  Aspect Ratio

  Posted by Steve Timper on June 27, 2010 at 6:07 pm

  I used Compressor to output the video below to h.264, but it came out as a 4 x 3 aspect ratio. I have an Applescript on my MAC that converts 4 x 3 to 16 x 9 video and used it successfully, but after I saved it and uploaded it to Vimeo it is now at a 4 x 3 Aspect Ratio. Any suggestion, or answer will be appreciated.

  You need to output again using compressor, but this time make certain to set the proper aspect ratio in the geometry window. You can even force it to output a non-anamorphic “full-raster” version that would virtually impossible to screw-up.
