  • compression automatically applied o imported jpeg/pic files

    Posted by Wayne Kurtz on June 5, 2006 at 7:36 am

    I scan pics at 720 X480, 150 dpi and notice that when I drop them into the timeline, the aspect ratio (under distortion in the motion tab) changes to -12) It results in the pic not fully filling the viewer and it also distorts the pic. Why is that automatically happening? Now I must manually change each file to 0 distortion.
    Thanks for your help

    Difference between your scanner producing square pixels and video being non-square pixels. It’s all quite confusing and takes years to grasp.

    This is my standard sigfile so do not take it personally: “For crying out loud, read the freakin’ manual.”
