Thanks again Tom,

That was very helpful, as it tells me I probably am importing properly.

I oprned a file from clip folder and cut and paste this portion of the text file:
“260 1001/30000 MXF DV25_411 59.94i 01:16:11:20 E700248E 2:3 4:3”
maybe you guys can interpret it for me but it looks like he shot in 4:3 and does 2:3 figure in as to maybe casusing the small letterboxed 16:9 look.

Thanks again Im starting to think were stuck here.
Does anyone have experience with calling panisonic tech support on something like this. Maybe they could just look at the whole text file and tell us what the heck we did here.

Thanks very much Tom and all
Damion

Hello Tom,
I just got ahold of one of the folders he shot and copied the contents folder and the last clip text file as well. I then navigated to the contents folder/video subfolder and imported mxf clips into a dv widescreen premiere project. Again the clips are this odd size.

Is it possible to shoot widescreen DV on hpx500 and then maybe set camera to shoot letterbox perhaps creating this problem. Again sorry for lack of knowledge camera.

appreciate your responses folks!

Still hoping for a resolution
