Setting frame size to 640 by 360

Hello
I am trying to edit video that is 640 by 360 in size but Premiere seems to only want to have it in 720 by 480. This results in a thick black box around my video that is very annoying. Is there any way to fix this? I do not want to upscale the video because it looks horrible.
I am useing Adobe Premiere Pro CS4.

The attributes with Export will also depend on the main choices that you make. If you choose a DVD Export setting, you are correct. However, there are many other Export Presets. My determining factor is "how do I intend on delivering the output file?" Once I have answered that question, I will pick an appropriate Export Preset and then adjust that to what I need. Some, like the DVD that I mentioned, are pretty well locked in.
How do you plan on delivering the output file? That will give us a starting point, to help you chose.
Good luck,
Hunt

Is it possible to set frame size for a new project ?

Hi all,
i would like to create a video in which there will be 2 videos playing the same content from a different angle.
Each video is 512 x 384 .
So i would like to set the frame size of the project as 1024 x 768 in order both videos to exist.
I searched around for tutorials regarding this but i didn't find anything similar.It seems as if i cannot set the frame size of the project from the start.
So,is there a way to do this?
Thank you for your time reading this.

nikits72.

Hi and thank you for your answers.
@->shoternz
It will be displayed in my monitor and probably on you tube.Btw your remark on size was very accurate.Didn't think of that.
Although i could use a little bigger height to use it to display a logo or something....
I am very premiere newbie as you can understand.

Doubt in setting Frame Size

Hi,
I'm having problem in setting the frame size even though i used the setSize method.I'm not able to figure out whts wrong ...here's a part of my code :
JFrame frame = new JFrame("MyFirstFrame");
     frame.setSize(600,600);
     frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
JPanel jp = new JPanel();
     frame.getContentPane().add(jp);
     frame.pack();
     frame.setVisible(true);
I'm new to java...i dont know where i have gone wrong.....the frame display in the minimum size !
pls help !
Thanks...

i mean ------------
public classs {
//some
JFrame frame = new JFrame("MyFirstFrame");
frame.setSize(600,600);
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
JPanel jp = new JPanel();
frame.getContentPane().add(jp);
frame.pack();
frame.setVisible(true);
now check until working ,you may use the setLocation(location,location).......
setLocation(int,int).............................

Setting Frame Size...

I have an JInternalFrame, inside a JDesktopPane, inside a JFrame. When I run my application, the JFrame is extremely tiny, and I have to resize it to see the internal frames. I have tried to use the setSize of the JFrame, but it does not work. Here is my code:
JFrame frame = new JFrame("Real Estate");
mainFrame = new JDesktopPane();
Dimension mainSize = frame.getMaximumSize();
frame.setSize(mainSize);
mainFrame.setSize(mainSize);
frame.getContentPane().add(mainFrame);
frame.setContentPane(mainFrame);
frame.setJMenuBar(createMenu());
Color colors = Color.lightGray;
mainFrame.setBackground(colors);
Other fe = new Other();
frame.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {
System.exit(0);
JInternalFrame jif = fe.createFinanceFrame();
jif.setVisible(true);
jif.setClosable(true);
jif.setMaximizable(true);
jif.setIconifiable(true);
jif.setResizable(true);
mainFrame.add(jif, 1);
mainFrame.setVisible(true);
frame.pack();
frame.setVisible(true);
} Thank you for your help.

Without the source code it's difficult to visualize what the problem is from your description.
I have just one comment to make: when you select a menu item, that item's listener is invoked immediately before any repainting of the screen taking place. If your listener code takes a while to finish you'll have your pull-down menu image left behind on screen until the listener finishes executing; in this case of long-running listener you'd better to execute the listener's code in a separate thread so it won't hog the event-dispatch thread (for repainting and so on).

Advice on sequence settings - frame size for VHS video in FCP

Hello,
I was hoping that I could get some advice on editing and output for video captured from VHS Tapes to ensure the best quality possible.
My current workflow to digitize the VHS tapes is:
VHS signal from JVC S7600u with TBC into ADVC 300 (no de-interlace or other filters set) into a Mac Pro via firewire. Capture preset in FCP is DV NTSC 48khz.
Once in FCP - the captured VHS video frame size is 720 X 480, Vid rate is 29.97, pixel aspect is NTSC-CCIR 601 and field dominance is lower (even)
My questions are:
If my final destination is for You Tube sharing , are these the best sequence/ frame size settings or should I convert the sequence frame size to 640 X 480, or should I leave at 720 X 480 while working in FCP and then output to Compressor and select the H264 you tube sharing video setting and change the frame size to 640 X 480?
Should I de- interlace for internet/youtube destination?
Should I de-interlace for DVD/TV destination?
If I want to burn the finished project to DVD and watch the video on a progressive montitor/ TV screen, what would be the best settings/frame size for that?
If any of you out there have experience with editing vcr/analog video in FCP and have a good workflow to ensure best quality, I would really appreciate any advice/suggestions.
Thanks in advance.

Digitize to 720X480 frame size in FCP. In compressor, your YouTube preset will automatically deinterlace and a square pixel aspect ratio.No deinterlacing for DVD.

FCP- DVDSP sequence settings. frame size

Question of sequence settings. when making a DVD, will the sequence setting, Frame size make a difference?
We are just starting to edit a documentary, which uses alot of still photos and graphics. The rest of the video is shot on DV. I have tried laying still photos on the DV sequence, but it looks like still photos look really compressed and blurry. Not so good quality wise. If I set it to CCIR 601-NTSC, the photos look super good. We are NOT outputting any digi-beta uncompressed, but only to DVD.
I am editing sequence in NTSC DV, but thinking of just before getting outputting with compressor, I am thinking of changing to uncompressed sequence CCIR 601-NTSC, and then compress it to MPEG2. (doing this later so that i can do alot of edits RealTime and worry about picture quality later) of course the picture size does get smaller... I don't really know the effect of this on a teleframed television.
Will that make a difference? Seems that if I go through DVcompression AND MPEG2 compression, both, is more compression than MPEG2 compression itself. Is there a site that talks about it?
Thanks in advance.

I only have "a bit" of experience working with stills in a DV sequence. But one thought concerns how you are integrating the stills and the video. I assume you are going to pretty much intermix the stills and the video and audio (interviews or whatever) that may go with video and stills.
The DVD format, of course, supports stills as a slide show directly, but this will not accomplish the intermix very effectively.
As far as size-quality, you may want to import the stills are larger than DV image size and then pan across them, etc.
At the end of the day, to achieve a seamless edit job, you are probably going to need to have all the stills sitting on a regular DV timeline for export / encoding to MPEG2.
I honestly do not put much stock in the differences between viewer and canvas. I always use an external NTSC monitor to judge the final appearance. I started with a cheap TV and recently upgrade to a nice JVC production monitor. This is the real measure of the final video, in my experience.

Export your FCP sequence using "current settings" and "make self contained"
Open up Compressor and select from the presets H.264 for 300Kbps.
Duplicate the preset so you can edit the settings.
In the duplicate preset -
Enable Frame Controls -
Resize: Better
Output fields: Progressive
Deinterlace: Better
Adaptive Details: selected
Rate Conversion: Fast (your are not chaning the frame rate)
Duration: 100% of source
In the Geometry Tab
set frame size to: 854x480
pixel aspect; 1.0
Audio pass through.
then add the exported file from FCP and apply the new preset.
You can change the Resize and Deinterlace to "Better" but usually with a much longer render time.
have fun.

How do I set custom frame size in Premiere Pro 5.5 sequence.

I need to set a custom frame size in Premiere Pro 5.5.
I can't edit a preset so how do I create my own?

If you realy feel 'lazy' or have no idea what settings to choose you can drag the clip the into the New Item icon. This will create a matching sequence.

How do you set the frame size?

Trying to set a frame size for 1920px X 1080px but can't see where to set this in a new project?

Frame dimensions are a property of the sequence, not the project. A project can contain multiple sequences with different properties.
File>New>Sequence opens a dialog where you can choose a preset or configure custom settings. Several of the preset groups have 1920x1080 options.
Asssuming you have footage of those dimensions that you'll be using in the sequence, then you can simply create a sequence from an asset. Either drag it to the New Item button in the Project panel's lower right corner, or right-click it and select New Sequence from Clip.

How to set the size of the frame in the decoration controls

Hi,
I am drawing some frames or boxes using the patterns in the "Decorations" control in labview.
Is there other way to set the size of the frames or boxes rather than to drag them? also how can I change the color of the borders?
Thanks,
Joyce
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Select the item. Go to the Resize Objects button on the toolbar. Pick the last one which shows a resize within a dialog bubble. Now a dialog pops up which lets you define the height and width.
To color something, Shift right click to bring up the toolbox. Pick the paint brush. Click on the thing you want to change such as the border. It might now be the wrong color, so right click which brings up the color picker. Now select the color you actually want. If you want something to be transparent, pick the T at the upper right corner of the color dialog box.

How to set the size of a JTabbedane to the size of the frame

I have a tabbed pane in a frame, I would like to know how to set the size of the tabbed pane, so that it occupies the whole of the frame which has been set to screen size.
Thanks

Is it not possible to use it with a GridBagLayout?Your question was "How do I get a tabbed pane to take all the space of the frame"?
You where given the answer. Did you try it? Did it work? Then why are you questioning the suggestion?
Its one line of code if you use a BorderLayout which by the way was specifically designed for this purpose.
Yes you can do it with a GridBagLayout with about 5 lines of code.
So the question is why would you want to write 5 lines of code when you can use one?
If your question was "How do I waste my time forcing the GridBagLayout to size a component to take up all the space of the frame", then you would have received a different answer. (Although most people would have told you to use a BorderLayout anyway, since its easier).

How to set a frame size

Hi
I am tring to create a window with some menus on it. I have set a size to the window as (400,400). The trouble is when the application is run a small sized window is displayed on the top left corner as opposed to a 400*400 window. Although I can drag the widow to expand it, I was wondering if there was a way to set window's size.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
