However, when I put the ABOVE file, after it has been converted to
avi by mencoder, into Cinelerra, the resulting edited file which
appears in the COMPOSITOR window is a zoomed version of the original-
ie, I lose part of the picture on all 4 sides. BUT, the TIMELINE
shows each frame as it should look - ie, there is no loss of picture
and all the details is therefore there as in the original recording.
I'm pretty sure it's because the track canvas size is smaller than the
video's and the project's resolution. Old annoyance, that has bitten me
time and again.
Do as Haldun suggested, right-click on the video track, and pick the
"to project size" item. That should do the trick.
Aside: Sometimes, smaller sized tracks ARE useful. But Cinelerra's
behaviour does not quite fit the "user model", obviously.
Thanks for the response, Herman.
I tried what Haldun suggested - without success.
What has me a puzzled is the 4:3 format followed by the 16:9 format in
the mpg file details (shown in the first post of mine). The original
film has a sort of 4:3 formaty look when it starts which then changes
into something like 2.20:1 format after a few minutes and then the
format changes to 16:9. So there appears to be 3 formats within several
minutes of the film (at the beginning).
