media/Files and Folders import your video clip into the project and drag it to the Timeline.
    4. Go to Interpret Footage and, in the Interpret Footage dialog, dot the Conform to: and change the Pixel Aspect Ratio to
    D1/DV NTSC Widescreen 16:9 (1.2).
    5. Right click the Monitor, select Magnification, and make sure that that the setting is "Fit". Now look at the Edit Mode Monitor space. Is the area designated for the video display filled? No black borders? If so, continue. If not, you are going to scale the video to make the fill. It should not take much scaling for this if needed.
    a. Select your video on the Timeline
    b. Open Properties/Motion Panel to reveal Scale. Use the Scale slider to zoom in to fill the monitor space to the minimal degree to achieve that purpose, that is, getting rid of any unfilled space (black borders).
    6.Then export that Timeline to a NTSC DV AVI widescreen file, saving it to the computer desktop.
    Use Share/Computer/DV AVI with Presets: DV NTSC Widescreen
    Check out how your NTSC DV AVI widescreen plays back on Windows Media Player. Nevertheless, continue on....
    7. Go to the YouTube web site and upload your DV NTSC Widescreen there. And, let us know the results.
    We can talk about the upload of your Premiere Elements 7 Timeline with its mod widescreen to YouTube from within Premiere Elements 7 Share/Online/YouTube next if necessary. If you have any problems along the way, stop, let us know the details, and we will work out the problem before continuing with the next steps.
    Thanks.

  • How do I remove the Trial Watermark from my video in premier after I have purchased the full version

    How do I remove the Trial Watermark from my video in premier after I have purchased the full version

    HaywoodBrandon
    Please excuse if you know this already....
    If you have the tryout version of Premiere Elements (any version) and you export with the Adobe watermark, you cannot remove the Adobe watermark from that export, even after purchase of the program.
    As you found out, you can remove the Adobe watermark from the tryout project file (project.prel) after purchase. The classic way (as you have indicated worked for you) is the deletion of the project.prel's rendered files (preview files) in the purchased program. Some, like myself, have found removal of the watermark placed in the project.prel of the tryout could be achieved just importing the project.prel with its watermark into the purchased version (no rendered file deletion by the user).
    Nonetheless, glad to learn that you are moving forward in your Premiere Elements projects. Wishing you many great projects.

  • How do I remove a black border from my 4:3 ratio movie, which only uses 4:3 ratio images?

    Hello,
    I'm using Adobe Premiere Elements 9. I have an audio file from a teleconference call and I am using images exported from a 4:3 PowerPoint presentation to create a video of the presentation. The image files are .tiff files, 960x720. This is the only type of file I am using to create this video.
    I really need to get rid of the large black border which appears on ALL sides (left, right, as well as top and bottom) whenever I export. Exporting as flv, mpg or avi has no change. I also tried .png images, no change. Any ideas??
    Thanks!

    My guess is that the 1280 x 720 was the last Project Preset used, and was still there, when you chose New Project.
    As for your output, will you be outputting an SD (Standard Def), or HD (High-Def) file for uploading?
    Do you ONLY have the TIFF Still Images, or are you mixing in any Video?
    The Frame Size difference, between the 960 x 720, and the 1280 x 720 will cause black borders. The two choices are to use the 1280 x 720 Project, and then use Motion>Scale to increase the Scale of your TIFF's. Note that the Aspect Ratio of those TIFF's does not match the 1280 x 720, so to get rid of ALL black borders, you will Scale up the TIFF, and effectively crop your TIFF's. If there is no margin on your TIFF's, that can be a problem.
    As PrE only supports standard Video Frame Sizes, there will not be one that matches the 960 x 720.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • Black border in exported video

    When I am in presentation mode I see picture in the correct ratio without border. But exported video with same configuration have black border. (Source images have small size then output video.) I need output video without border as in preview...

    it's a simple 2D operation. first you should find out how many pixels the "troubling" black border has, and then set a clip on it. the first idea with resizing is kind of complicated one, i admit:)
    1. find out the size of your image (width, height)
    2. get a clipping bounds (use Graphics.getClipBounds) and store it into Rectangle
    4. check if your image intersects correctly with the clip
    5. if yes, draw/store it with the new size
    protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
        // paint the logo at location logoX, logoY 
        Rectangle clip = g.getClipBounds();
        Rectangle logo = new Rectangle(logoX, logoY, logoWidth, logoHeight); 
        // if the logo is outside the clip, ignore it 
        if (clip.intersects(logo)) {
            g.drawImage(logoImage, logo.x, logo.y, null);
       // paint the rest
    }you could use BufferedImage.getSubimage(x, y, width, height) but that is an expensive operation. the next option is to use repaint(x, y, width, height)

  • How to remove the black line from a stacked canvas at run time???

    Hi All,
    I've developed a stacked canvas within a content canvas, when I run the form the stacked canvas apeared with a black line takes it.
    How to remove this line or how to disappear this line at run time??
    I tried to do this by putting (no line) in tools palette to the line color tool after selecting the black line one and after selecting the stacked canvas another once, but this did not resolve the problem!
    I need something else:
    I put the stacked canvas at detail data block and it didn't appear since I execute query in master data block
    How to appear the stacked canvas directly before executing query in master data block???

    Hi,
    u mean the border line? In stacked canvas property, select contour/outline and set it to none.
    Make sure, the stacked canvas is behind the content canvas in the objectnavigator. Then check your
    properties of the stacked canvas:
    - Position on content canvas
    - size
    - size of clipping
    Set stacked canvas property automatic visible to yes.
    Make sure the stacked canvas is not overlayed by other stacked canvas or items.

  • Removing the Black Border

  • How to remove a black border box that continously tabs to each field automatically till end of web page; restarts to top of page, cannot stop this box. Scroll bar cannot controlled with mouse, returns auto to top of scroll slide, never remaining at bottom

    how to remove a black border box that continously tabs to each field automatically till end of web page; restarts to top of page, cannot stop this box. Scroll bar cannot be controlled with mouse, scroll bar returns automatically to the top of scroll slide every time I move the bar to the bottom of the scale.  Also, there's a rectangular text box (with black background and white text) that is always on the desktop that emulates a typed text, HTML, or cmd function.

    The first two problems (box cycling from element to element on page, scroll bar returning to top) can be caused by a stuck (or defective) Tab key on the keyboard. Such damage can be caused by a liquid spill; just one tiny droplet is enough to short a wafer switch under one key.
    The last issue (black box, white text - sounds sorta like a debugger window) I haven't seen, but could be caused by something similar.
    To check for that, try using a different keyboard. If you're using a wireless keyboard, turn it off and see if the oddities stop.

  • I have a black border around my video and I would like it to be full screeen

    I am running Premier Elements 10 on a PC and I am getting a black boarder around the video and I have rendered it multiple ways.   Is there a way to get it gone?  This is the link for youtube.  HCC 2014 video Final - YouTube
    Thank you

    Answers in CAPS.  But from playing with the file, it does not appear that I can get rid of the black border.   I would have to start again from scratch.    I tried a FV4 file format and a AVCHD.mp4 format and they both have black borders.   Any other suggestions on how to get rid of the border, or is it impossible at this point.

    created by A.T. Romano in Premiere Elements - View the full discussionBruceKeenan Thank you for the reply with a lot of important details. With a 99.9999% certainty, I believe you issue is thata. you used 4:3 project settings for 16:9 source mediab. when you imported that 16:9 source media you used it as is without scalingit to get rid of the black border at the top and bottom of the frame caused by the 16:9 source ina 4:3 project. Apparently when you opened the new project, you accepted the default which is NTSC DV Standard 4:3 insteadof changing that to the project preset that would best match the properties of your source 16:9. For you to check out... a. Open a new project and, in the new project dialog, click on change settings, followed bychanging the project preset toNTSCDSLR1080pDSLR [email protected]   
    I OPENED A NEW PROJECT AND THE STANDARD SET WAS NTSC-DV-STANDARD-48kHz WHICH IS MY PROBLEM AS YOU POINTED OUT.    
     b. If you really want a F4V file HD, thenShareComputerAdobe Flash Videowith Presets = F4V - HD1080p (Flash 9 and Higher) If you want a MPEG2 file (SD), thenShareComputerMPEGSwith Presets = NTSC DVD Widescreen If you want a MPEG2 file (HD), thenShareComputerMPEG2with Presets = HDTV 1080p 29.97 High Quality If you want to explore with an AVCHD.mp4 file (HD), thenShareComputerAVCHDwith Presets =  MP4 - H.264 1920 x 1080p30 Lots to explore. And, there should be no black borders anywhere. If any questions or needclarification, please do not hesitate to ask. Thank you. ATR Please note that the Adobe Forums do not accept email attachments.

  • How to get rid of the black border around the artboard

    Hopefully my last question for tonight.
    I need to get rid of the black border around the artboard. The two images show my drawing lined up with the art board and then inside the artboard. The dark gray is not the artboard.
    As you see, the artboard has a black border. I need to get rid of it. It shows up in my project when my color key is green. The black won't go to transparent.
    So how-to get rid of the border? Thanks
    ***Update***
    I figured it out. View > Hide Artboards. Maybe this will help someone. Doesn't change the fact my spider looks like a tick:)

  • In iPhoto, I want to copy certain photos in an event and then have the copies in another event WITHOUT removing the original photos from their original event; how to do that?

    in iPhoto, I want to copy certain photos in an event and then have the copies in another event WITHOUT removing the original photos from their original event; how to do that?

    The only way to do that is to export the image to a new file and then re-import it.
    It's not really the intended way of working as it uses twice the disk space and is inefficient.
    Use Albums instead. A Photo can be in any number of albums and use no extra disk space as it just simply references the image in the Library. Albums can be sorted any way you want - including manaually - and can have image from anywhere in the Library just by drag and drop.

  • How stop PS6 from removing the DPI value from an image when using "save for the web"?

    How stop PS6 from removing the DPI-value from an image when using "save for the web"?
    Example:
    - Open a tif image, that contains a dpi value (resolution).
    - Use the splice tool in PS6.
    - Export the slices with "Save for web", as gif-files.
    Then the dpi value is removed, the gif files has no dpi value (it's empty).
    How can we stop PS6 from removing the dpi value when using "save for web"?
    OR:
    When using the slice tool, how can we save the sliced pieces without PS removing the dpi value?

    you can make your art go a little bit over the bounds. or you can make sure your artboart and art edges align to pixels

  • HT5891 Is there a way to remove the menu bar from a secondary display while still using the "Displays have separate spaces" mode?

    Is there a way to remove the menu bar from a secondary display while still using the very useful "Displays have separate spaces" mode?
    The reason I ask is that most full-screen video playback in most applications, from iTunes to Flash/Silverlight plugins do not take up the full screen, instead leaving space for the menu bar (in the case of iTunes) or leaving the menu bar present on top of the video (for fullscreen Flash/Silverlight videos).
    This is annoying for several reasons ranging from the obvious distraction factor to the fact that 1080p video is not played back at native resolution on a 1080p display.
    If there is no way to disable this functionality while maintaining separate spaces, I would (humbly) suggest that a future update to Mavericks allow non-Lion-style* full-screen apps to take over the entire display.
    *Lion-style full-screen apps are those that animate into a full-screen mode when the opposing-arrows full-screen button in the upper-right-hand corner of the window is pressed.

    No. Turning that off reverts to the old display setup. You have one desktop spanned across all displays. The menu bar appears on the primary display only.

  • I need to know how to remove the color background from an image PLEASE

    Hello, I'm trying to remove an image within an image so that the image removed stands alone as its own file.
    http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs47/f/2009/166/0/5/Straw_Hat__s_Flag_by_fenrir1992.jpg
    ^ So from that image, I'm trying to remove the black background so I only have the skull with hat image (and the bones behind it of course).
    The reason for this is because I want to use it on a shirt, and that black background image does not match the shade of black on the shirt.
    The file above is the image I wanted to use, with a size of 2874 x 2000. If anyone could show me how to do this I would greatly appreciate it

    Just use the MAGIC WAND TOOL, and select the black area(s). Hit the delete button... and you're done
