• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

Mpeg Streamclip X/Y Frame and Aspect Ratio Adjustment

At my job we publish a lot of locked 16:9 aspect ratio videos on the internet, and often times we intercut with varying other aspect ratios. For example, converting 4:3 into a 16:9 DVCPro codec by using Streamclip.

There are times, however, when I get some other aspect ratio like 16:10, and streamclip doesn't have a preset setting to adjust for that.

I made a pretty easy to use spreadsheet where you just fill in the X and Y frame size of the video your trying to transcode and it will give you the X/Y adjustment you need to display the video correctly for a 16:9 video (of if you feel comfortable you can adjust the base setting to fit any frame size).

Figure I cant be the only one out there thats hit this issue, so I thought I would share.
