Re: HDV aspect ratio
by Jerry Alto on Apr 25, 2008 at 6:30:23 pm

Johanna- . I just looked at a Sony HDV file in quicktime.

It says:
Format: Apple HDV 1080i60, 1440 x 1080 (1888 x 1062), Millions
16-bit Integer (Big Endian), Stereo, 48.000 kHz

Normal Size: 1920 x 1080 pixels

The same file in an HDV sequence in FCP under the sequence settings reads:

HD (1440x1080) (16:9), Pixel Aspect Ratio: (1440x1080), Anamorphic: (unchecked)

It is important to understand that FCP flags native HDV footage so that it imports, edits and exports in the proper 16x9 aspect ratio. You don't need to adjust the footage once it has been captured. Is there a possibility that the footage was shot with a Canon or JVC camera which has a different aspect ratio then you are attempting to import via a Sony deck?

HTH,
Jerry
