720p mp4 picture larger and cutoff when projected in cinema with 1080p mp4
Can you help please. A group of students created a number of short movies using a D5 and output an 1080p mp4. One student used a PD150 DVCAM widescreen, edited as such and exported the movie to a 720p mp4 file. However when projected on screen in the movie house, the 720 p movie had been blown up and the ends of frame were cutoff whereas the screening of the 1080p mp4 were correct. Any suggestions. Unfortunately I do not have access to the clips.

You’ll have to re-size the mp4 file in the sequence b/4 export.

Chris are you saying that the initial export from DVCAM should have been to 1080p rather than 720 p? From what I understand the decision to export to 720p was because 1080p would have been a large jump from the original DVCAM size?

no, but resize the 720p stuff, so’s not to lose some of the image off the screen as mentioned.

Forgive me for being brain dead but I would have thought that if the 720p was projected in a playlist – let’s say VLC, that it would have projected a smaller image than the 1080p on screen. I wish I had been there so I am speculating. At the event the 720p was upsized resulting in cutoff. I am assuming that the file was not reformatted in anyway prior to screening.
