Hi, the DV pal sequence settings are: Pixel Aspect – PAL CCIR 601; Frame rate: 720×576; Field dominance: Lower (even); Compressor: DV PAL

Thanks to you both. No, I did not change sequence settings at all. I changed the MP4s to DV pal on compressor but still the aspect ratio got squashed on my DV pal sequence. I read on another site that a DV Pal sequence (which is what mine currently is) is inflexible with aspect ratios of other media, is this the reason why I am not having much luck here? Trouble is when I tried to change the sequence settings, the bulk of the footage I am editing lost it’s own aspect ratio. Beginning to think I am stuck with squished images and movie clips… Help anyone?”
