Moira, You can use MPEG Streamclip to change the aspect ratio and/or cropping on each of the files. Open the program, select "export to quicktime" and then select the appropriate settings so you can make all of the files either 16:9 or 4:3. The default settings will allow you to easily make a 4:

Hi All, I saw a clip on YouTube a year ago or more of a performance piece involving film and "painting". I believe the artist was French--I'm almost positive it was from the mid 1970s. I could not find it. Does the following scenario ring a bell? On the screen a man is strolling in a rural lan

Hi Moira, To allow alternate aspect ratios you need separate Video Title Sets (VTS). I don't know the Adobe Encore abstraction for titlesets, but in Apple's DVD Studio Pro, they call them "tracks". I would assume that this functionality must be available in most DVD authoring software. Each 'track'

Yantra uses an edit of part of Henk Badings' Cain and Abel, an electronic piece. Lapis uses an edit of Ravi Shankar's Raga Jogiya, from the Ragas and Talas album, which was released in 1964.  But I believe Owen is correct, the track wasn't added to the picture until after 1965.  But the Whitneys
