problem with avi export
I brought a PAL tiff sequence into AE 7 and wanted to convert it to NTSC. I created an NTSC comp and brought in the PAL file and collapsed it down to fit NTSC dimensions, turned on frame blend and rendered out as an uncompressed avi. But when I import it into Encore 2, the video is stretched out to the sides and a lot of the image is missing. This is not the case when I bring it into Premiere Pro 2. Is this an Encore problem or an After Effects problem?
Thanks.
BTW: This problem does not happen if I create a QT file.

AVIs often do not accomodate meta-information such as pixel aspect ratios etc.. Encore may not be able to interpret your footage properly. Other than that, it may simply be a decoding problem with the CoDec you are using. If QT’s come out fine, than use them.

I agree, I always use quicktime, the image quality is much better and the file size is smaller.
I really don’t understand why people keep using AVI…
What’s the advantage? Is there any? -
Yes, there are certain advantages with QT. But I would like to have the option of avi or QT, depending on the workflow, what my client wants and what the original files were. I am using the standard avi codec, uncompressed. Anyone else running into this problem?
