I have a TV that the ratio is 1366 X 768 and I need to render out some 16:9 video to it with a few layers of graphics. What is the best way to go about this?
View Full Version : I know the TV size and now need to change the aspect ratio - best way?

What is the best way to go about this? Jonathan Palfrey November 21st, 2009, 06:06 AM Just render it out as 1280x720 and make sure you keep the graphics within the "safe" area of the screen. You can check this by pressing on a particular button above the preview window.

Louis Maddalena November 21st, 2009, 10:57 AM Yep :) 1280x 720 will cover your screen, like stated above just make sure all your text is with in title safe. David Delaney November 21st, 2009, 12:21 PM thanks for that - pixel ratio stay the same? Right now I am rendering it out in wmv and also a DVD later... David Delaney November 21st, 2009, 02:49 PM I am in the process of rendering it now at 1280 X 720 and it looks really stretched left to right on the preview monitor... Joe Parker November 28th, 2009, 10:09 PM Then your preview monitor is set incorrectly. These days you really only have two choices - 1080i/p or 720p (in ATSC anyway). Don't make the fool mistake of rendering to some really odd resolution just because that's the native resolution of your one TV. |
