MacBook Pro :: Screen Resolution Aspect Ratios And Movies

Dec 30, 2009

To me this does not make any sense: Quote ....

# Supported resolutions: 1440 by 900 (native), 1280 by 800, 1152 by 720, 1024 by 640, and 800 by 500 pixels at 16:10 aspect ratio; 1024 by 768, 800 by 600, and 640 by 480 pixels at 4:3 aspect ratio; 1024 by 768, 800 by 600, and 640 by 480 pixels at 4:3 aspect ratio stretched; 720 by 480 pixels at 3:2 aspect ratio; 720 by 480 pixels at 3:2 aspect ratio stretched

No sense what so ever. That said, if I want to watch movies in the highest possible resolution and have it fill up the screen completely (no letterbox), what screen resolution do I use and what ratiodo I buy my DVD's in? A friend recommended 3:2?

Intel Mac :: Resize Existing Partition & Creating A Second One On Lion?

Apr 6, 2012

This question concerns the new mid-2011 27" iMac I haven't used yet The internal HD's size is 1TB. Before I start using it, I'd like to:

1. resize the exiting partition (containing Mac OS X Lion) in order to make it smaller (about 100GB)

2. create a new partition in the remaining space. I would use as a data repository (like an external Thunderbolt hard disk).

OS X :: Widescreen Better Than Old 4:3 Aspect Ratio?

Oct 28, 2009

So why is Widescreen better than the "old" 4:3 aspect ratio? I haven't seen a website/document where content is arranged 16:9, is this seriously JUST for movies? I just started using my old Thinkpad t60 again, and its 15" whcih feels allot bigger than my 15.4" MacBook Pro. who exactly needs widescreen andy why are they still measure monitors in inch wouldn't it make more sense to do a Pixel/cm^2 ?? plain cm^2 would be better as well

Software :: Preserve Aspect Ratio On LCD?

May 11, 2009

I have a 2nd gen MBP hooked up to a wide screen LCD (1680x1050) panel and I occasionally play games that don't naively support the wide aspect ratio and they get all stretched out when scaled to fit the screen. Is there any way to tell OS X to center the "odd" resolutions in the panel (leaving black bars) when a game wants to use that resolution? I'd much rather have a smaller picture than have it distorted.

QuickTime :: Different Display Aspect Ratios Between Mac And PC

Jun 5, 2012

I am working with some NTSC DV .mov files (720x480). When I view them in OS X Lion (Quicktime 10.1), the Quicktime Movie Inspector shows the video correctly at 4:3 Aspect Ratio with the correct dimensions of 640x480 (using square pixels). However, when I open the same video in Windows 7 using Quicktime 7.7.2, It shows the video as 720x480 (I guess it is interpreting the pixels as square instead of 0.9091). Also, on the pc, there are black bars on the left and right margins. These don't appear on the mac. Why these are being interpreted differently by Quicktime on OS X and Windows?

OS X :: Changing Aspect Ratio In QuickTime Player X?

Aug 29, 2009

You used to be able to select "movie properties" in the previous QuickTime 7 but that option is not available in QuickTime X in Snow Leopard

Say, you have an HD movie which is on your hard drive, but in 4:3 format. You want to change it to 16:9 which is the widescreen format, to view the movie at its proper aspect ratio. You can do this in VLC, but my question is, How do you change the aspect Ratio in Quicktime Player X?

OS X :: 10.6.1 - Rearranging Spaces Visual Aspect Messed Up

Sep 10, 2009

I'm on 10.6.1 and if i try to rearrange spaces the visualization of it doesn't work properly. I can move the particular space but it's only a transparent overlay ontop of the existing other Spaces and doesn't actually move the underlaying one. It still works, just the visual aspect is messed up and it looks like a bug.

Applications :: Aspect Ratio Changed When Image Imported

May 28, 2010

I am making an animation using photoshop and istopmotion. I save each drawing in photoshop as a frame. When I import the image into istopmotion it changes the aspect ratio of my picture and crops some of the top and the bottom. I have tried to change the aspect ratio of my image to 4:3, 16:9, and lots of other ratios. When I look at the document setting in istopmotion it says the aspect ratio should be HDV1060 4:3.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Home Movies At Wrong Aspect Ratio?

Apr 28, 2012

I have a lot of home movies that were recorded onto a Verbatim Hard Drive Recorder in a .mpg format. These movies are in the proper widescreen aspect ratio when played back on my TV, however, when I transfered them to my Mac the .mpg video files became fullscreen. I had to use MPEG Streamclip and the MPEG-2 Playback Component to create true widescreen .dv files for iMovie. However, I was forced to to do an erase and reinstall of Leopard last week and I lost the MPEG-2 Component. 

I was upgrading to Lion though, and I had heard that the Component was no longer necessary as Lion had the capability to playback MPEG-2 files. I had assumed that Streamclip would also use this built-in MPEG-2 Component. I have upraded to Lion just today, but Streamclip cannot open any of the .mpg files claiming it needs the Component. Is there another Streamclip equivelant that can correct the aspect ratio with requiring me to buy another Playback Component? Or better yet is there any existing application on Lion that can correct the video shape?

How do I make the movies I download from the net Full HD or Blu-Ray. The movies that I download are usually something like 1280x550.

Compressor 4 :: Cropping 1920x1080 Video With 4:3 Aspect Ratio

Dec 6, 2014

I have a 1920x1080 video that I want to crop to a 4:3 aspect ratio.

I'm working with compressor 3.  

When I set "crop original" to "4x3 1,33:1", I cannot manipulate the cropping. It is fixed to left=240, right=240, top=0 and bottom=0.

This results in 1440x1080 4x3, that's correct. But what I'd like to do is crop the top and bottom, too, while keeping the 4:3 aspect ratio.

How do i do that? 

When I set "crop original" to "custom" (I hope I translated that correctly), cropping left, top, right and bottom is possible. I manipulate the red rectangle in the preview window  and the cropping changes accordingly. Now how do I tell compressor to keep the 4:3 aspect ratio while manipulating/zooming with the red rectangle? I don't want to calculate the cropping, this is way too cumbersome.

Final Cut Pro X :: Exporting Video With Right Aspect Ratio For IPhone

Jun 2, 2014

I often shoot short videos with my iPhone.  I bring them into FCPX and edit it.   

The problem is when I export it, it will have black bars on the side once its back on my iPhone.  It will never just export to fit the screen like it did when I shot the video.  I tried to customize the aspect ratio but it only gives me set options.

Final Cut Pro X :: Import NTSC Video Into Appropriate Project Settings And Keep Same Aspect Ratio

Sep 9, 2014

I edit on FCPX v10.0.9... (OSX 10.8.5) ...a client sent video at NTSC 720x480 DV... How do I FIRST import that video into an appropriate project setting without distorting the ratio (it keeps getting converted to 4:3 - narrower - and the original video is not 4:3)? and SECOND export and keep the same aspect ratio? I've done much research and realize that NTSC 720x480 DV is SD and FCPX wants square pixels etc.,My goal is to import the video, edit it, and export it all the while keeping the original aspect ration.

OS X :: How Do I Resize Images On A Mac

Oct 30, 2006

How do I resize images on a mac? I've had my MacBook for 4 months know I never knew how to do this. On Windows in paint all you do is paste the picture and then resize it by dragging the corners, is there a way to do this on macs? I can't seem to find a way to do this in preview. And in Seashore I don't know how to do this unless I manually put in the scale size I want. I simply want to drag the corner of the picture to make it the size I want, how can I do this?

OS X :: Can't Resize A Window That Somehow Got Too Big

Jul 2, 2009

My iTunes library is on an external drive, and I borrowed a macbook pro for this trip. The last time I opened iTunes was on my 24" iMac, so the window was pretty big. Now that I opened it on the macbook, with a 15" screen, the bottom is just not on the screen and I have no way to read the corner to scale it down. It stays like this even if I quit and restart.

OS X :: Can't Resize Window

Sep 6, 2009

I managed to make a window slightly bigger than the screen, and now I can't access the 'handle' in the lower right corner to return the window to normal size.

I was using screen sharing from another computer and some strange things were happening, and I ended up with my iTunes window a little bigger than the displayable area on the screen. If I move the window up as high as possible (so that it's up against the menu bar), the bottom edge is just hanging off the bottom of the screen, just far enough that I can't grab the resizing handle.

OS X :: Auto Resize Windows To Fit?

Oct 2, 2010

I could have sworn this was possible and I just can't remember how to do it. In Windows 7, the OS is able to resize the windows to where it splits the screen between the two open windows equally. I could have sworn OS X is able to do the same thing, but I can't remember. I have a lot of papers and careplans to right. Am I wrong or is this not possible?
