Jeff,

I have an encoding pre-set that is made for Widescreen, so I’m already working with that. Actually, I tried Jeff Pulera’s suggestion of changing to Square Pixels and it worked perfectly.

Thanks for your help, though. I was getting really nervous because I couldn’t remember how I did it the first time!

Jeff,

Worked like a charm! Thanks so much!

Right now, I’m having her send me the original tapes so I can capture them directly into Premiere. But I will keep this in mind for future reference. Thanks!

By the way, do you know if there are ways to modify the presets for a sequence? There are numerous pre-sets to choose from, but have you ever been in a situation where you’ve needed a customized one?

Hi Vince.

I’m not sure what codec she used for export. I’ll check with her. Meanwhile, here are the Properties:

I tactually does the same this when I render directly in Flash. However, I spoke to someone else, and she recommended that I use my Adobe Flash CS3 Video Encoder to convert the MOV to an FLV. That seemed to take care of the problem.

She also recommeded that I use .PNG or .TIFF files instead of .JPGs when creating title cards.

Thanks for your help, guys!

Yes, it does happen if I play the Flash version straight from my hard drive with my Adobe Media Player. Here are some links to where you can see both versions.

This one is the original Quicktime .MOV version that looks like it’s supposed to. It’s 175 MB, so it may take several minutes, depending on your connection speed.

When prompted to log in, enter “wcbf” for the userid and “trailer” for the password.

This one is what it looks like when it’s done in Flash. It’s 80MB.

No log in required.

Let me know if you need anything else.

Thanks!

Thanks for the help. Turns out, my client was satisfied with an AVI file and he has the ability to convert it to MOV while maintaining the widescreen.

But this will be good information to know for the future!

Much appreciated!

That worked like a charm! Now I can get the menus to do whatever I want.

Thanks so much for the help!
