Aspect ratio…..
I make a ref. video and put it in flash encoder and my video is getting stretched . It is a 16:9 video….HVX footy. It will be for a web site….. the space they have for the video is 320 x 180 or should it be 320 x 213?

320×180. What application are you using to convert to Flash?

Flash video encoder…… I have to do a few things to get the graphs to look right. I made a ref. video and put it in compressor and then put it in flash and it worked.
I tried making a self-contained ref. video with the settings being DV ntsc anamorphic and put that in flash and it messes it up…..

Aha, it’s dv anamorphic.
I don’t know how the Flash Video Encoder works, but somewhere in there you have to tell it that the video you are feeding it is 16×9. Right now it sees a 720×480 movie and keeps it 4×3.
With Squeeze this is an easy process, but I have never used the Flash Video Encoder.

That is the thing… It reads the quicktime out of compressor the right way…it knows what the size is of that file. It just isn’t reading the rev. video even with the anamorphic setting put on it…

Within Flash, you have to tell it that the aspect ratio is 16×9, not 4×3. Obviously that flash video encoder is not picking up the anamorphic flag so you have to tell it to produce a 16×9 movie.

Mr Sykes:
I found the Adobe CS3 encoder and you have to click the settings button and go to the ‘Crop and Resize’ tab. In there click the resize video and UNcheck the maintain aspect ratio. Then change the size to 320×180.
You should be good after that.
