Trying to take screens from movie and make them jpegs

Each time I export a freeze frame to jpeg the aspect ratio of 16:9 is not preserved. Does anyone know how to export a frame in video to picture without it getting all stretched and such?

This has everything to do with the anamorphic pixels in 16:9 format video.
Once you have exported the still from FCP, open up the image in Photoshop and resize it to a true 16:9
For example, if you export a 1080i HDV image it will be 1440 or something like that pixels wide. Resize it to 1920 x 1080.
good luck.

  • Why are my Illustrator images getting thicker strokes when I take the bounding box and make them smaller?

    Why are my Illustrator images getting thicker strokes when I take the bounding box and make them smaller? This has never happened to me. I'm not an expert at Illustrator, but I do know some fundamentals.

    Thank you for responding so quickly. No apologies necessary - I know this Forum isn't McDonalds - don't expect an answer to be served up right away. You helped me out with a big issue yesterday.
    I am using a mac - OSX 10.7.5
    I have Adobe Creative Suites - CS5 - Illustrator version is 15.0.2
    The contents I am placing are all  Vector - Illustrator files
    But, I wonder about some of the vector files I work with.  Could a "line weight/thickness" be 'assigned' to the drawing and screw things up? I used 'simple' linear (line) drawings from SolidWorks that have been converted to ai files. It's just weird because I checked the stroke of the drawing and it's not out of line.
    I am attaching part of some box labels. You can see how the drawings, of the products, on the 'left side' are "thick" after embedding them. I think the "Global Logo" was pasted into a template not linked that's why it's okay. But look at the Quiet Thunder logo - it looks terrible. These labels are only 2.25" X 6.5", so its important I keep the images lightweight. 
    Your help is very much appreciated. Thank you!

  • Good morning, i would like to know how to take pictures from iphoto and put them in a folder on desktop

    Good morning: would like to know how to take pictures from my iphoto and put them in a folder on my desktop

    To take photos from iPhoto and put them onto a folder on Desktop, first create a folder on Desktop. Right-click on Desktop and create a new folder.
    Then, open iPhoto, and you have two ways to export photos:
    1. Select the photos you want to copy to Desktop with Command key (or go to Edit menu > Select All, if you want to copy all photos), and then, drag them to the folder on Desktop.
    2. Select the photos you want to copy to Desktop with Command key, go to File menu > Export, and follow the steps.
    You can choose the one you prefer

  • HT2470 how would i go about taking multiple files from documents and make them part of 1 master file

    how would i go about taking multiple files from documents and make them into 1 master file? I want to put all documents associated with this project together for easier access.

    From the finder window, click File, click new folder, you can drag all documents into that Folder making it the master folder. You can ajso drag folders into the Master folder, and have them as sub-folders if you wish to  do that. Either way they will all be in one master folder.

  • How do you take photos from iPhoto and create a jpeg?

    How do you select photos from your iPhoto and create a jpeg to post on a photography site that requires jpeg format?

    Photos in iPhoto are already in JPEG format.
    Just as an FYI: iPhoto supports a range of Camera Raw formats, Jpeg, Png, Tiff and  a few other formats as well.

  • I need to retrieve my quicktime movies and make them wmp compatible. I only have the QT Player and it will not allow me to export. Suggestions?

    I just have to QuickTime player and somehow the last movies I synched from my iPhone (3Gs) were done in .MOV instead of .wmp format.  I haven't had an issue with this before. It won't allow me to export and I can copy, but it will not paste into another program. I have tried the codec downloads. I'd like to refrain from purchasing Quicktime Pro if at all possible. I just want to burn these movies to DVD.
    Thanks.

    Two of my external drives both stopped working. One was for the original file the other was a back-up.  The movies are NOT in the library.  I just get the word downloaded next to the movie which will not activate when I try to click it on the "download previous purchases" screen.  The ones with the iCloud icons are more recent downloads.

  • Would like to know how to take itunes and make them caller tunes on iphone

    would like to know how to take itunes on iphone and make them caller tones

    Then type "create iphone ringtones"  or similar into the google search bar.
    You will find several ways to it.
    If you have a Mac as your signature says, then you have posted in the wrong forum - this is the windows forum - and you can use Garageband to make ringtones.

  • Can I take a PDF from iBooks and make it a numbers document?

    Can I take a PDF from iBooks and make it a numbers document?

    To do this on your phone, copy and paste them into your document (tap and hold on the photo to copy it).  If you need to import it to your computer to do this, save it to the camera roll by tapping Edit, tap the photos you want to import, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll.  You can then import them to your computer using your usb cable (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083).  Alternatively, attach them 3-4 at a time emails and send them to yourself.

    Thank you for that update.
    I would next backup your device to iTunes with this article:
    iOS: How to back up and restore your content
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    And restore it first as a new device, and verify that it works properly, then restore from your backup with the same article below to ensure that it is still working.
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
    If it does not work correctly when you set up the phone as a new device, I would next seek service for your iPad:

    Hey terremo,
    Thanks for the question. From the information you provided, it sounds like the iMac is successfully turning on, however video is not displayed. These symptoms can usually be isolated further by the troubleshooting steps in this article:

  • IPhone 6plus camera freezes when trying to take photos from within other apps

    Hi,  8.1 6Plus,   my regular camera turns black screen when trying to take photos from within other apps or sometimes between photos in the regular camera app.  I can still take a photo, I just have no idea what I'm seeing or taking a picture of.   Then when I press retake (in other apps) the screen comes back on and it works.   Its annoying more than anything else.   Any ideas? Have done the whole close apps/restart process.
    Thanks!

    What version of iPhoto? How much disk space did you have before deleting things?
