Aspect conversion in QT7Posted by Jude Cotter
We have an increasing number of clips coming in to one of my workplaces that are 1280 x 544. We need them to be 1280 x 720 with black bars to be able to run on a dedicated screen in the right aspect ratio.
Has anyone got a method for doing this without having to go through FCP? It's an intern job, and since the clips are usually MP4s we don't want to have to convert them, import to FCP, export, then convert again for the screen. I had a look at masks in QT7 but can only find ways to remove letterboxing and pillarboxing, not add.
I've used QuickTime Player Pro, which has a simple aspect ratio setting for H X W and a checkbox as to whether you want them locked together, under Movie Properties>Video Track. Use it all the time.

You can create a droplet in Compressor to do just that, and your intern will have the easiest job in the world.
