  • XDCAM 422 720p 30- Weird Dimensions?

    Posted by Brian Mclean on June 26, 2013 at 10:35 pm

    Hello,

    I am exporting footage as XDCAM 422 720p 30. I have the size set to 1280×720.
    I notice when I view the file in Finder it appears to be 1248 x702 in finder with quicktime.

    Can anyone tell me why it is displaying the wrong size in finder? When I bring it into After effects and FCP it tells me the correct size is 1280×720.

    Is quicktime doing some weird pixel aspect correct?

    So forget about what the Finder tells you.
    The Finder is not a pro video app.
    FC and AE yes.
    The Finder and QT will tell you the on screen size, no the real resolution.
