    According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDV HDV is 1440×1080 MPEG-2 (The pixel aspect ratio is 1.33 so it displays correctly on 16:9 monitors.)

    Taking it into a Mac via FCP for green screen (Keylight actually) compositing in AE.

    I take that into FCP with NO conversion and when I look at the property window it says; 1888×1062

    No. I’m NOT using the Apple Intermediate Codec yet. I’m looking at the DV25 file in the Capture Scratch created by doing a capture from a Sony HVR-M25U directly into FCP.

    Can you explain what’s going on here?

    Even if the property window in Quicktime was trying to account for a regular 16:9 aspect ratio, it ought to say 1920×1080, but instead it’s giving me a totally wierd number. Yes, this is consistant from file to file.

    I simply can not correlate this and it just makes no sense.
