Frank, You may want to check on those dimensions. What you gave would give a very wide, but short, video, with a 2.35:1 aspect ratio. Is this a widescreen clip? Or, maybe you meant to type 640x472? You also may want to convert the clip from the MPEG-4 to an AVI format to make it easier on Premiere. For that, you'll want to use ProCoder 2. However, I think the fact that your clip is an MPEG-4 is the cause of the majority of your problems.
Good luck, Glen in Vegas Frank wrote: > Been playing around with this problem.. Checked out Procoder, its > cool, but I have to practise with the settings..
