    Hi,

    Is it possible that a NTSC project is a bit stretched on a normal PAL monitor ?

    I have a globe (720×486) and it looks a bit like a egg, not much but a little.

    Is that because PAL is 720×576 (dv) ?

    regards

    The shape of the pixels is actually different between NTSC and PAL. There is more to the conversion than just size.

    Hi Steven,

    Yes i know about the 1.7 and 0.9 difference. But is it actually possible
    to see:
    1. a circle made in ntsc (photoshop document 720×486)
    2. used in a combustion workspace to animate (workspace ntsc 0.9 720×486)
    3. and then imported in a blackmagic ntsc project (720×486)

    as a bit egg shaped ?
