Video playing 4:3 when it should be playing Widescreen HD 1440 x 1080i? XML
I have completed a project (a wedding) in FCP 7 that is 2 and a half hours Long.
It was shot and edited at 1440 X 1080i HDV
I want to bring it into a Premiere Pro CS 6 Timeline so I can use Media Encoder to encode it at High Definition. I then plan to make a Blu-Ray DVD out of it in Encore CS 6.
Here’s what I have done:
) IN FCP 7 and Exported the project as an XML
) I then closed FCP and opened Premiere Pro CS 6
) I went to File —– Import and imported my XML file into Premiere Pro CS 6.
) The project imported in Premiere Pro CS 6 Fine (except it had to replace some transitions with crossfades)
) I Double Clicked on the Timeline in the Premiere Pro Project Panel and the FCP Project opened up in a Premiere Pro Timeline
) It all looked good except for some of the video
) Some of the Videos are playing in the Program Window as 4:3. The Sequence is set at 1440 x 1080i.
) Most of the Videos are playing as normal (Widescreen)I tried rendering the ones that are playing in 4:3 mode, but it does not fix the problem.
How can I get the clips that are playing in 4:3 mode to play like they are supposed to play in Widescreen 1440 x 1080i?
Just a reminder that the Job is already on the timeline?
Thanks in advance

You are over-complicating things. Simply render in FCP…export a self contained QT file…that will make a file that matches the codec of your sequence. Lossless.
Take that into Media encoder and compress how you want.
