No luck.

I’ve tried several things, changing settings in the pan crop and matched the resolution as Danny suggested.
Oh why can’t it be what you see is what you get on the timeline lol.
Well I haven’t figured out what is wrong yet, but that’s part of the learning process sometimes….when you find a solution. Otherwise its just a problem.

I think I might try restarting on these arrows again, and start fresh.

If anyone has any other ideas, i’ll be checking.

Thanks again!

I’ll give it a shot. S

It is on full, and even full screen on a 2nd monitor for double checking. Still no avail though some are rendering correctly so there must be some difference I am failing to see. Maybe I have tried to match output aspect or source aspect somehow which I don’t reccall.

Ahhh!

Gotcha, and yep, it was something very simple 🙂

Thank you so much! I should’ve looked in the browser for all the other settings I can configure.

Thanks COW surfers, and Rafael!

Now my project should look a bit more professional.

Appreciatively

Hey Rafael, thanks

I know what you mean, by changing the aspect ratio to square in the sequence settings. But the footage I’m using needs to use the DVCPRO HD720p60 setting to be displayed correctly.

Regardless
I tried changing it to square, but it squishes my footage, then I check anamorphic and it looked fine, it was just like the DVCPROHD720 setting , but bah….my image is still stretched. I think i’m going to just accept the distorted look (until a solution presents itself), it is still more than readable, it is just not ideal.

Thanks

Dennis

I tried it on an existing sequence and a new one. It sounded promising but it still manages to stretch my image :/

Thanks

Rafael, i’m not quite sure how to tell fcp to interpret individual assets differently in that aspect.

The ppt exports the 4:3 slide images as 960×720 which FCP will always automatically bump up to stretch to fit the 1280×720, if you are using the DVCPRO HD 720p60fps. I tried testing a 961×721 resolution of the same image edited in PS, and it comes in natively. I knew that footage would get stretched in that format, since it is the way that it packs that data, but guess it effects any stills of the 960×720 reso as well. So, just export the settings of the slides tweaked ever so slightly is the solution i’m going to go with for now, unless someone can suggest a cleaner solution. Which would help, since the graphs/etc on the slides are looking a little fuzzy in this process.

Thanks for replying guys.
Sincerely

Ohki

No, I’m exporting as 4:3 in powerpoint.

I double checked in photoshop with the ppt slide, and the bigger background and it’s fine before FCP. I just need to tell FCP not to stretch my image however that is done. It is probably something very simple to do, but sometimes that isn’t intuitive to a new user.

Thank you David for the feedback.

Well, that is what I usually do, I just drag straight into the timeline and it is stretched. In the viewer, or whatever, when i double click on it in the imported files folder, it looks fine. I tried the remove attributes option before my other post, but did not see anything pertaining to the way it was stretched. nothing was highlighted.

Guess I’ll try some other measurements in Power point to export.

Thanks Paul and Simon. I knew it would be something very simple, I just somehow didn’t interpret that single keyframe in the paths to be all the motion created by the pen tool.

Thanks so much!
