  • export 16:9 Qt movie from DVCPRO HD 1080i sequence?

    Posted by Sterling Noren on April 8, 2005 at 3:55 pm

    Hi there,

    Im using a DVCPRO HD 1080i sequence and trying to export a low-res QT movie which can be downloaded and previewed over the net. I have experimented with a few different compressors and they look fine except that the aspect ratio is not correct in the final QT movie I export, it isn’t 16:9 widescreen. I know it has something to do with the sequence being 1280×1080 in FCP. When I export stills for PhotoShop I usually go into them later and change the image size to 1920×1080. What do I do in FCPHD in order to export a proper 16:9 aspect ratio QT movie?

    Thx,

    Sterling

    In the “export using quicktime conversion” window set the size from the default 4:3 aspect ratio (ie: 320×240) to a 16:9 ratio (ie: 426×240)
