HD to SD export using maintain Aspect with crop in avid?
Hi,
I have a 1080 sequence. I need to export a copy of this sequence as a same as source SD 4:3 QT. In FCP there is a feature that allows you to export 4:3 and maintain the aspect ratio by cropping. Been utilizing this work flow for awhile. Now i need to do the same in AVID.However, i cannot get it to work properly… Under export settings/custom/ quicktime options you have the same exact dialog box as in fcp, but the exports are not properly cropped.
There are 2 sets of options the ones in the avid export settings box and the ones in the qt options box. Ive tried many combinations and i always get either an anamorphic 4:3 image (scale to fit) or a blow up of the image inside the 4:3 space (crop/pad).
Its not a square vs non square thing either because the full frame is there. The crop does not seem to be working. Any ideas?
