|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board Is getting a 16X9 video possible on my SS page? Eric Seals, Photographer Detroit | MI | United States | Posted: 12:15 AM on 07.28.09 ->> Hi, I'm hoping someone has had some success with getting a 16X9 video on their page and can help me out with my page. I just updated the page including one video and frame grabs and it's cropping the video to what looks like 4X3. I shot it in 16X9 and would love to have it that way on my page. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks Eric  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Even went of FCP and quicktime forums trying to look for info and had no luck.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Then it should be 4:3 but have the 16:9 video with black letterbox bars on the top and bottom. Might have to download the older iMovie HD to do this. I remember importing some 720p HD video once into iMovie HD and with the settings I had it letterbox it. Then you export this letterboxed movie in QuickTime format to upload. There should be a way to do it in FCP by setting up your output format, but iMovie HD might just be plain easier to figure out.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

If you ever want to switch job locations for a couple of weeks let me know, Detroit's no Hawaii but we do have some sand and water somewhere around here so perhaps it would remind you of home :) Eric  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?
