Pixel aspect ratio in Adobe Media Encoder

[Desiree Damon]

This is probably useless to you now, but I was searching the forums frantically looking for an answer to this problem… And then I found something.

In CS5 at least, the aspect ratio controls aren’t found in the export settings. I had to go to file/Interpret footage, then I could change my aspect ratio. Everything went perfectly after that.

Desiree,

I’ve been searching high and low for a solution to this so thanks!

The file interpretation option could be located somewhere a bit more intuitive..

Hi Knut,

10 years after the OP, I was suffering (and getting frustrated) from the same thing in Media Encoder 2019.
But I found a solution.
It’s not in the settings pane, but in the upper left corner: set ‘Source Scaling’ to ‘Scale to Fill’. That should do what you want.

or better: Stretch to Fill, to stretch the non square pixels to square.
