  FCP import in AE: “1.09:1” aspect ratio?

  Posted by Michiel Van der zeeuw on August 23, 2006 at 12:28 pm

  Hello

  I am working on a PAL DV-Cam FCP-project, exporting clips to After Effects. I noticed that AE imports the clips in the following aspect ratio: Non-square 1.09:1. This is something that has recently happened, AE always used to import my FCP-clips in D1/DV PAL 1.07:1 aspect ratio.

  Anyone knows what happened? Is this a box in FCP that I checked by mistake? The only thing I can come up with, is that the previous project I worked on in FCP/AE was 16:9. But I never heard or read anything about a 1.09:1 apspect ratio.
  Btw, footage was shot on a Sony PD170, captured with a DSR25.

  Many thanks in advance.

  Hi Dave

  Many thanks for your quick answer, your suggestion works well.
  Is there any way to remove the flag in the metadata in FCP?
  thanks again

  me again

  I looked at every dialogue I could think, trashed FCP preferences. Still digitizing (according to AE) in 1,09:1 aspect ratio.
  ?
  thanks
