Hi Khoi you got some kick as awesome videos thanks for reply.
i know the layout where you can crop top bottom but i want to change the 16 by 9 to wider format i try this on project setting 1920-917 from custom setting but will not let me click ok so i am stuck 16-9 any other ways thks Danny.

Not sure I fully understand what you are trying to do.

Do you just want to mask portions of a 16:9 image to give it a letterboxed wider look, or

convert a 4:3 SD image to fill a 16:9 frame discarding part of the top/bottom as neede to fit, or

Stretch an existing image in one direction to a different aspect ratio by "distorting" the pixels, or

Make a 4:3 image fit 16:9 while keeping the center pixels aspect as is and stretch the sides, or

Scale an image by different amounts vertically and horizontally, or
some combination of the above.

Thanks, I think I understand you right, 1920X917 is crop, so you go into the layout tool and crop the top and bottom as you like, then you can use Y position to reposition your video so that it won't crop out somebody head.

Edius 6.x no longer restricts Project Settings to old-school "television standards" so anamorphic widescreen is completely possible.

You can change the dimensions of an existing project as long as you don't expect to change the frame rate. While using an anamorphic lens, your camera will still create footage using "television standards", but using Layouter you can stretch the footage to match your Project Settings. Go to Layouter>Stretch>(untick)Preserve frame aspect.

Save as a user preset to copy to all clips an enjoy!

Thanks for all your help

here is a vimeo sample - 5d, 5dmkII, Anamorphic 35mm

here what i wanted to change the frame size

well i can live with the layout way .

Watched the sample video, but an unconvinced any of the footage is anamorphic. I expected the video to be something other than 16:9.

Is your footage actually anamorphic? Your link doesn't work for me.
If you need a really dumb way to make black masks, use Quicktitler with black rectangles.

oki will be satify with that thks

Hey Rusty!

Good advice.
I just got anamorphic lens for a smart-phone from http://www.moondoglabs.com/blog/photo-de-squeeze.html and this is what they recommend. However I'd like to do this in Edius-7 or E-7.5

Still recommend to use Layouter?

Cheers :)

Hello Mr. Kruzer, how's it going buddy.

If you are doing anamorphic there are two ways to do this, depending on what your target is.

First is to create a project that is the exact ratio of the de-anamorphic picture. Anamorphic lenses are usually anywhere between 2.35:1 and 2.4:1 Although they where originally designed for film and academy sizes, ones for digital cameras are slightly different and are designed for full sized and 16:9 sensors. Regardless, it's only the lens' aspect ratio that you are concerned with.

Let's use 2.4:1 In HD world this gives a frame size of 1920x800

Create a project that's 1920x800, or any other size that fits the aspect ratio of the source media. For instance UHD would be 3840x1600 Set your media to fit to width without aspect ratio locking. If you create it in layouter just save it as a preset so you can apply it easily to anything, maybe it can be saved as default? There's a global media import setting, but I don't know if it works by unlocking the aspect on fit to width. It's important to unlock the aspect ratio during the resize, as although this would normally be wrong, it's correct here as we are fixing geometry, or decoding the anamorphic pull.

This will now give you a project and GUI preview in the right aspect ratio. This is how you would do it if you don't want black bars, but doing it this way won't give you a video output from any attached video output card, as the resolutions aren't standards for TV. You can use these final output renders for web and computers etc. But they won't work for BD or DVD authoring.

The second way to do this is to use a standard video resolution, for instance 1920x1080 This way will produce black bars but will be compatible with BD and DVD etc. In this instance just use layouter to vertically squeeze the source media to a height of 800. Again, make sure to leave the width as is and change the height without any aspect lock.

Both methods will produce 1:1 decoded resolutions of the actual picture area.

BTW. I'll be doing a ton of tests with new Polaroid Cube+ including the BlackWing. The BW is perfect as the Cube has a magnetic base.

Hope all is well.

Cheers,
Dave.

Hey Dave!

Good to hear from you.
Yeah, this lens is 1.33 from moondooglabs.com shooting UHD not DCI

I'll give it a try what you've suggested.
Thanks

Could you post me a native file please, i'd be interested to how the sensor on the phone reacts to the filter/lens.

Cheers,
Dave.

Sure, give me a few days... it's raining like crazy here. We'll shoot something interesting.

I'll post here.

Cheers
