Re: Adobe Media Encoder

Honestly, it looks like AME CS4 is taking the non-square pixels and squishing them down to square and leaving black top and bottom.
I was going to try what Chris said. Send a test to a couple of stations with the setting set to square pixels and find out what happens at their end. I'm afraid that they may say it's fine when it's not though... When I did my tests here, the side got cut off.
Although, I'm thinking it may be something in the way the editor is handling the source file. Even though everything looks to be correct in the properties of the file. When I render something out in AE to any of the codecs mentioned earlier, it doesn't have any problems in AME.
