You need to say what kind of file you are trying to playback, if its a AVI file like mentioned it could be any one of a gazillion types, you’re better off getting the file particulars from g-spot not whats missing

[Calum Guthrie] “What would be the point in Canon popping in a 960 wide CCD”
Most of the other prosummer cam were using chips with natural 4:3 chips that were cropped and DSPed to wide screen, using native wide screen chips resulted in bit higher resolutions and a bit better color rendition, and full vertical resolution plus the publicity value[Calum Guthrie] “That though the CCD is 960×576, any output I use will have converted those pixels information to 720×576?”
Thats whats been said -
[David Sapadin] “format I should make the project”
If you shot the video in 1080/30(60i) just use the appropriate HDV preset, if you shot 1n one of the other modes you have to download the Adobe Ppro ver2 update for Canon progressive modes -
[Calum Guthrie] “If I was recording direct from to disk, could I use its natural resolution, or will it still be Pal 16:9 res?”
Going direct to disk from the XL2 via firewire results in the same format as on tape (720X576) with the appropriate PAR for the format, its convenient as you don’t have to capture a tape but you wouldn’t have a archive, the analog outputs may give a bit better color as they are usually before quantization but you would have to convert it to a format that could use the information like SD-SDI and have the appropriate codec(10bit) and capture hardware. -
You should mention what type of source footage you are using, and what presets you are using

,[Calum Guthrie] “are my settings wrong, the XL2 is not like other DVs in terms off CCD usage”
The XL2 is a SD camcorder, Although imaging chips is using sq pixels in a widescreen format the video is DSPed to normal SD formats, the formats on tape are 720X480, .89PAR for 4:3, 720X480, 1.2PAR for 16:9, so you should be using standard NTSC presets to reflect this, also you should not be judging the video by what you see on the computer, but by the video shown on a external video monitor -
If you have a late version of QT there should be a H264 codec under the codec selector under QT option in the medea encoder, how it will work I don’t know

The reason I asked how many monitors you are using and for what is that it appears you are extending your desktop on to a external video monitor
<>Under widows the extendet monitor(YUV)on Decklink is running perfect.<> -
720×480 wide screen will appear stretched on a 4:3 tv as its anamorphic video with a par 1.2 there should be a flag in the video that tells that DVD player that it wide screen and outputs correctly if it detects a wide screen. what are you trying to view on what?

[Guenter Sauernheimer] “Under widows the extendet monitor(YUV)on Decklink is running perfect”
[Guenter Sauernheimer] “My Problem is, that the videooutput for the second monitor in Premiere can not be routed to Decklink. There is no setting in Premiere-> Project-> Project properties->general->playout properties.”
How many monitors are you trying to run?? two computer monitors plus a external video?? or one computer + external video??
