VideoStudio :: Custom Resolution Profile And Aspect Ratio

Oct 25, 2013

I have used X4 for about two years and X6 for the past couple of months. I cannot figure out how the create more rendering options under Share -> Create Video File. For example, if I want to use the MPEG codec but a custom resolution. Often custom is greyed out and not selectable. In free software such as ffmpeg or Virtual Dub I can create video as any resolution, aspect ratio, or codec. VS options seem to be very limited to these prepackaged choices. For example, some people have described moving a .DLL to the Coral folder to get custom codecs under the Create Video -> custom option. I'd rather not have to always render in VS and then recodec in another software.

My biggest challenge is the new Instagram format. It is basically 640x640 webm format. But I can import MPEG h264 without issue. My goal is to setup a 1:1 640x640 profile so I don't always have to game and stretch titles to display properly in the final version.

Photoshop Elements :: Resolution When Images Are Cropped To Preset Aspect Ratio

Mar 12, 2014

When an image is cropped using the cropping tool to a preset aspect ratio (without specifying a resolution), the resolution of the cropped image is different than the original. I'd like to be able to understand exactly how this new resolution is determined and be able to calculate it myself. The help section of the software just says, "If you use a preset size, the resolution changes to fit the preset." But I'd like to know the details of how the resolution changes.

Photoshop :: Custom Aspect Ratio Cropping

Jan 6, 2006

I want to crop a picture to fit my new 24" 16:10 monitor. The res is 1920x1200. I don't want the picture to be stretched in any way, but I'll accept decreasing the resolution to fit my 1920x1200. So my question is, can I force the crop selection to turn 16:10?

Photoshop :: Find Size And Resolution Option In Aspect Ratio Drop Down Menu For Crop Tool

Jun 1, 2013

while looking through certain tutorials on the new crop system i came across many that referenced the above mentioned size and resolution option in the  access ratio drop down menu.  They all mention a dialog box which then appears which looks really useful, however my version doesn't have this option.

VideoStudio :: X4 Rendering With 4:3 Aspect Ratio

Jul 11, 2011

I am currently using a trial version of VS X4 (testing if suitable for our needs) and I am using an instant project that I downloaded in the extras. It was one large picture and then 4 pictures scrolling on the left hand side. I modified it so that I had a background on the main video track, the one large picture a mp4 video captured with Camtasia Studio 7, and three pictures scrolling on the left hand side.

I want to have a 4:3 aspect ratio, as these would be going on a website and need to match previous tutorial videos. The video I put in the overlay track is captured at 1024 x 768 and I have tried a variety of sizes of the back ground, (matching aspect ratio and not) and I cannot seem to find or create a suitable template to create a good quality (I.e. can still read the menus in the window of the screen capture mp4) video. I don't much care what the output type is, as long as it is supported by Camtasia Studio 7 since I render there to create a HTML script, to be used on the website.

VideoStudio :: Can't Keep X3 From Changing The Aspect Ratio

Oct 8, 2010

I am using VS Pro X3.

I have a .mov file in 16:9 ratio. I need to add a picture to the front of the movie so that this image appears in the player I am using when the movie is loaded and ready to play.

EVERY time I try to create the new movie, the movie aspect is reformatted and I get black bars across the top and bottom of my movie. I have been everything I can find in the program - using custom formats and defining the exact dimensions. I must have tried this over a dozen times looking for something stupid that I am missing but I can not figure this out.

The original file is quicktime (.mov) 960X540. If I play this file in my player (its a flash player) it plays clean in the 16:9 aspect with no black borders. I do not care whether the file is .mov, mp4, or flv. The player supports all of these (and a few more common types). This will be web hosted so I am concerned about file size. Step one for me is to get VS to create a movie file in the appropriate aspect ratio without black bars!!!

VideoStudio :: Pro X4 - Aspect Ratio Incorrect?

Jul 3, 2012

I'm having a problem with VideoStudio where it is not correctly detecting the aspect ratio of the video.

The video was created by HandBrake by converting a DVD to an MP4. VLC Player correctly detects the aspect ratio and displays it fine. VS doesn't.

In VS the video is coming up as 4:3 and so when played, it has black pillars on either side.

How can I get VS to interpret the aspect ratio correctly, or even override it?

The video files details (MediaInfo):

General
Complete name : C:TempHandbrakeVts 01 1-2.mp4
Format : MPEG-4
Format profile : Base Media / Version 2
Codec ID : mp42

VideoStudio :: Changing Aspect Ratio?

Apr 23, 2012

I have VideoStudio ProX4 Ultimate.Purchased before Christmas but this first time I have used it. I created my project,changed the ratio from 16:9 to 4:3. Burned the project and when I played it I could tell it was not in the correct aspect ratio. I went back, opened the project, checked the ratio aspect and it was set at 4:3. I then opened settings and it was at 720x480 29.97 which should be right. After burning I found it was still in wrong ratio. I opened the created file in MediaInfo and it showed it was 16:9 720x480 29.97. Am I missing something? How do I change it to 4:3. I have version 14.2.0.23.

VideoStudio :: Rendered Files - Odd Aspect Ratio Changes

Nov 15, 2012

Using X5, I've been assembling video clips taken on holidays into small, specific topic mini-movies (say about 2-3 mins long each) for friends and family, and I've noticed an odd effect of rendering using the MPEG optimiser option when creating a video file from a set of project parts.

All the source clips have a 16.9 aspect ratio. The project file has full, trimmed, and cut clips, plus text, voice over and music.

Put together in a project file, the various clips fill the small or large display windows, as one would expect. Trimmed and cut clips made not difference to the display when playing. But the rendered result of that project file shows irregular "jumping" of the image aspect ratio: sometimes, it's the full display window, at other times it looks like the image is full width but there are black bars top and bottom, and still other times the reverse - bars on the side with a full vertical image.

Those latter characteristics are symptomatic of a 4:3 image converted to 16:9, and I promptly checked to make sure the sources were all 16:9, and they were. The jumping seems to happen within rendered clips and when a clip transitions from one to the next, but not every time. When it happens within a clip, the display 'flickers" as the aspect ratio changes and its that flicker that originally drew my attention to what seemed to be happening.

VideoStudio :: Aspect Ratio Keeps Switching On DVD Playback?

Sep 5, 2011

I use VideoStudio Pro x3 and am having a problem with aspect ratio switching on DVD playback. All the video source files in the project have the same properties:

Frame Width: 704
Frame Height: 576

The project properties are set to 16:9 and I have followed the Guide on Widescreen overlays. The preview window always displays in widescreen no problem. After creating a DVD via the DVD creator, when I playback the movie it switches between 4:3 and 16:9 sometimes within the same clip but always at the same places.

VideoStudio :: How To Adjust Aspect Ratio Of Video

Aug 27, 2011

I'm having a difficult time dialing in how to adjust the aspect ratio of my video. I'm sure this is easy to do, but I'm

Some of the clips I'm inserting are wide, and some are standard TV size. I did the "Fit to Sceen Size in Overlay Track" but how do I change what that final sceen size is? I'd like to be able to either make my project wide and have the TV size clips automatically stretch to fit, or make it TV size (is that 720x480?) and have the wide clips squish to fit.

Not sure which way I'm going to go yet, but is there a way to make the clips automatically do either in the window/final product? As some of the clips are playing, I'd like to slowly zoom-in. Is that possible to do?

VideoStudio :: Full Body Shots And Aspect Ratio

May 5, 2012

To get a full body shot, I have to turn my camera on its side. I start with a 16:9 aspect ratio. After the shots are loaded into the program, the figures are always a little distorted to the short side. This is always after I rotate the video 90 degrees so that it is upright. Is there a solution to this problem?

Also, sometimes when I use a still image in the video track and a video in the pip track, the still image won't fill up the entire screen. This situation also occurs when a video has been rotated 90 degrees.

VideoStudio :: X5 Won't Recognize 16:9 M2TS Aspect Ratio For Import

May 20, 2012

I independently verified the M2TS files using MediaInfo.exe to identify that they were 16:9 ratio. But Video Studio Pro X5 seems to "misread them" at import as 4:3 ratio.(both as I hover cursor over file before importing into VSx5 and after import) The result is that the loaded file in VSx5 has black vertical framing added on the left and right of the video image in the preview window and any derivitive video files. Additional Info: the M2TS files prior to loading into VSX5 play in Windows Media Player at 16:9 aspect ratio with no black vertical framing.

There don't appear to be any patches yet for VSX5. Since obviously the VSX5 file attributes themselves are whats in question here, I've put both the output of MedioInfo.exe and VSX5 for the M2TS files here:

MediaInfo Output:

VideoStudio :: Adjusting Photos For Video Use (pixel Aspect Ratio)

Mar 1, 2012

I have VS X2 and I want to put some photos into a video I'm making.

I have video from a Panasonic PV-GS200 which gives a 24 bit, 720x480 AVI file. I have the Project Properties set to:

NTSC drop frame (29.97 fps)
Microsoft AVI files
24 bits, 720 x 480, 4:3, 29.97 fps
Lower Field First
DV Video Encoder -- type 1

And the Preferences for Image set to "Keep aspect ratio".

I have a small handbook from Ulead (from 2004 when I purchased video gear) which says that the pixel aspect ratio of DV is rectangular whereas the pixels in my photos are square. And this difference will cause photographs to become distorted as those square photo pixels are stretched to become rectangular pixels in the video.

My question is: do I need to crop my photograph correctly before I insert it into the timeline in VS X2, or is there an option/feature within VS which will handle this transformation for me?

Here is how the book says to crop photos:
for 720x480 NTSC-DV crop photos to 720x576
for 720x576 PAL-DV crop photos to 704x576

It further recommended using PNG file type for photos and to keep the image dimension (resolution) low, e.g. 720x576, in order to avoid artifacts in the video - only doubling the above crop dimensions if a pan & zoom filter are going to be employed. An image dimension of 720x576 seems really low to me but I am not used to working with video.

VideoStudio :: Picture Doesn't Fill Screen - 16:9 Aspect Ratio

Mar 4, 2013

Using VS2, 16:9 aspect ratio (I believe all the clips are 16:9 720 X 480), with non-square rendering checked,

Looks fine on the computer.

When I burn a DVD the image doesn't fill the TV screen- black border on all four sides. However, one title did extend past the image on the left side.

Sort of like this:

----------------------------------
- --------------------- -
- - - -
- - - -
- one title sticks left- -
- --------------------- -
----------------------------------

Why I have bars on all sides, not just on two of them?

VideoStudio :: How To Preserve Title Text Font Size / Aspect Ratio

May 12, 2013

I've created a test video with titles, fade ins, fade outs, etc - and everything looks great in the preview, but I noticed after actually creating the video (H.264 640x480, 4:3), the title fonts get resized (they look compressed/horizontally squished).

Is there any way to freeze or preserve the exact font size(s)/aspect ratio of the title text so that it looks the same regardless of format I save out to later? I've poked around to see if there was a right mouse menu option to "lock aspect ratio" (or set "Auto Resize Title = Off") but to no avail.

If not, would a workaround be to save the text in a jpeg and fade that in/out? ...or will that get resized, as well?

Photoshop :: Aspect Ratio Change?

Jul 11, 2007

I just joined and I'm a complete newbie at Photoshop, though I'm fairly interested in it.

I was wondering if it's possible to change the aspect ratio of a 5:4 (1600x1200) image to 16:10 (1680x1050) without stretching the image or contorting it.

I've tried resizing, but all that does is screw up the image and/or make it look all crappy.

Photoshop :: Pixel Aspect Ratio

Feb 26, 2008

Since installing Photoshop CS2, whenever I open a file (.tiff), PS selects the incorrect aspect ratio (a custom ratio of 0.5, when in fact the file is meant to have an aspect ratio of 1.0).

1. Is the aspect ratio stored in the file as an attribute, or does Photoshop guess the ratio from some other attribute?

2. Can I force PS to open all files with an aspect ratio of 1.0?

In older versions of Photoshop the files opened correctly. When I open the .tiff in a text editor, I can't find any attribute named 'aspect ratio' or somesuch.

Photoshop :: Pixel Aspect Ratio

Nov 7, 2008

I'm running Photoshop CS2 (9) on XP pro. I have a bunch of tiffs made from scans of 36" x 48" documents. They all are coming in with a strange distortion. A box pops up: "Pixel aspect ration correction is for preview purposes only. Turn it off for maximum image quality." I know how to turn it off, but I cannot afford the time to save 144 huge files. Can this default be reset? To reset this default to "square", I have tried everything short of deleting pixel aspect ratios. I never want anything but "square". What will it hurt to delete pixel aspect ratios?
