square pixel and 4:3
Hi everyone. I suppose most of you work with NTSC, but I think I would have the equivalent doubts with that format as I have with PAL.
This is the point: Isn’t PAL supposed to look 4:3 in it’s final square pixel look in computer?
I mean, when I capture, the video has a flattened 768×576 look because of the non square pixel I suppose, although it says it is 720×576. So, looking flat it is 4:3. Now, when I compress it for example with the Flash encoder, it gains the non flatenned square pixel look and becomes really 720×576. But 720×576 is not 4:3. So the only way of having 4:3 in the computer is having it flattened?
This drives me nuts.
