You’re right. I’d just viewed it again in FC at 100% and it is interlaced.

Thank you for explaining it to me.

as long as it will look fine on TV…

Hi,
I know this is an old thread, but I am new to video editing. and I am facing a similar problem.

I have my sequence at frame size 1440×1080 anamorphic 16:9 off
and I need to change it to frame size 720×576 with anamorphic 16:9 on.

Ive done the make new sequence with the correct setting, copy clips from the old sequence then paste it to the new one. then conform all clips to sequence.

everything works beautifully except that the video now looks pixelated and the movement was bumpy.

whats wrong with this? how to fix it? does this means that I need to redo everything again? I have done the video editing of 4 sequences and I was just told that I was working with the wrong setting.

HELP!

Hi,

I accidentally start a project with:
frame size 1440×1080, anamorphic 16:9 unticked

I need to change it to:
frame size 720c576 (PAL CCIR 601 5:4)
with anamorphic 16:9 ticked.

How do I do this without redoing all the sequences again. I have done 4 sequences with that setting and I need to change all of them.

I’ve tried your method of ‘conform to sequence’ but the result makes the clip pixelated. How do I fix this without decreasing the resolution? the movement was bumpy and pixelated.

Thanks!

Hi,
I am pretty new to final cut pro, and I am having a similar problem.
I am working on Final Cut pro 7 and compressing my video using Compressor.

the supplied videos have:
1440×1080 framesize
HD 1440×1080 pixel aspect

I need to make a 16:9 video for DVD (Im in Australia btw so working on PAL).

I am working on the sequence setting:
Frame size 1440×1080 [aspect ratio HD(1440×1880) (16:9)]
pixel aspect ratio: PAL – ccir 601 (720×576)
anamorphic 16:9 unticked

It looks fine on FCP. but when I compressed it using Compressor,
under the video format it says aspect ratio 4:3.
at which the final video looks fine but have letterbox on all edge since its 4:3

when I change the aspect ratio on Compressor to 16:9, the final result looks squashed (the people looks shorter and fatter).

how to fix this? where did I do wrong?
I was told to that I need to change my framesize on the sequence setting to 720×576 [aspect ratio: CCIR 601/DV PAL (5:4)
But that does not seems to work as the compressed result (from compressor) still squashed. Compressor’s video format’s aspect ratio still shows 4:3

What should I do to make it compressed as 16:9 without having a squashed result??

any help will be appreciated…..

THANKS!
