Activity Forums Adobe Premiere Pro mp4 clip

  • Posted by Mark Webb on April 20, 2018 at 10:24 pm

    I have a clip which is 1440X1080 4:3 mp4 now when i import in premiere its not displaying correctly
    when i play it in vlc it plays correctly and at the 4:3 with the bars

    when in premiere its out of proportion
    what sequence settings should i be using?

    how do i set it to the right ratio 4:3?

    So this isn’t an anamorphic file? Not meant to be stretched out to 16:9? Because 4:3 HD is a non-standard format (well, now more standard due to Instagram)…so Premiere might not be set up for it. You can create a custom sequence that matches that format by dragging the clip onto the NEW SEQUENCE icon in the Browser.
