Reveal X video 480x640 aspect ratio stretch issue in muvee

Postby tend2it on Mon Nov 07, 2011 3:43 am

Hi ... I have been using Muvee AutoProducer 5 with great success and recently upgraded to Muvee Reveal X ... In AutoProducer 5, I ran into an aspect ratio problem whenever I had 480x640 videos (created by a Canon Powershot SD850 shot holding vertically instead of horizontally ... then rotated 270 degrees using VirtualDub ... and converted to either xvid or mp4 using WinAVI) ... the image appears to be stretched after creating the muvee using any style. When I upgraded to Reveal X ... the aspect ratio stretch issue still remains. The strange thing is when the video is loaded into the project and previewed, it appears stretched initially, then it reverts back to the proper aspect ratio when preview playing.

But when the project is built into a muvee, the end product result is stretched ans scaled (making it look short and fat).

Is there any way to correct this through some default config files? ... I didn't see any settings control over video masking or sizing ... I have a muvee all ready to go for youtube, but the video generation is buggy making it not ready for prime time. Please advise.
Do you need the video(s) uploaded to your ftp server?
Thanks,

Think the problem seems to be related to Reveal X wanting to default and render the normal aspect ratio 640x480 instead of the actual 480x640.

Was there a resolution to this problem? I am having an issue with videos taken with my cell phone (480x640). The aspect ratio is not being maintained. The video is being stretched or squashed out.

Thanks.
