    smoothcam – anamorphic

    Posted by Peter Ralph on August 25, 2009 at 12:36 am

    I want to apply smoothcam to some downconverted HDV 16:9 footage inside an SD project.

    I export the clip I want to smooth as a self-contained QT and then reimport, it comes back in as 16:9 with black bars top and bottom – but when I apply smoothcam it scales up to 4:3

    I have played with the project settings but no luck

    any ideas?

    And what would those settings be?

    When you export the clip to make it a SC movie, are you downconverting it, are you making it anamorphic, or are you keeping it a HDV file? The sequence that you are bring it in to is that SD 4:3?

    I guess the captured clip was messed up in some way – I exported from QT and the problem is fixed
