Aspect Ratio problems
I’m bringing in footage that is DVCPRO HD (1080i60) 1280 X 1080. In premiere when starting a new sequence I select the DVCPRO 60i setting for the sequence, but when i bring it into the sequence it looks smushed together with black bars on the side. In the source monitor it looks smushed together too. I’m not sure how to fix the aspect ratio problem with this footage. Can anyone help, please? Thank you!

What kind of DVCPRO HD is this? is it native or wrapped in a quicktime?
Try this. Select all the files in the Project and right click > Modify > Interoperate Footage….
Under “pixel aspect ratio” select: Conform to DVCPRO HD (1.5)

I believe it’s a Quicktime. I’m not sure what you mean by native. It’s an MOV

Drop a clip on the “make new sequence to match” icon in the lower right of the browser, let Pr match it up for you.
Alt. dropping a clip into a blank sequence, Pr will prompt you to match if they don’t.

Ok! So that worked and got the black bars off, but the footage is still all smushed into a 4:3 aspect ratio and the footage is 16:9. This is the part where the settings doesn’t let me change any of that stuff in the sequence settings

Did you try modifying the aspect ratio of the footage as I suggested? You’ll want to drag the file to a new sequence again after you do that?
