DVC Pro HD frame size in AE?
I have been working with some DVC Pro HD footage in Final Cut and I am working on my workflow from FCP to AE and back.
The problem I am getting is that my frame size is 1280×720 in the Quicktime movie and in FCP but when I import my footage into After Effects, it brings it in as 960×720. The footage is squashed horizontally and is in a standard format instead of a widescreen format.
I have tried re-interpreting the footage but nothing good has come out of it. I inspected the movie in QT and have taken a picture of the file information to show you.

I created independent master clips that I am editing with, instead of the captures from the P2 files, and they exported out of FCP at 1280×720 instead of the 960×720. I thought this would change it but After Effects still reads the master clips at the old frame size.
What am I missing here? I hope someone can help me. Its nearly impossible to work with the footage in AE in its current state.
Thanks.

Why don’t you (in AE) interpret at 960×720, pixel aspect ratio of 1.33?

It is interpreted at 1.33

It’s still showing at standard screen format. It should be widescreen. Am I doing something wrong?

Click the pixel aspect ratio correction switch at the bottom of the comp window.
