  16:9 Quicktime Exporting from Final Cut Pro

  Posted by Greig Johnson on February 25, 2009 at 9:00 pm

  Hey all,

  I’m working in Final Cut Pro on a 16:9 Anamorphic DV PAL Sequence.

  Obviously, it looks fine ratio-wise in Final Cut, but I was just wondering – is there any way of exporting a Quicktime that’ll automatically retain its 16:9 ratio/proportions, rather than appearing as a vertically stretched-looking 4:3 movie? I already know how to alter the playback in Quicktime Player; I just wanted to know if the Quicktime movie itself can be made to stay 16:9.

  Thanks in advance,
  Greig.

  If you export via Quicktime Conversion, you can constrain the frame size to be a true 16×9 frame size instead of anamorphic. Of course, exporting via QT Conversion will also take longer than your standard QT export.
