A few years ago I've completed a film, regular Dv Pal, 720*576 Pixel Pal CCIR 601.
At the time I applied a "fake" widescreen with black bars up and bottom. Now the Tv channel want's to broadcast it again but in the meantime they went 16/9 ! SD They are not too happy with the idea of pilar boxing to preserve the original format (an resolution !) in that case there would be a pilar and a letter boxing ... therefore a smaller image into those big screens of today. An editor captured the Dv tape into a Symphony, I guess with anamorphic settings because the image was squeezed and zoomed it. And the result was a desaster. I want to re-do it myself in Final Cut, with some denoising and doing that zooming with Red Giant instant HD or the BCC plug. (I guess I can do that) So I will end up with a sequence " Anamorphic 16:9. Besides zooming I don't have a clear view of the treatment for the image. If I drop a clip for testing on a anamorphic Dv Pal sequence, (ticked "Anamorphic 16:9 in Sequence Settings the clip gets his 33,33 aspect ratio in the Distort section of the Motion tab. and I can zoom, all seems fine in Fcp Canvas. But if I try to see it on an external monitor with the view settings on " MXO 2 DV 16:9° it is squeezed ! whitch I don't find logical.
What Jude said. FCP will simply flag the clip/timeline as 16:9 and display it as 16:9 in the viewer. On the external monitor, you will usually need to turn on the 16:9/aspect switch.

the monitoring has several settings for widescreen. I am not in 4/3 anymore in Fcp sequence and I am " Wide " on the HDMI monitor
everythings looks ok in the monitor if the output of the MXO 2 is still " regular square SD" . Maybe my process is wrong. what would you guys do if you were asked the same ? make a zoomed out 16:9° séquence out of (letterboxed) 720*576 pal sequence
