VideoStudio :: X4 Rendering With 4:3 Aspect Ratio
Jul 11, 2011I 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 :: X4 - Aspect Ratio On DV-dvd Playback
Feb 23, 2013When editing DV from my old mini dv camcorder, how can I get the final edit to fill the screen without the black side bars after puting on to a dvd and playing back on a 1080x1920 tv. does VS pro x4 have a setting to eliminate the black bars?

Oct 8, 2010I 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!!!

Jul 3, 2012I'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?

VideoStudio :: Changing Aspect Ratio?
Apr 23, 2012I 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.
View 7 Replies View RelatedVideoStudio :: Rendered Files - Odd Aspect Ratio Changes
Nov 15, 2012Using 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, 2011I 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 Change Aspect Attribute For Given Clip
Jan 1, 2011In transferring my old home movies from previously captured .AVI files (from tape to raw .AVI) to DVDs over my Christmas vacation, I have finally come to the point in my video tape timeline where I made the switch to 16:9. It's on my first video from 2002 and unfortunately I flipped the 'widescreen' switch on my camcorder mid-tape on that 2002 Mini-DV tape. So on this .AVI file I have mixed aspect ratios. When I pull that .AVI file into X3, the attribute is set to 4:3, so the 2nd half this file is out of whack.
What I've done is split the .AVI by scenes so I could work with them separately. I've created a DVD compliant video file from all the 4:3 scenes and now I need to work with the 16:9 scenes, but they still carry the 4:3 attribute so X3 displays them incorrectly. I don't see a way to change the attribute of these clips.
how to go about changing the attribute from 4:3 to 16:9 for video that was shot in 16:9?
VideoStudio :: How To Adjust Aspect Ratio Of Video
Aug 27, 2011I'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, 2012To 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 :: Aspect Ratios For Dummies And File Size?
Jun 30, 2011difference between DVD 4:3 and DVD 16:9. How should I be saving my file if it is to be shown on 18" tv screens ? Or does how I save it depend on something to do with the photographs I have in the slideshow? Will saving it as 4:3 reduce the overall file size ? Or is there another way to reduce the file size so I can fit more onto a DVD? At the moment I can only fit just over an hour onto a 4.7gb DVD. video editing dummy that I am.

May 20, 2012I 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:

VideoStudio :: Custom Resolution Profile And Aspect Ratio
Oct 25, 2013I 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.
VideoStudio :: Adjusting Photos For Video Use (pixel Aspect Ratio)
Mar 1, 2012I 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, 2013Using 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- -

VideoStudio :: How To Preserve Title Text Font Size / Aspect Ratio
May 12, 2013I'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?

VideoStudio :: Saving A Still Image
May 2, 2012I have VS11+ and I want to save a frame of my project as a still image. The project and footage is
PAL (25 fps)
Microsoft AVI files
24 bits, 720 x 576, 16:9, 25 fps
Lower Field First
DV Video Encoder -- type 1
DV Audio -- PAL, 48.000 kHz, 16 Bit, Stereo
I have clicked on Save as Still Image and the frame appears in the Image folder, although it is square looking with a black border all round. If I put it in the timeline I can make it into 16:9 like the rest of the footage. But where is the image actually saved so that I can use it in other media? How can I decide whether to save it as JPEG or whatever? And why is it in a black box and quite square if it was shot in, and the project is, 16:9? Can I save it as a 16:9 image?
VideoStudio :: No 1080p Saving In Pro X3?
Mar 20, 2011My Canon HF S21 is set to record at PF25 (i.e 25 fps PROGRESSIVE), and also I choose the highest recording quality : MXP (1920 X 1080, 24 Mbps). When I choose to save the .MTS file here`s what happens :
1. Choosing H.264-MAIN in the Compression tab, the video data rate is limited to 20000 KBps.
2. To have 25 fps (that is, PAL) AND progressive playback, my only choice is to output a file at 1280 X 720. If I choose 1920 X 1080 , AND Frame-based, the Frame Rate drop-down menu becomes greyed out at 30 fps ! Of course, at the Corel VideoStudio tab, I have unticked the "Perform non-sqare pixel rendering", because the source video is made of raster (i.e square) pixels, unlike the HDV 1440 X 1080 recordings.
3. Choosing MPEG-4 HD, the Properties of the video file to be rendered appear as follows :
24bits, 1920 X 1080, 30fps
Frame Based
H.264 Main Profile video, 15000 Kbps
32000 Hz, 16bit, stereo
MPEG AAC Audio, 128Kbps
4. No luck either if I choose Blu ray > PAL H.264 (1920 X1080). The "improvement" appears to be the VBRof 22700 Kbps, but VideoStudio insists on rendering interlaced (Upper Field first) out of my progressive video. The same rendering settings appear if I choose AVCHD > PAL HD-1920. I shall try the Template Manager and see if I can convince VS NOT to alter in any way the quality of the source clip. Meanwhile, I am very interested to read about your experiences with 1080p.
VideoStudio :: Saving Attributes
Jun 15, 2013Quite often I have footage from two cams to create a movie. The cams show pretty different video response characteristics. By adjusting WB, Gamma, Contrast...I can correct and match both footages. Because VS has a not so handy parameter setting UI, it would be fine if I could kind of "smart package" the attributes for a particular camcorder, so I don't have to fill in the attributes for each project with a particalar camcorder footage. Is there a way to get there?

Jul 4, 2012Is there not a way to save the progress of your timeline? So far my workflow has me editing every clip in library mode, then transferring it all down to the timeline so I can insert music, titles, transitions, etc.....and due to the size of my project, I wasn't able to finish before leaving tonight. So I saved everything (or so I thought), but when I opened my project later in VS again, there was nothing in the timeline! (it saved all of my edited files above in the library, but all of my work on titles, overlays and music was lost). Did I do something wrong, or does this program force you make all of those detailed edits and additions in one fell swoop without any chance of saving or taking a break?

Apr 27, 2011My question: I prefer to shoot my videos in 720p, to optimally match my TV. I see that in VideoStudio, the only 720p option is by using HDV. Is there any other way to get 1280x720 output? I see that AVCHD and Blu-Ray only offers 1980 and 1440 options, both which resize my videos (which I do not want). I'd like to save back as 1280x720 MP4, but VS's MP4 option doesn't provide this.
(Now that I think about it, why does VideoStudio offer 1440 rather than 1280? I thought 1920x1080 and 1280x720 were the common HD formats.)
