video salvage
I know this is a no no.. but you get in these situations where the client just wants to use a low rez clip in a project. I have reduced the output as low res as possible.. now 720×404. It is a 16:9 project. most of the footage supplied is ok 1200×720 etc. I have one important clip that is in 4:3. The project cannot be in 4:3 and have letterbox for the HD footage. So I’m forced to blow up the 4:3 to fill the screen. It’s blowing out the clip a bit and I was wondering if anyone knows a method or some software that might clean it up..at least a bit. It’s probably not that bad. But it’s unacceptable to me. thanks

frame rate is 29.97 . I tried using a delinterlace filter within FCP. should I convert the video to prores 422? would that help, you think?

If you put a 4×3 NTSC clip on an 16×9 NTSC sequence YOUR ARE BLOWING UP NOTHING.
Your picture remains at 100%.
You are just Cropping the top and bottom of the image.
