Question about resolution
[Post New]
I've been having a go at producing a video file with PD10 and I have a question about the screen resolution.
I've chosen 4x3 for my first videos. 4x3 is perhaps a bit vague... I wish I could have more control over the resolution of the file which is about to be produced.
Why? mainly because I wish to make frames, pips, special effects etc. using my image editor and the exact size of the files is a vital piece of information for me.
I've opened the avi file which was supposed to be 4x3 and I was surprised to find that the screen resolution of the file is 720x526

640 x 480 is the resolution that youtube recommends. When 720 x 526 is reduced to a 4x3 aspect ration, I get 640 x 512 instead... (not sure about the implication of this, as I've only uploded one file to youtube once :X )

Is this the usual resolution size for the videos which PD10 when choosing a 4x3 aspect ratio?
I'm a bit confused about which size I should choose when creating images on my image editor, as changes will happen when they are imported into PD, no?

Hi,
Images created in image editors are created with 'Square' pixels, and video pixels are (depending on aspect ratio) rectangle shaped pixels. Do a search and you can get a bitmap showing the relative sizes. Here is one I have.
I create my background as vectors at 1920x1080 for Hi def.
