Video Larger in video window
I drag a clip into the preview box (left screen box) and it looks fine. I drag it to the timeline and when I see it in the preview window (right screen box) it’s blown up and cropped. The whole video is there but I have to resize it manually to get the whole shot. Any ideas why? I checked the settings but have no idea.
For a more detailed example, I have a shot of a guy with a lot of white space around him in the preview (this is correct). Once on the timeline it blows up and it’s just his face in the shot. If I click on the preview I can grab the corners and resize down so I get my white space back. WHERE IS THE DARN SETTING?
Thanks!

It would appear you are trying to edit in a sequence that has smaller dimensions than the clips you are using.
The source montior (left) shows the clip based on it’s dimensions, shape and frame rate. The program moniotor (right) shows you the sequence’s dimensions, shape (pixel aspect ratio) and frame rate.
If you add a clip that’s HD to a DV sequence the HD clip will look cropped at 100%.
Make sure you are editing with matching sequence settings to your clips.
