Widescreen with full screen resource in iDVD '08

I select widescreen to burn the DVD. When I preview DVD(before encoding), I can see my standard size movies play in widescreen mode with 2 gray areas on the left and right, which is what I want. However, after I burn as a DVD, the standard movies are automatically changed to fit into widescreen so everyone looks shorter and fatter. Is there any place I can set to non automatically adjust to widescreen size?

I have a widescreen TV. I want the menu in widescreen size, but all other my movie resources are standard size. I can keep the standard size in iDVD 6, but iDVD '08 seems automatically scale the standard size movies to widescreen size movie. Therefore, people look shorter in the screen.

  • Exporting 16:9 for use in full screen 16:9 iDVD

    Using a Panasonic DVX-100B video cam, I shot footage in the “squeeze” mode at 24p. I captured it in FCP 5.1.4 and edited it. I used the same settings for capturing that I had used before when using an older video cam with no 24p and only 4:3. Picture appeared in both "viewer" and "canvas" with bars on top and bottom and in the correct aspect ratio.
    I exported to Quicktime. When I transferred the QT video to iDVD, the widescreen template still had bars at the top and bottom and appeared stretched. Looking at it in the 4:3 template produced a picture that was correct in aspect ratio but had bars at top and sides.
    My goal is to capture, edit and produce a DVD with full screen 16:9 appearance from a "squeezed" video source.
    I’ve tried many variations but can’t seem to make it happen. I also checked that the scale in Quicktime was 853 x 480 and that "keep aspect ratio" was unchecked.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    There is a lot of conflicting information in your post.
    I believe you shot LETTERBOX and not squeeze on the dvx.
    One bug/feature of the DVX B model is that it will display SQUEEZE footage the same way as it does the LETTERBOX -- with bars top and bottom... giving you no quick way to make sure on the camera's display screen.
    By you saying that both the viewer AND the canvas show black bars top and bottom leads me to believe that indeed you didn't shoot squeeze. If it was just the canvas, ok - you had settings wrong. But the VIEWER shows you exactly what the video is straight from the source. Black bars there? Black bars on the file.
    SO - what do you do?
    Coupla options.
    1) re shoot everything (hee)
    2) Leave it alone and stay 4:3 with black bars.
    3) Create a new sequence that is DV/NTSC and click the ANAMORPHIC button. Drag the old finished sequence onto that and you should see video in a 'black box' -- bars left and right and bars top and bottom. Then click on the sequence inside the sequence and hit your ENTER (num keypad, not RETURN) this will send it to the VIEWER. CLick the MOTION tab and resize to 133.33. Yes, you'll loose quality... but hey, it's dv - not the greatest quality anyway.
    Then - export that file (will be 're-squeezed') as self-contained current settings QT Movie and drag it onto this:
    http://homepage.mac.com/sith33/FileSharing34.html
    Will create a file iDVD will recognize as 16:9. Add to iDVD build and burn.
    Done.
    Good luck,

  • How do i change widescreen to full screen

    how do i change widescreen to full screen?
    Is it possible?
    I currently have handbrake, pspware, fcp studio.
    what can i use.
    please help?
    I dont care if it takes a while. (4x3) looks better on the ipod

    You can view widescreen video at 4:3 on your iPod with video. Just go into the Video Settings menu in the Video menu and turn widescreen off. After you do this, your iPod will display ALL video at 4:3 regardless of the video's aspect ratio.
    Hope this helps!

  • Help:How to publish a Flash with full screen HTML

    Please, guys, be kind enough to teach me how to publish a
    Flash with full screen size in HTML. I have tried to search the
    board, but so far no luck.
    Originally, I want my .SWF to keep changing its background.
    The solution I got was placing colored stage-sized rectangles on
    the bottom layer. Then I don't want the viewers to see the HTML
    area where I cannot seem to control smooth color changes.
    So, after I construct a Flash file with backdrop-color
    changing by the method I mentioned above, how do I publish it with
    full screen mode in HTML, as you can see
    here? Help!
    Thanks in advance, guys.

    Here's an AS2 and a AS3 version I got from David Stiller
    2 small details you have to add 1 in publish settings set Dimensions to percent 100 100
    and in the html set <style>body {margin: 0; padding: 0}</style>
    // AS2
    import flash.display.BitmapData;
    Stage.align = "TL";
    Stage.scaleMode = "noScale";
    var tile:BitmapData = BitmapData.loadBitmap("tile");
    function fillBG():Void {
      beginBitmapFill(tile);
      moveTo(0, 0);
      lineTo(Stage.width, 0);
      lineTo(Stage.width, Stage.height);
      lineTo(0, Stage.height);
      lineTo(0, 0);
      endFill();
    fillBG();
    var listener:Object = new Object();
    listener.onResize = fillBG;
    Stage.addListener(listener);
    // AS3
    stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
    stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
    var bmp:Tile = new Tile(50, 50);
    var tile:BitmapData = new BitmapData(50, 50);
    tile.draw(bmp);
    function fillBG(evt:Event = null):void {
      graphics.beginBitmapFill(tile);
      graphics.moveTo(0, 0);
      graphics.lineTo(stage.stageWidth, 0);
      graphics.lineTo(stage.stageWidth, stage.stageHeight);
      graphics.lineTo(0, stage.stageHeight);
      graphics.lineTo(0, 0);
      graphics.endFill();
    fillBG();
    stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, fillBG);

  • Website with Full Screen Background Images

    I'm trying to create a website with full screen background images (or  possibly, a video) that will crop to the browser window. It's also  important that the image be center-justified. The Die Antwoord site does  pretty much what I'm trying to accomplish. I'd also like to know how  they can use such high resolution images. If I try to use a high res  image, the file size is enormous. Another site that uses similar  technology only with a video is the TV on the Radio site.
    I  am fairly new to Flash so please forgive me if this is a rudimentary question.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Bob,
    Thanks for your reply.
    What I'm concerned about is the crispness of my full-page images. Am I right in assuming with a PDF folio, static images won't be as crisp? Is there a way to maintain its sharpness?

  • Need help with full screen slideshow image quality

    I am looking to display some images with full screen slideshow. The images I add are very large, over 5000 wide. When I publish the site some images retain their quality while others lose it and look like crap. Why would this be and how can I fix it. I tried to resize them to the 2560x1707 that muse does, and then add them. This doesn't change the end result of poor quality.

    Go to Assets Panel and locate the image you want to use at original size. Right click the image and chose 'Import Larger Size'.
    See if that helps retain quality for that image, since Muse does not resize/interpolate that image for you.
    Cheers,
    Vikas

  • Embed with full screen

    Hi, i will try to sum this up...
    what i need help with is embedding with full screen, how do i
    do that? like for ins-tents a youtube video, now i know they don't
    have any "full screen" button on their video as you embed it, but i
    want to make a costume one, like i make a link under the video
    "full screen" then you press it and the video will adjust to your
    IE or Firefox browser,, I've seen many sites to that for example
    www.all-aboutsp.com.
    and my second question, how do i embed a video from another
    website but yet use my own Player like www.southparkzone.com ?
    thanks in advance

  • Lion Screen Sharing with Full Screen apps on Remote Lion

    Has anyone figured out how to EASILY work with multiple desktops and full screen apps on the remote mac when Screen Sharing with one Lion mac from another?  All of the standard methods of switching between desktops and full screen apps (swipe, cmd + <arrow>, etc) all take place on the the local Mac, and not the remote one. 
    The only real effective methods I have found so far are using the dock (not elegant with full screen apps), and removing an app from full screen.  Either way, these methods are clumsy and do not compliment the new features that Lion provides. 

    You're not going to believe this.
    Problem was on my buddy's end.  The  slash key "/" was stuck down on her keyboard.
    Sometimes the solution is so far out of normal troubleshooting, you're luck if you ever find it...

  • Making photos full screen on an IDVD compilation??

    Can I make the photos play full screen on the TV after creating an IDVD video compilation of photos? I have already adjusted the setting to "safe TV screen size". Thanks

    Just something to add to JK's post:
    Follow this workflow to help ensure the best quality video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the  File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option.  This will separate the encoding process from the burn process. 
    To check the encoding mount the disk image and launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding was good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

  • Notification center interferes with full-screen apps (incl. games)

    The new notification center interferes with games.
    When you are making control movements on the screen, a little grey tab keeps appearing at the top middle of the screen.
    Just from using it, it seems the notification center has a full-screen mode and a normal mode. For apps which are running in full-screen (includes games, but also built in apps such as YouTube and Photos when they are in full-screen mode), the gesture which normally brings down the full notification center just brings down a little gray tab at the top middle of the screen. You can then slide that tab down, if you really want the notification center.
    But in games, the tab keeps appearing when you don't want it, and it has nothing to do with the gameplay. Even in Photos and YouTube, I would be quite happy if the tab did not appear at all in full-screen mode (a single click on these apps takes them out of full-screen mode, then you can drag down the notification center anyway).
    It would be very appreciated if an iOS update could add a notification center Settings option to disable the notification center tab drag-down, in full-screen mode.
    I can understand that Apple are very unlikely to add an option to disable all notifications in full-screen mode; fair enough. And if a new notification does appear during a full-screen app, then of course dragging that down should still bring in the full notification center. What I don't want is the little grey tab appearing - when I'm just operating with an app in full screen mode, and no new notifications have arrived.
    Mike

    I agree with both posts and have the exact same issues with iOs 5.  I also feel that I've been juked by Apple into upgrading to iOs 5.  I had absolutely no desire to slow down my games and add a feature that would interfere with said games, which is all I've gotten with the notification center.  No disable option?  Seriously, that is just one of the most absurd things I can imagine.
    And I hate to burst Apple's bubble, but your CPUs and iOs do NOT multi-task unless it's the 4s (which has two cores).  If you (Apple) have the notification center running in the background at the same time that I'm playing my game or typing, the iphone 4 and all versions before it are going to lag or skip while processing the notification center while it ignores the current thread (ie games, interface, etc)!  This is the reason the old system was implemented the way it was.  I know this for a fact (for example, any games would pause immediately when you recieved a text message, because the iphone is only capable of processing 1 thread).
    Honestly, I think apple intentionally added this feature in this way to try to force users to migrate to the 4s because it's a dual core phone, and it won't experience as much lag when running two tasks.
    Just add a disable option, some people NEED the performance we had in iOs 4!
