Viewers in the US are going to see it in widescreen (16/9 bars in FCP) ?

I thinking to use the filter in FCP to put 16/9 bars on my 4/3 DV footage.
The output is a sport DVD.
I am wondering if the majority of the viewers in the US are going to see it in widescreen, meaning with black bars on the left and right (and obviously on the the top and bottom)?
In other words, does anyone knows how many people in the US have a widescreen TV? 20% of the viewers? 80%?
Is it a better idea to do a 16/9 crop? Meaning blow the image up and crop off the top and bottom? Considering the process will obviously drop the image quality done..
Thanks.

In other words, does anyone knows how many people in the US have a widescreen TV?
Are you expecting to sell/give this to everyone in the US? ...
Most DV doesn't look all that wonderful on an HDTV. Enlarging it to fill a 16:9 frame BEFORE it gets enlarged again by the TV to fill a screen MUCH larger than what the DV format was ever intended to fill is not a process to yield crisp and compelling images ... but, why not give it a try and see if it meets your standards?

  • When exporting images from iPhoto library to Aperture 3 library the highlights go red and the shadow area goes blue.  This happen to all images in the Aperture 3 library, why?

    For some reason all the images in Aperture 3 library have had their highlights go red and the shadow area goes blue.  I can correct them one at a time with contrast control.  This just happen on its on after I uploaded MOuntain Lion.  Now when I go to transfer images from iPhoto this happens.  The images are all right in iPhoto but this is not the case with Apeerture.  I have 15,000 images in Aperture 3 and I can't afford the time to correct them one at a time.  What is it that I did to cause this problem?

    You have "Highlight Hot and Cold Areas" turned on.
    Toggle this on/off from the View menu.
    Thresholds are set at "Aperture➞Preferences➞Advanced".  (I have mine set to 100% ~ it's not clear what the scale is.)

  • The photos are going insane after the 9.18 Raw Camera update!

    I use Sony a700, and after the latest RawCamera update, the photos are going weird.
    the color are totally changed, and it couldn't be tuned to normal. seem the new parameters(maybe there are) make the photos totally out of range.
    and jpeg format is not influenced only the ARW format.
    It seems to the parameters of the camera Raw Algo was mistaken.

    Don't panic. There are some who've found a solution!
    What you'll need to do is "Downgrade" back to RAW Update 2.1.

  • Created site in iweb 08 and posted to netfirms... the pages are all loaded up but there is no nav bar, it comes up on each page as a small black dot. How do I get the nav bar to load up and show?

    I created site in iweb 08 and posted to netfirms... the pages are all loaded up but there is no nav bar, where the nav bar should be is only a small black dot on each page. How do I get the nav bar to load up and show? It was a disaster loading up my site as it changed the case of the letters and at first no pages were seen, so I had to go through and change the letters that were supposed to be cap, back to cap in every file. I don't know if this has something to do with it or not. The tech support doesn't have an answer. Please let me know if you have any ideas and solutions. Thanks bunches!

  • How do I shrink the size of the white area box to see more of the persona?

    I would like to shrink the white area of the home page, so that most of the persona shows. All I use the white area for is the search feature, and the rest is blank. I asked a similar question before, but it was too technical to understand. Now, I can't even return to that answer.
    I would like to have a more customizable web page, where I can move, re-size, or even delete parts of it. Mostly, I would like to see the persona, which is pretty. A programmable home page, which could use something like Print Shop or other greeting card setups, would be good.
    I do not think I am the only one who does not understand the written instructions for this. I tried to follow them, but I messed up the design even more. Please look at Optimum Online, which has video tutorials, where someone actually shows you what to do and talks you through it. I set up my Optimum Online and Cablevision settings with that.

    Personas decorate the Toolbar area ''(and maybe the Status bar at the bottom)'' of the Firefox browser window - the UserInterface; the "white area" below the Personas is the content area where the web page is displayed. Having a "more customizable web page" wouldn't do anything to display more of the Persona image. If you want a "customizable homepage" where you can move content around the page or add and remove items, find a web page like that and set that as your homepage in Firefox. You can any web page that you want as your "Homepage", you can even have multiple "homepages" in separate Tabs.<br />
    http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
    If you want to see more of the Persona image vertically, you need to add some toolbars via the Toolbar Customize mode or by installing some Toolbar extensions that add a Toolbar to the Firefox UI. You need to add something to every new toolbar that you add, even a blank '''Space'''; if you don't place anything on a newly created Toolbar it will disappear when you exit the Customize mode. <br />

  • Anyone have any idea how long the servers are going to be down?

    I purchased a new iphone today and I can't activate it because the servers are down. This *****!

    I tried to activate my wife's iPhone this evening and after being put on hold for 20mins and going through the rountine of asking for my iPhone cell number and serial, I had to stop the tech guy from going further. Only after telling him that I couldn't complete the registration process that he mentioned the authentication servers being down....until Monday!!!
    I'm Apple Certified and checked the support site before calling. You would think that Apple would put something up stating the issue instead of having 100's if not 1000's of people calling with the same issue. You would think that ATT and Apple would've learn from the first time around on this issues.
    Not a happy Apple user at this time.

  • My ipod will not stay connected to my computer.  When first plugged into the usb port, I can see it as a drive.  Within seconds it disappears.  If I look in the devices area, I can see it but it has a yellow triangle with an exclamation point beside it.

    When I connect my ipod to a usb port on my computer, I can see it in my computer as a drive for a few seconds and then it disappears.  It can be seen under devices but as a yellow triangle with an exclamation point in it.  If I run trouble shoot, it states windows is disconnecting this device. 
    I can see it in itunes as a device.  However, this is a brand new computer, running windows 7.  My last one bit the dust in mid use.  I want to save the songs on my ipod and to do that I believe I need to be able to see the files on the ipod.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Great Troubleshooting on your own so far!. (If you got 2 PC and 2 iPod would be much easier, some of the people in this community has more than 2 of each.)
    Hope you did not connect it to a USB Hub, the sync cable must be plug in directly to a USB2 port at the back of the Desktop Computer.
    If you have a spare Notebook, with iTunes, connect it to the Notebook, to check if the iPod is working or hung.
    Can you iPod run and play songs, when disconnected from the PC? (Sorry, for just asking the obvious)
    Anyway, just hard reset your iPod, so that we can start from scratch
    1. if your iPod is hung, reset it by pressing Menu and Center button for at least 10 secs till the Apple logo, comes on. (this won't delete your songs in the iPod, if they are not corrupted))
    2. Connect it back to your Notebook or Desktop.
    if your iPod screen is dead, try charging the battery by connecting it to another computer. if it doesn't connect to successfully to another computer, it may need servicing.
    Good luck!

  • How do I transfer my iTunes library to a new computer?  I have transferred purchased music but wish to transfer the rest of my library.  Home sharing isn't responding and the computers are going to be in different locations.

    How do I transfer my iTunes library from my old computer to my new one?  I have successfully transferred purchased music but not my library of CDs.  Home sharing will not work, and isn't working in fact, as the computers will be in different countries.

    Assuming your library is in the default location and all of the media is stored within the library's media folder then this is what you need to do:
    Copy the entire iTunes folder from <User's Music> on the source computer to <User's Music> on the target computer.
    You can do this directly over a network (making use of shared network folders) or by making a copy on an external drive, moving the drive between computers, and copying again. Any way that works is good. However if you say that you cannot use Home Sharing (doesn't work properly anyway) because the source and target are not on the same network then method 2 as I describe it won't work either.
    Your playlists, play counts, ratings etc. are stored inside the database iTunes Library.itl which is inside the iTunes folder and a successful migration includes all of this information, not just the media files. I recommend method 1 from the earlier link as it sets you up with a backup mechanism to use in future. All hard drives fail eventually and often without warning, or at least a warning that is noticed and then heeded.
    If the initial assumption is wrong, or you need help checking, just ask.

  • TS2755 Receiving "Message Send Failure" notification, but messages are going through?

    For the past few days, I have been receiving a "Message Send Failure" after every iMessage that I send. The messages are going through, but I still receive the notification every time. I have restarted my phone, signed out of and back into iMessage, and reset my network settings. Nothing seems to be working. Anyone have a solution? I'm having the same problem on my iPad, which leads me to believe it's a problem with iMessage at large as opposed to a device problem. Thanks!

    If you have others that are receiving your imessaging  but not the group you are attempting to send to then do this:
    Click on your text messaging area using imessaging enabled and then type a message to yourself. Do this test to verify that your imessaging apple server is working properly. IF you get the messsage back to you in BLUE this indicates to you that both the outgoing and incoming text messaging is working as imessaging. With this piece of information verified that will indicate there are connectivity issues with individuals or all that are a part of the group you are attempting to contact. Please do not conclude that at a point in time this communication worked via imessaging that there may be some in the group that are now having conectiviity issues of their own.
    Good luck, Friend.

  • My ipad 3 is very slow and the programs are closing it down

    Hello,I was wondering know if someone can help me with this, my ipad it is working very slow, also the keyboard have a long delay and the programs are going off of freezes. It is an Ipad 3, that i believe it is not old, i already restored several times and is setted as a new ipad now, but it is still doind the same. Every time that I call Apple they ask me to restore it again, to be honest i don't want to buy a new ipad, is there anyone who can help me?

    You can try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.
    May not help, but will not hurt anything.
