Using crop to change aspect ratio, but now is there a way to shift the footage without moving the cropped area?
Hi guys!
I'm new and not sure if this is the correct way to go about this. I am using the crop tool to achieve 2.35:1. But is there a way to transform my footage "beneath" the cropped area or do I always have to create a composition in AE and put a black bar layer on top?
Thanks in advance!
I would create the black bars in the title designer and put that on the highest video track of your sequence.

Is there a way to sync the FF settings and keep them on a thumb drive for temporary use? I know you can try to copy the "default" folder in .mozilla, but that usually ends up a mess. The home computer runs on Linux, don't know what the borrowed one will be.
There's Portable Firefox for Windows - http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable - and another for Macs - http://www.freesmug.org/portableapps/firefox/ - not for Linux, AFAIK.
Firefox Sync works thru a server, either Mozilla's sync server or a local sync server the user has running on their own LAN. There's no way to sync the data to a thumb drive unless it has a version of Firefox on that thumb drive.
You didn't mention which "settings" are involved, but you can export your Firefox bookmarks in HTML format to a thumb drive, and view that bookmarks.html file on any web browser on just about any operating system.
Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks ''(or Organize Bookmarks for 3.6 and earlier versions)''-> Import & Backup - Export HTML...
For your other personal data in Firefox, there is no real solution outside of using Firefox. -
Using compressor to change aspect ratio?
I have a 16x9 video file that I wanted to convert to mpeg2. I open compressor and select the proper formats, go to the geometry tab, change the crop to 4x3 but when i get my final video its still 16x9 and just stretched the 4x3 crop.
Is there anyway to preserve the 4x3 ratio?I guess the answer is to update from the buggy Compressor 3.0 to the less buggy 3.02. For me it fixed the cropping issue.

I had set this up and it was working, but I deleted several passwords and set up new ones. Even though it is set up to remember passwords, it does not prompt me on a few sites. One is a hotel company and they do not block saving passwords. The others worked before and I don't think they changed. On most of the sites it worked fine
This can be caused by the Google toolbar.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]] -
I have tried to change my password and get to the part where you need to verify by answering the questions, and I get can not get any further, as it tells me the answers aren't the ones they have but I know it is correct, so I have asked for an email to be sent, but no email comes.I receive other emails from iTunes but not the one helping me to change the password. Has any one got any idea why?

My rushes are previewable as full screen but once i pull them into the timeline they get letterboxed automatically.
I search online and came across advice to go to Sequence > Settings > Change Aspect Ratio, but i cant seem to locate it.
Can anyone help?I dont seem to have that icon?

Compressor 3.5 changes Aspect Ratio
I've been using FCp for years now making HD 1080i originals and using compressor to make H.264 deinterlaced QuickTime clips to upload. After the upgrade, none of my pre-established settings work as expected. The main problem is that the 16x9 aspect ratio has now changed. All of my compressed films are coming out very wide and stretched. I have played with several settings but can't seem to modify an old setting file or make a new one that provides consistent results. When I do stumble upon something that yields 16:9 like my original source the quality is nowhere near what I was getting prior to the upgrade. Is there a simple answer to this, like a new switch I am missing or is this a bug? I have been reading that compressing HD down to a SD DVD isn't as pretty as before either so I'm wondering if there's an underlying issue with the 3.5 upgrade or the latest OS upgrade. It seems like when I first upgraded compressor was fine, but I'm not sure I didn't compress many files. Now I'm up to OS 10.5.8 and for sure my aspect ratio is diferent than before. Any ideas??
Though it's nice to be able to export directly to Compressor, I've gone back to my old method, which works fine: I export as a "Quicktime Movie", making sure I am set to "Current Settings", "Make Movie Self-Contained" and do not "Recompress All Frames".
I then send this file to Compressor and run my "VimeoHD" preset and everything comes out fine.
The extra step is worth the reliability and troubleshooting factor. You also don't have to have both FCP & Compressor open at the same time talking to each other, which means you have more resources devoted to your compression.
I still wonder if this problem happens in FCS3? -
Viewport Node: Changes Aspect Ratio: Causes Skewing - Why?
Hello!
I'm trying to create simple zooms on photos and news articles for a documentary. So far, I've been using a Zoom node plugged into a Viewport node, which usually works just fine.
However, on some photos the Viewport script will randomly switch from a 1920x1080 aspect ratio to, e.g. 1919x1080. This causes the rendered Quicktime files to have a "skewed" effect on those random frames where the aspect ratio has changed.
Note: The aspect ratio appears to be changing as I drag the Viewerport node (set at 1920x1080) from one area of the photo to another.
Any suggestions on how to avoid this problem?
Thanks for your time.
(Shake 4.1)I think the problem you are having is because having the Viewport AFTER your
Zoom means that the Viewport is trying to adapt its crop parameters to the zoomed size,
which isn't working.
Why don't you just use a Viewport node followed by a Scale node?
If your stills are generally larger than the output size (good practice), you could feed the image into a Viewport to fix the size at 1920x1080, THEN use a scale for your zooms and pans. -
Shot in 4:3 aspect ratio, but when i capture it turns to widescreen format
I shot my footage in standard 4:3 aspect ratio, and when i import it the clip looks fine, but when i drag it to the timeline it goes into widescreen format, and i can't figure out why it is doing this. If i select the clip from my browser window and play it in my viewer window it plays fine in the 4:3 aspect ratio, but when i drag it to the timeline it goes to wide screen and it stays that way. Please help
Sounds like your sequence settings are off. If you hit command>0 (zero) you should be able to change them. One way to know they are off for sure is if when you drag your clip to the timeline you get the red line above it meaning it needs rendering. You should never have to render if your sequence settings are right.
In sequence settings make sure all your settings match the format of you clip. Frame Size, Pixel Aspect Ratio, Editing Timebase, and compressor. That should do it.
You could also just use the Easy Setup to change the whole project to match DV. -
My husband and I are divorcing and we have used his apple ID for our 2 apple tv's. He changed his password and now I no longer have access to the 300 or more movies, tv shows and music. He keeps telling me that , there is no way for us both to have it. So, since his Apple ID was the one programmed into our Apple TV's he has custody to everything. I know there has to be a solution for this, because I can't be the be the only person this has ever happened too!
Unfortunately the situation is thus...

Move rejected to trash changes aspect ratio of a clip
I just switched from iMovie HD to iMovie '11. I imported all old projects that I did not yet work on into the new version. This worked fine and I created my first movie successfully. For the current movie I have a lot of raw material in the format of 16:9 (DV). So I rejected parts of a clip and moved these to the trash in order to free space. But after moving the rejected parts, something happend to the aspect ratio of the remainder of the clip. The remaining clip is now distorted to 4:3 (black bars to the left and right, image distorted in height). All other clips are still in 16:9 and the projects settings tell this, too.
Does anyone know how to reset the clip in the event viewer to the correct aspect ratio?
Many thanks,
ErikIt sounds like that in the process of deleting the first half of the clip, the Anamorphic flag was stripped off.
You should be able to fix this in MPEG Streamclip, which is free.
In iMovie, right-click on the Event clip with the bad aspect ratio. Select Reveal In Finder. Drag this clip into Mpeg Streamclip.
In mpeg streamclip, FILE/EXPORT TO DV.
Choose 16:9 as aspect ratio and leave everything else the same.
Import this clip back into your imovie project. When you are sure all is well, you can delete the other one.
