FYI, I was able to solve the problem of different video sizes for 16:9 and 4:3 footage by shrinking the 16:9 video width (Motion effect) to 75%. The Interpret Footage function only seemed to change the video size within Premiere Pro and not when the file was exported.

Still blurry though, although it’s not a huge deal since the blurriness doesn’t export.

Hey guys, thanks for your help.

Well I rendered the all the 16:9 footage within my 4:3 project, but I still get the blurriness in my COMPUTER Monitor. And my computer has decent power – P4 3.2 Ghz, w/ 1 GB of dual channel OCZ RAM, and 256MB Radeon x600 vidcard. I exported a sequence w/ 16:9 footage and 4:3 footage to AVI – and the blurriness was gone. However, a new problem cropped up: the 16:9 displays in its widescreen format, while the 4:3 uses its regular format too – I can’t have the video size changing during my video!

So I still have the blurriness problem, it’s not as big of a deal, since I know it won’t export out, but it does make editing that video a little annoying. Have you guys used both 16:9 and 4:3 footage in a project?

And now I have the new problem of the video size changing with the clip. Arrggh!

I wouldn’t normally bother w/ trying to use this 16:9 footage, but I’ve got a very tight deadline and I can’t reshoot any of it.

Thanks a lot for your help with this.
PS: I shot everything on 24P, both 4:3 and 16:9 footage. I don’t think that has to do with the problem.
