Save Current Frame as Image SIZE problem

Post by jparnold »

When using VideoStudio v8 and I "Capture Current Frame as Image" the image while being 720 X 576 in size is slightly squashed horizontally and there is a small black vertical bar on each side of the image saved. I then have to resize this image (I use Paint Shop Pro) so that it is returned to normal (I do this be resizing the horizontal to 768).
It seems that there is a mix up here between PAL and NTSC.
I never had this problem using VideoStudio v6.
Is there a preferences setting to fix this?
Thanks John

jparnold,

Go to File/Preferences, click the Edit tab, ensure that your Image resampling option is set to Keep aspect ratio.

The image sampling option is already set to Keep aspect ratio.
I have just tried setting it to Fit to Project size and it now seems to work correctly.
I am sure in version 6 I had it set to Keep Aspect ratio.
Thanks for the 'lead' though.

My bad, I had it backwards! ;-)
