Hi Michael,

Thanks for your answer.
Would this be the case even if the lower clip has a rendered preview, and a green bar in the sequence?
Also, next to that, the lower clip doesn’t have a lot of effects, it’s just footage without any effect applied to it?

Thank you for your help,
Lieven

Hi Richard,

Something else: my sequences have the same settings. So it has something to do with the fact there’s a clip below the clip with the red bar.

Thank you,

Hi Richard,

Thank you for your help and your reply.

I”m convinced too that you should render again if you change anything (like contrast or scale etc.), but the strange thing for me is, I only copy the clip from a sequence and I paste it in another sequence on top of another clip and all of a sudden I have to render it again.

When I make the track below the just copied clip invisible, the red bar on top of the just copied clip disappears and turns green again. So it has something to do with the fact there’s a clip below the clip (although opacity on both clips is 100%)

Normally, that shouldn’t happen I think?

Thank you for your help,

Lieven

Thanks both of you for your help. Yesterday I discovered perhaps the problem. I’ve made a little test movie, on which I’ve made several colored zones (100%, 90%, 80% and 70%). Then I rendered the 3 movies (I’m in Europe, so we work in the PAL format) in dv pal (1.067) in pal widescreen (16:9 1.422) and in HD anamorphic (1.333).

Looking at the results on the television, I’ve got 10% cut off left and right with dv pal and none on top and botton. I’ve got 10% cut off left, right, bottom and top on HD anamorphic, and I’ve got a very strange result in widescreen: almost 20% left and right, and bottom and top cut off.

So I’ll render it in the SAME settings as the project was: HD anamorphic, and then my safety zone will be ok.
The only problem is that then there will be a difference for renders for PC. I’ll have to resize the render then so that I get the frame as I wanted it to (so that I cut off the unwanted 10% myself).
