If you are a AMV creator or have read “A&E’s Technical Guides to All Things Audio and Video version 3 (BETA) ”, then you already know that you can resize 16:9 footage with lines like this
LanczosResize(720,360)
AddBorders(0,60,0,60)
But in my case, using Kino’s Journey as footage; the result from the above lines made the video look fat, widened.
To correct this I instead used lines below instead, which I came up with the original DVD footage dimensions as a reference point:
LanczosResize(720,408)
AddBorders(0,36,0,36)
With the above dimensions, the characters look more correct to the original DVD footage. I wanted to make this public to help others who were in my situation.
Comment if this helps!
