Black Side Lines

Post by sismithin0 »

I have captured a few videos, and some in sequence are fine and full screen while others have black lines down the left and right side? Whats this about. say for example clips 12345 all in order, clips 2 4 & 5 will have black lines down the side of the video making it smaller, how can I over come this?
Thanks

Hi Simon

What version of VS are you using :?:

It sounds as though the clips have been captured to different settings.

Right click on each clip in the timeline and select properties.
Are the properties the same for each clip. :?:

Do the project properties (File / Project Properties) match the clip properties :?:

Hope this Helps

It sounds like you're mixing aspect ratios (4:3 vs. 16:9), and some of the clips are letterboxed.

it could also be a 768 (PAL full) vs 720 (DV) pixels/line problem
Check if they all have the same Fit to project/Preserve original size setting
