4×3 to 16×9
Hi.
I have to make footage for a LCD screen with video.
I have 4×3 PAl video.
I don’t want that all the footage lost the aspect ratio on the LCD screen.
What is the best way to do that in FCP 5?Thanks in advance.
Regards, Johan

So your screen is a widescreen set? It should have an option to center a 4×3 image with black bars on each side. Otherwise, you have to crop the top and bottom in F

And what has to bve the output resolution then?Thanks.

Johan,
To make 4×3 into widescreen you make an anamorphic project, and you have to blow up your footage I think it’s 133% and crop off the top and bottom. You lose resolution, but that’s the only way I know to do it.
Might be some more clues in here, been a while since I read it.https://www.kenstone.net/fcp_homepage/understanding_16_9.html
There’s also a tutorial at rippletraining about how to do this for the Web which may be helpfull.
