  Posted by John Younger on April 12, 2010 at 7:26 pm

  Hey guys,
  I have a .mxf file that was created from a panasonic p2 and is 960×720 (1.33) 23.976fr… the codec is dvdcpro i believe and i cant find a comp setting that makes it output correctly. when i match the comp settings to the clip the is squashed…. I am very unfamiliar with .mxf files!!!
  Am i missing something?? Seems like i need an anamorphic setting…thx in advance

  Hi John,

  960×720 uses non square pixels to create a 1280×720 image. Do you have the “toggle pixel aspect ratio” button selected? This tells AE to convert your non-square pixels to a square pixel preview. It’s under your composition preview and looks like a box with a line over it.

  Your comp should be setup as DVCPro HD 720 23.976
