custom pixel aspect ratio
I received some interesting specs to follow for an unconventional billboard.
My final delivery is 1216×214 with a non-square (.8525) pixel aspect ratio.
So it basically is one 608×214 left eye and one 608×12 right eye. Put these two side by side and you have a single 1216×214 quicktime to deliver.
This is how it will play, and how it will render out, 1216×214. I need to set up a .8525 pixel aspect ratio to get it to look proper when viewing on the 6,000 sq ft canvas.
1) I have created this entire 1216×214 file in 1:1 square pixels already. Can I salvage this render?
2) I now need to comply with these specs. 1216×214 .8525 (pixel aspect ratio, not screen aspect ratio.)I have not been able to successfully edit the AE interp TXT file. I am doing it wrong for sure.
Or is there another way to create a .8525 pixel aspect ratio?Can anyone shed some light on this that has indeed customized a bizarre pixel aspect ratio in the past?
This will be a one-off. Any help is appreciated. -

Thanks Dave,
Again thanks for the math on this, makes since. This helps for many future PARs I come across.I really wished I knew these specs prior to doing everything in square pixels.
Now if I were to reverse engineer this, I am curious if you think it is salvageable, seems like starting with a square pixel comp would translate to the tops and bottoms being cropped off. But for kicks since I did not start with the proper PAR. I would need to blow it up right?
Thanks again.
