Help! Timeline Problem??
Hi,
I am currently working on a project with both video and pictures in which I discovered a problem today.
When placing a video in the timeline with a picture under it (different track) I am getting a small 1/4″ strip of the picture on both top and bottom sections of the video while previewing. When I “don’t have” a picture directly under my video, the video is in proper aspect (filling the screen). I haven’t changed any settings and the placement of video and pictures have been working fine up until now.
The only way I could fix this problem was to go into the Pan/Crop window of each video event and click on “Match Output Aspect.” I never had to treat video like this before, it always has been in proper aspect when interacting with pictures. I’d like to add that I do go into the Pan/Crop window for each picture and click on Match Output Aspect for proper aspect.
If anyone has any idea what’s going on I would sincerely appreciate your help. As always, Thank you Ray -

What is your aspect setting on Project settings? The same as your incoming video?

Hi Terry,
My aspect setting is set at HDV 1080i (1440×1080) 29,970 fps. I also tried setting it at HDV 1080i (1920×1080) 29,970 fps. I’ve alway’s used the HDV 1080i (1440×1080)setting. When I capture video, I select HDV over SD. I am capturing from a Sony HDR-HC7 which I filmed in HD. I don’t believe it’s from the way it was captured because I’m using the same events as before this problem. Thanks, Ray -
Hi,
I just placed a picture in proper aspect “above” my video event in which I got the same result. I just discovered that it doesn’t matter if I’m over, under or off the picture, my video aspect remains the same, about a 1/4″ on the top and bottom from being in proper aspect. There’s no problem with the width. Originally, I thought it was due to being under or over a picture or video, but that’s not the case. Everything captured on video is not quite in proper aspect. I’m up in arms, I will try capturing some new video and see what happens, but like I said before, I don’t believe it’s my captured video due to it being ok before today. I even tried a new project thinking something isn’t set right in one of my timelines in my project, but got the same results. I’ll let you know if I get it resolved. As always, Thank you, Ray
