  • DPX renders not embedding aspect ratio info

    Posted by Navarro Parker on November 1, 2015 at 11:50 pm

    Using AE 2014.2. Working with anamorphic everything. When I render to a DPX sequence and import it into Nuke or RV, it comes over squished.

    Is AE not writing the correct aspect ratio metadata into its DPX files? Is there a way to do this? Something like the Interpretation Rules.txt, but for output?

    I’m not sure that pixel aspect ratio is supported in DPX metadata. Render out as square pixels or set the aspect in whatever program you’re importing the footage to.

    I’m working in a completely anamorphic pipeline. Rendering to square adds another step and processing for all my shots.

    AE needs to correctly write the aspect ratio to DPX files like Nuke does.
