File format mismatch

[BrianCee]

No - I have clearly said in my last two posts 16:9 - Graham and me say the same.

since you have now said you have some 16:9 in your clips

[dealoox]

My friend I think that it's 16:9..
Because I have 1 video that I check the properties and it was 1920X1080.
Is it 16:9? If no, So how can I check which each video? 16.9 or 4.3.
thank!

[BrianCee]

That is an HD video - will be 16:9

do you understand widescreen TV - do you have widescreen in Israel - widescreen is 16:9

Old TV's were 4:3 which is nearly square.

most people just look at a video and can see if it is wide - but the properties will tell you

see this image which I showed you before - can you see the difference in the shapes.

1. So Plasma tv is it 16:9 and Projector Screen is it 4:3, right?
2. So you mean, If I have in the video just videos that are 4:3 so choose 4:3 and if I have 1 or more of the videos 16:9 and 4:3 in the ame clip choose 16:9, right?
thanks!

My friend,
If you can answer on he 2 questions that I asked you.
Finally,
Now I ask somone about it and he told me that He prefer to save on dv and not dvd format.
What is the differenece between them?
thanks!

Plasma TV will be 16:9

Projector screen could be 16:9 - different for different projectors and screens - what does your club use - ASK THEM

DV is digital video it is a high quality file format - looks good on computer - big file size - cannot be used to make a DVD which will play on all players.

DVD format is mpeg - slightly lower quality - smaller file size - can be used for making DVD

If you have in the video ALL clips 4:3 then choose 4:3 - if you have some widescreen some standard choose 16:9

perhaps your friend could help you with all your other questions.

projector will display 16.9 or 4.3, it will show what you tell it to show via the computer.
As for dv or dvd it depends as Brian says on what you want the end product to be.

Are you playing a dvd on a dvd player to the projector - choose dvd or are you going to use windows media payer to play the video to the projector choose dv

[dealoox]

Ok my friend,
What do I need to ask the club?
thanks!

[dealoox]

My friend?

[BrianCee]

You said you wanted to show your video at your club

I said ask your club what their projector can show - can it use widescreen or only standard or both - - I would think both but I don't know your club.

[dealoox]

Heheh of course yu don't know my club.
My friend asked the club and they said 16:9.
Maybe it also can shows 4:3 and they don't say that, I don't know.
So I do 16:9 but for example if will it be both what will I need choose?
thanks!

[BrianCee]

OK - go with 16:9 for every thing

[dealoox]

My friend,
For example if will it be both what will I need choose?
thank you very much friend!
