Codex problems

[Nielsp]

Making a movie in MovieStudio12 my rendering settings are somehow bugged.

Selecting Video: 29,970 fps; 1920x1080 Progressive; Xvid Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1,457 gives this result(look picture)

Numbers up left corner and video don't fill out the screen - what am I dooing wrong?

Thank you!

Codex vs. Codec

You probably checked the box in the Xvid VfW codec to "Print debug info on each frame".

You don't say what your source is but you probably want square pixels.

Can't you just set the Display Aspect Ratio to 16:9 ?

The video appears to be 4:3

Thank you - debug info solved now.

Still have to get the video to fill out the screen - all settings I have tested wont fill out the screen

Source video is : 1920x1080 29fps - what Xvid Pixel Aspect Ratio will fill out the screen(16:9 don't fill out the screen)?

(16:9 don't fill out the screen)?

It depends on the native resolution of your display. 1920x1080 IS 16:9 --- so if your display is, let's say, 1920x1200,
then obviously the reencoded video will not "fill out" the entire screen.

@ El Heggunte:

There was a screenshot which is not visible anymore, it was heavily pillarboxed.

@ Nielsp:

I believe there is a confusion between the "Pixel Aspect Ratio" or "Sample Aspect Ratio" (a value describing how squeezed the encoded video content is) and the "Display Aspect Ratio" (the width in pixels divided by the height in pixels when the video frame is deskewed on the display). The "Picture Aspect Ratio" (the width in pixels divided by the height in pixels of the encoded video) doesn't matter much here.

The DAR shall probably be 16:9; it will depend on the encoded pixel dimension if it has to be deskewed to achieve this. If the original source had HD resolution, the SAR will probably have been 1:1, except for some AVCHD cameras which record anamorphic video (e.g. 1440x1080 pixels recorded, to be displayed as 1920x1080 pixels). If the original video had SD resolution, it will certainly be anamorphical, to be stretched while resizing to HD resolution.

Unfortulately, I can't help you setting up Movie Studio 12, I don't know this program.

A MediaInfo analysis of the original video (before editing it in MS12) may be useful.

I have now reset all settings and change size ratio from 16:9 to 1:1 and it has solved the problem for now....(there is something in the aspect ratio I do not understand - but at least it works now).

I use a GoPro Hero3+ in 1920x1080 and 1920x1440 to make RealLifeVideo for bike simulatores.
