Odd rendering borders! Help!

[mv0930]

Whats with these big black borders around the video? Whenever I try to full screen it in WMP it doesn't change to full screen, it just has these big black borders around it. This is AFTER I export my movie from Premiere. The original clips do NOT have these borders btw. Am I missing a setting? Thanks for your help! [/img]

You are doing something wrong in premiere. How does the preview look like in premiere before you export? full screen? what export settings are you using?

My Export settings are:

General
File type - Microsoft DV AVI

Video settings
Compressor - DV NTSC
Color depth - Millions of colors
Frame size - 720 x 480 (grayed out)
Frame rate - 29.97
Pixel aspect ration - Square pixels (1.0)


I've tried to start the project using the settings for ''Video for windows'' and using a compressor like DivX. But still I get the same thing.

My gut tells me it has to do with these ''Action safe/Title safe'' options. Action safe is at 20% - Title Safe is at 10%. Thanks for your reply![/b]

Bump...? I'm sure there is an easy explanation.

Yep, it sounds like the action safe options. Try set it to 0%. It has to do with the TV overscan.
