  • adjusting PAR for imported stills

    Posted by Shayne Weyker on April 16, 2006 at 6:30 pm

    I have a bunch of square pixel 2048×1536 jpegs I want to use in a DV PPro 1.0 project.
    What’s the simplest process for getting the pictures in without distortion of aspect ratio in the images?
    I don’t have photoshop.

    Thanks,

    Shayne

    They are already 4:3 so what problem do you anticipate?

    The pictures looked a little stretched or squished (can’t recall which now) when played back in the timeline. I figured it had to do with the pix using square pixels and the project being non-square/DV pixels.

    Doublecheck to make sure that the project is not interpreting the stills as a 0.9 PAR. I forget the exact menu item but it has something to do with interpretation.

    The menu is FILE->INTERPRET FOOTAGE.

    So in File > Interpret Footage should I set it to conform the stills to the project (.9) or use the PAR from the jpeg file (1.0)?
