    Hi Everyone, thanks for your help with my last post about Anamorphic DV footage not stretching.

    I’ve gone into the bin and check anamorphic next to all the footage and when I add new footage to the timeline, it’s stretching properly in the timeline.

    However, the existing footage in the timeline that did not stretch initially has not changed. IS there an east way to get this footage to conform?

    Thanks,

    Select all clips you want to change, right click, select remove attributes. Remove distortion.

    FCP automatically applies a distortion effect (under motion) to all clips of a different aspect ratio than the sequence. Now that you’ve changed your sequence to match your clip’s shape you will need to remove this distortion.

    Double click on the clip in the timeline to open it up in the viewer, go to Motion Tab, reset (click red X) for basic and distort section, this should do it.

    That would work to, but would require resetting each clip one at a time. Paste/remove attributes allows adding or removing of effects/properties from many clips simultaneously.
